Reescritas da violência de Estado nas literaturas peruana e brasileira

Abstract

The reconstruction of state violence in the productions of Karina Pacheco Medrano and Jeferson Tenório is analyzed. These rewritings of historical events in Peru and Brazil focus on the representation of women, indigenous and blacks as victims of the state/patriarchal/colonial system. The objective is to demonstrate that the bodies of these subjects are considered by the state as "war zones" that must be (re)invaded to maintain social order. In this way, the narrative fills gaps in official histories, especially in the actions of the military apparatus against the population. In this approach between literature and history, we turn to Ricoeur, in notion of representation and Chartier, um the literature-history interface; on power, violence and the body as a war zone, the proposals of Arendt, Jelin and Quijano are followed.
