TATIANA NASCIMENTO, AMEFRICAN THOUGHT IN THE ONGOING PRESENT

Abstract

This article proposes a discussion, based on tatiana nascimento’s thinking, of the pain/resistance/denunciation motif as a model solution for our scientific community in the scientific treatment of Amefrican literary texts. Examining the problem requires a dialogue between the essay by tatiana nascimento and a corpus of Amefrican literary works, with an emphasis on the short story “El espíritu Africano en Parque Capurro”, by Mónica dos Santos. Finally, the article outlines silencing as a category of analysis for literary works. As one of its hypotheses, it is highlighted how much interpretations from the aforementioned motif take the risk of implying a gesture of epistemic violence, in the midst of our doing-science, when we read Amefrican literatures [perhaps naturally] as literatures of our Others.
