SUMMARY:

Project aimed at the PhD in "Teaching, History and Philosophy of Science" (UEFS/UFBA), 2017. The author proposes that it is possible to identify a dialogue between high culture and mass culture, the first in the form of theories of science and the second in the form of detective fiction narratives, produced from 1840 onwards. The work aims to identify, in six detective novels, representative of the genre, essential elements of theories of science that have been produced during the period. The technique used is textual analysis (Social History and Frankfurt School). Five crime fiction writers are investigated: Edgar A. Poe, Arthur C. Doyle, Agatha Christie, Dashiell Hammett, and Patricia Highsmith. Two epistemologists are studied: Mill and Wittgenstein.
