O SAGRADO EM MIA COUTO E MANOEL E BARROS

Abstract

LITERATURE ASSUMES SINGULAR CONTOURS IN THE FRINGES OF THE HEGEMONIC COUNTRIES. BRAZIL AND AFRICA ARE TERRITORIES MARKED BY COMPLEX TENSION BETWEEN GENUINE ELEMENTS AND ELEMENTS IMPOSED BY THE COLONIZATION. IN THIS TEXT OF COMPARATIVE LITERATURE, WE AIM TO BRING THESE BORDERING EXPERIENCES TOGETHER, BY REFLECTING ON SACRED ELEMENTS AS SIGNIFICANT SOURCE TO FORTIFY THE IDENTITY. WE WILL PRESENT A COMPARATIVE READING OF MIA COUTO AND MANUEL DE BARROS WORKS.
