This paper aims at analyzing the different approaches to terror in the novels Players (1977), Mao II (1991) and Falling Man (2007), by the American writer Don DeLillo. In Players, terror is shown as something attractive and exciting to a character who leads a very tedious personal and professional life; in Mao II, it is connected to the kidnapping of a poet and the text brings up relevant debates focusing on the contrast related to the power of novelists and terrorists in society; and in Falling Man, the author reviews the tragedy of September 11, in an attempt to try to understand the reasons why the attacks happened. The novels show terrorist actions connected to historical processes and also to the present form of capitalism and globalization. Theoretical texts by Bauman (1998), Eagleton (2005), Freitas (1989), Fraser (2000) will be used to discuss the issues addressed in this paper.

September 11 has originated a wide range of artistic manifestations which have not only searched for plausible explanations for the tragedy, but also tried to review the events. In this sense, this paper aims at showing how a novel reevaluates this episode. The attacks made the United States experience a strong sense of vulnerability, triggering reactions from the American government, whose quick action was translated into a new national security strategy, associated with the war on terror. This paper analyzes the narrative strategies employed by the American author Don DeLillo in his novel Falling Man (2007) in order to reevaluate that tragedy. The debate of the topics is based on texts concerning the relationship between literature and history, postmodern fiction and issues on terrorism. This study contributes to enrich the discussion related to the events that led to the catastrophe and its aftermath, examining characters and groups linked to the September 11 terrorist attacks, revealing multiple truths subjected to social, ideological and historical conditions.

The central thesis that we aim to survey in this paper is that the present South-American political scene has required of the American imperialism a strategical redesign, in the sense of the neutralization, weakening and, if it is possible, destruction of regional political experiences/tendencies not aligned to its foreign politics. Under the mask of the defense of democracy and beneath the argument that Latin American "market oriented politics" are at stake, due to questions that goes back from the "delin-quency" —in Mexico—, the global terrorism, the organized international crime up to the worldwide drug traffic, the global strategy of American imperialism then sets up the definition of a new doctrine of preventive war that justifies the utilization of hard power against any country, in the name of its own defense. At the heart of the question what —actually— is in the agenda is the defense (and reproduction) of the benefits of its multinationals corporations and financial capital, by means of the international sub-traction of profitable assets, such as financial, energetic, communicational and natural resources, in addition to the domination of local markets, beyond facilitating capital flee amongst others.

O artista norte-americado Robert Mapplethorpe se notabilizou pela plasticidade de seus portraits em preto e branco, mas também pelo escândalo de suas composições, nas quais corpos nus, sobretudo masculinos podiam ser vistos em atos homoeróticos e sadomasoquistas. Considerada como uma arte erótica por uns e como pornografia por outros, o fotógrafo acendeu o antigo debate pornografia versus erotismo. Considerando que tanto uns quanto outros termos, só adquirem seu sentido estético, social e político se pensados contextual e historicamente. Tomamos as fotografias de flores deste autor, para levar a cabo este debate, dialogando, para tanto, com as contribuições de Michel Foucault pelas leituras da sexualidade enquanto dispositivo. Valemo-nos, ainda dos conceitos de ars erotica e scientia sexualis tratado pelo mesmo autor, para estruturar nossas hipóteses, nas quais as flores do fotógrafo são deslocadas do terreno relativamente seguro do erotismo para serem lidas como armas de um terrorismo textual (e visual), aquele que Barthes viu como capaz de 'interveir socialmente, não fraças à sua popularidade ou seu sucesso, mas graças à 'violência que permite que o texto exceda as leis que a uma sociedade, uma ideologia, ou uma filosofia tomam para construir sua própria 'inteligibilidade histórica'''.
