Fosso Abaixo: um projeto experimental em produção editorial

Abstract

The following experimental project report aims to propose a digital book that represents, through an allegoric narrative and its graphic design, the experience of suffering from depression with the purpose to help patients with this disorder to fight it. We justify our project’s relevance by research results that show depression as being the greatest cause of incapacitation worldwide. In order to do it, we make use of literary theory, bibliotherapy and design studies, as well as of online publishing tools that grant an easier access to said book.
