Abstract

The universe of bestiaries, fantastic and crime fictions (as a example, in authors like Franz Kafka and Patricia Highsmith) with its formulaic or original variations and interpolations (complex, seemingly endless),offered a narrative possibility within the framework of hybrid (between the descriptions and the conceptions, all evoked by the mimetical structure of narration). Villem Flusser and Louis Bec, in the end of the twentieth century, recovering something of the structure of the medieval bestiary and fantastic fiction composition in the Vampyroteuthis infernalis.
