RESUMO

This thesis investigates the verbal configuration, the narrative structures and recurrent themes in some novels written by American author Philip K. Dick - The Man in the High Castle, Time Out of Joint and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? - in the light of contemporary narrative theory. Emphasis is given to the analysis of the subjectivity present in the historical text and to the constructivist approach concerning the perception of reality. Dick`s work was chosen due to the growing importance of this author not only for the study of science fiction, but also for the investigation of narrative techniques present in the historiographic discourse and in the postmodern literary discourse. In this perspective, Philip Dick`s work illustrates different aspects of contemporary society, such as the objectification of human experience and the musealization of the present.
