OS SUBTERRÂNEOS DA CULTURA: APROXIMAÇÕES ENTRE ANGÚSTIA E VOZ DE PRISÃO

Abstract

THIS PAPER AIMS AT POINTING OUT THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEENANGÚSTIA, BY GRACILIANO RAMOS AND VOZ DE PRISÃO, BY MANUEL FERREIRA. AMONG THE COMPARATIVE NEXUS, WE HAVE SINGLED OUT THE HYPOTHESIS THAT IN BOTH WORKS THE AUTHORS EXPLOIT THE TENSIONS BETWEEN THE HEGEMONIC DISCOURSE AND THE DISCOURSES OF THE OUTCASTS OR – AS WE INTEND TO CHARACTERIZE THEM –„UNDERGROUNDERS‟. IN CONSIDERING THIS CLASH OF FORCES – CULTURAL, AESTHETIC, IDEOLOGICAL -, THE ROLE PLAYED BY THE INTELLECTUAL, AS IT IS UNDERSTOOD BY EDWARD SAID, WILL BE REGARDED AS BEING A DECISIVE ONE.
