%X Os humoristas britanicos, especialmente Swift e Sterne s o tradicionalmente vistos como escritores que influenciaram a obra de Machado de Assis. Entretanto, foi o cr¨ªtico Eugenio Gomes que provou, com precis o, a sutileza e o bom gosto que Machado obteve dessa influ¨ºncia. Em uma abordagem contemporanea, torna-se interessante questionar essa id¨¦ia de influ¨ºncia e examinar, ¨¤ luz da intertextualidade, esse contato do humor entre as obras de Machado e as dessas duas grandes figuras da Literatura na L¨ªngua Inglesa. The British humourists, especially Swift and Sterne are traditionallyseen as writers who influenced Machado de Assis¡¯ works. However it was the critic Eugenio Gomes who showed with precision the sublety and excellent taste of Machado obtained through this influence. With our contemporary approaches, it becomes interesting to question the idea of influence and examine in the light of intertextuality this contact of humour between the works of Machado and those of these two great figures of Literature in the English Language.
