Abstract

From the comparative analysis of the novel Grande sertão: veredas (1956[1994]), by Guimarães Rosa, and the graphic novel Grande sertão: veredas (2021), by Guimarães Rosa, Rodrigo Rosa and Eloar Guazzelli, as well as from the analysis of literary criticism around the warrior maidens, we are interested in investigating how the gender transition experienced by Diadorim and his homoerotic relationship with Riobaldo are narrated and analyzed by the critics. We argue that the paradigm of transgender warriors can be a key to a more humanizing and less normative reading of the character.
