Resumo

Time can be chronological or psychological. Prost, for example, transforms seconds in long pages. In many other authors’ writings years, decades, centuries pass by the reader's eyes in just a paragraph. The cinema plays with time editing its scenes and the viewer watch a product whose time and space are dissipated and signified. In science fiction, time has led discussions about the unknown, presenting science the field of great innovations or the creator of great rashness.In The Time Machine, time reveals the future of post-human, something that no longer resembles what we know. On the other hand, in Dark, produced by Netflix, science is portrayed in a gloomy atmosphere and as pessimism concept. Both works discussed below seem to nourish from the incalculable power that time has on society. We aim to analyse time and narrative; science from the historical context of the creation of the works; time travel as a construct used by science fiction; mathematical theory of the fourth dimension; and physical theories regarding temporality.
