One Story and a Thousand and One Threads: Rediscovering History, Creating Stories in Margaret Atwood’s Alias Grace

Resumo

This work analyzes Margaret Atwood’s  Alias Grace in order to discuss the strategies employed to intersect and articulate elements related to history and story, which are used to create a text that, by giving voice to a female character, re-writes an episode of Canadian history and questions the traditional discourses of the nineteenth century.
