Abstract

This paper will discuss issues related to concepts and methods of selecting research objects in the area of Literature, raised by the project EST.RE.LA – Study of the Relationship Between Literature and Art; Berlioz as a Novelist? developed at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and supported by a performance-based grant from CNPq. As a provocation, it proposes to consider Hector Berlioz as a novelist. In the context of the fraternity of the arts celebrated in the emulation and rivalry by the French romanticists, I highlight the double persona of Berlioz that is based on an exercise of creation that integrates the composition of descriptive music and a romanesque writing. This reading is complemented by findings from a research at the Brazilian National Library, carried out in 2016, during a training stage.
