Conceição Evaristo e a escrevivência: narrar a potência dos pobres na literatura brasileira contemporânea

Abstract

The contemporary literature has been the stage for discussions and problematizations of the categories that characterize the literary and constitute the motto of the productions that, together, constitute the literary instance. Characters and, mainly, authors from marginalized spaces socioculturally plead, with their productions, the visibility to their "places of speech" (RIBEIRO, 2017) and their intellectual potentialities. Like this, the present work discusses the literary production of Conceição Evaristo, Brazilian writer, due to the rise of the "Ex-cêntricos" (HUTCHEON, 1991) to the field of literature and the recognition of the subjective and artistic capacities of these Operated in his writing. The "escrevivência", term coined by the author, constitutes/directs the reflections about the uninterrupted dialogue between life and art. They are, therefore, the processes of alterity fought in the "Literature of Crowds" (JUSTINO, 2014), that configure the exchanges present in the "post-autonomic literature" critical activity guidelines developed here. In this sense, we aim to understand how the writing Semiotiza the many peripheral/poor who play moments of insubalternity and sority in the Brazilian literature, for this, we will especially pay attention to the black woman, guide mother of all "Ralés" (SOUZA, 2009), since it is the evaristiana figure that plays a crucial role in the abolition of all the foundations/bases of the systems of oppression, brokered by the devices of the patriarchal/capitalist control. Thus, by means of bibliographic research, supported by the theoreticians cited and in other scholars of the problems in focus, we will analyze three Evaristian productions. In the first chapter, we will discuss the soap-opera "Sabela" (2016), studying how the collectivities/communities operate processes of insurrection and perpetuation/expansion of their subjectivities and potentialities. In the second chapter, we will discuss the novel Ponciá Vicêncio (2003), investigating the mechanisms of resistance and the escape routes found to circumvent the dominant yoke. The collection of tale Insubmissive Tears of Women (2011) will be the object of reflection in the third chapter, in which we seek to understand how singular life trajectories are elements that foster collective demands for becomings with more equity-laughter and fewer hierarchies-Crying.
