strictily by means of an intratextual reading of the work. In that manner,
this pages are ruled by the question ¿which notion of justice is present in
the content of a fiction novel like Divorce in Buda? Such answer was obtained after proper philosophical-literary, discursive and legal contextualizations, indispensable for this dissertation. Among topics worked here, it
is found: exordium, on durability of art works; philosophy and literature,
a possible meeting; on comprehension, an opportune clarification; on the
novel’s content; discurses on law and literary discurses; notion of justice
in a novel; conclusion.
