THROUGH THE ALLEYS OF THE FAVELAS OF CAROLINA AND CONCEIÇÃO
ESCREVIVENTES LEGACIES AND A RE-READING OF THE INVISIBLE IN CITIES AND HISTORY
Abstract
Considering the escreviventes heritage of Carolina Maria de Jesus and taking on the meaning of heritage thought of by deconstruction, we propose a crossing of the texts by Carolina and Conceição Evaristo. Our aim is to move through the alleyways of the authors' favelas, in order to think about a way of reading the invisible in cities, using the legacies of "Quarto de despejo" in "Becos da memória". As a theoretical-methodological path, we adopted the rubric "legacies in deconstruction": reading by looking for other ways, in order to listen to the silenced voices and invisible places in history. Advancing in this theorization, in the wake of what has been defended by Luciana Pimenta, within the Legentes Research Group, we will work on the production of a Literary Law, a Law that has in the reading experience its main theoretical operator and seeks in Literature the source and support of the re-signification and re-writing of the History of Law, which includes, in addition, the meanings constructed by each reading/legence practice.
