Apresentação do dossiê: margens, poder e insurgências na América latina
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-06) SILVA, Tiago Lemões da; LOBO, Janaina Campos; CLAUDINO, Livio Sergio Dias; SOUSA, Rosângela do Socorro Nogueira de
When we take Latin America as a locus of reflection, in its multiplicity of cultures, cosmologies, ways of existing and resisting, it is inevitable to focus on the relationship between modernity, the State, violence and racism, articulated with local forms of power in societies marked by experience colonizer and by what Achille Mbembe considers as efabulation processes, expressed by the fallacious invention of statements about the inhuman and savage inferiority of certain populations. The flow of historical processes of domination and oppression that still run through the open veins of Latin America, however, has never ceased to face insurgent collectivities that, in rural and urban contexts, (re)invent other identities and narratives, confronting mechanisms of subjugation and silencing, destabilizing state production in “non-law zones”, affirming subalternized identities and fighting for changes in power relations from the margins of the State, in the sense attributed by Veena Das and Deborah Poole

A natureza do feminino decolonial no romance latino-americano: representações ecofeministas em Eva Luna e tropical sol da liberdade
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-01-28) LARANJEIRA, Jéssika Vales; ALMEIDA, Carlos Henrique Lopes de; //lattes.cnpq.br/9511564560016368
In the latin american literature, especially those created by women, there is a curious succession of narratives that relate, somehow, women and Nature explorations. This perception evidences a need to articulation several critical perspectives to expand the delecolonial ecofeminist criticism scope. Thereby, this work aims to identify ecofeminist representations as mechanisms of resistance to coloniality in the novels Eva Luna (1987), by chilean Isabel Allende, and Tropical Sol da Liberdade (1988), by brazilian Ana Maria Machado. For this, this research was developed under a qualitative deductive approach of a theoretical nature based on two analysis categories: the care relationships and the sensitive perceptions about the Nature. In theoretical corpus, the following stand out: Zinani (2013) and Navarro (1995) about women in literature; Perrot (2017) about the historicity of women as a social category; Quijano (2005 and 2008) and Lugones (2008 and 2010) about Latin American decoloniality; Kheel (1993) and Shiva (2001, 2003 and 2018) about ecofeminist philosophy and Candau (2016), Bosi (1994) and Sarlo (2007) about memory, identity and resistance, themes that frequently involve the analyzed narratives. As comparative results between the novels, two similarities of ecofeminist resistance and subversion to coloniality were identified: the valorization/resignification of feminized care work and writing as a way to become marginalized female perspectives visible.

Quando a arte engajada se insurge contra a violência de Estado: a hora dos ruminantes e a luta política, da literatura ao cinema
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-06) MELLO, Marcelo Cordeiro de
Our starting point is a discussion about the committed art and political resistance to which filmmaker Luiz Sergio Person and critic-screenwriter Jean-Claude Bernardet respond, especially, magical realism and Third World Cinema. The duo Person and Bernardet is an original voice within the Sixties. We analyze their production, from the feature film The case of the Naves brothers – which dared to denounce torture and state violence in Brazilian military dictatorship – up to the non-filmed screenplay The plague of the ruminants, a manifesto of insurgency and resistance against the violence of the Military Dictatorship. Finally, we will speak about the film that Person made at the most violent moment of the Dictatorship, Procession of the Dead, a fantasy that brought into playing real political elements of Latin America at the time, such as rural guerrillas and the death of Che Guevara.
