THE FORMS OF MEMORY IN PONCIÁ VICÊNCIO, BY CONCEIÇÃO EVARISTO
Abstract
This article aims to reflect on the forms of memory in Ponciá Vicêncio (2003), by Conceição Evaristo. It is about an approach that considers the novel by the Brazilian writer as an amalgam of the presence of collective memory, in a link that connects the past and the present, for, finally, project itself into a common future. With this, the writing is revealed, in its turn, as a matter of resistance, a mark of so many contemporary writings in Brazilian literature, in which the figure of the “subaltern” stands as a subject that speaks for itself, breaking the historical silence, as well as colonizing and racist thoughts. For this work, we use the reflections of Evaristo (2009), Barossi (2017), Oliveira (2019), Silva (2010), Pereira (2016), Schøllhammer (2009), Spivak (2010) and Foucault (1999, 2002).
