Abstract in Portuguese
A proposta dessa dissertação é ler o romance A paixão segundo G.H., de Clarice Lispector, à luz das filosofias de Leibniz (via Deleuze) e Espinosa, atentando para os momentos em que cada uma delas predomina na obra. A primeira parte foca na existência de um sistema barroco, que faz da vida de G.H. uma construção harmônica mediada por uma moral e que faz do mundo um lugar marcado pela presença de uma sociedade hierarquizada, simbolizada pelo edifício da personagem. A segunda parte apresenta o processo de perda desse sistema a partir do encontro de G.H. com a barata no quarto de Janair. Já a terceira parte mostra o resultado da transição. O mundo moral torna-se ético, a hierarquia deixa de vigorar e o contato entre as coisas se dá por meio de uma comunhão pautada pela igualdade dos seres. Por fim, assinala-se que essa transformação não é perene, dada a forma espiral do romance. Logo, o mundo moral que se tornou ético pode reaparecer em algum momento futuro e, caso isso aconteça, o mundo ético também pode retornar e assim sucessivamente.

Abstract in English
The present dissertation proposes to read Clarice Lispector's novel The Passion According to G.H. in the light of the philosophies of Leibniz (via Deleuze) and Spinoza, closely noting the points where each of them predominates in the book. The first part focuses on the existence of a baroque system which makes G.H.'s life a harmonious construction mediated by a particular moral as much as it makes the world a place marked by the presence of a hierarchical society, symbolized by the building the character lives in. The second part presents the process of losing this system as G.H. encounters the cockroach in Janair's room. In turn, the third part shows the result of that transition. The moral world becomes ethical, hierarchy is no longer valid, and the contact between things takes place through a communion based on the equality of beings. Finally, we argue that this transformation is not perennial, given the novel's spiral form. Thus, the moral world that preceded the ethical world may reappear at some future time, and if it does, then the ethical world, too, may return, and so on.
