Resumo: This article discusses the presence of witness traces in the novel Mayombe, by the Angolan author Pepetela. The problematization of the question is because of the pendular moviment between ethic and aesthetic, in which the colonial experience is put in an artistically very well-crafted literary form. It is sought to get the narrative closer to the testimony gender and to take proof of how powerful is the message of resistence and humanity through solid examples from the book and theoretical-critical material. Besides to check that the aestheticization of a historical event did not decrease the artistical value of literary book nor it weakened the importance of the historical reporting.

A problematização da questão se dá em função de um movimento pendular entre o ético e estético, em que a experiência colonial e o olhar (de dentro) de quem experienciou se inserem em uma forma literária trabalhada com extrema engenhosidade. Busca-se, por meio de exemplos retirados da obra e material crítico-teórico consistentes, aproximá-la do gênero testimonio e constatar o quão potente é a mensagem de resistência e humanidade nela presentes. Como também constatar que a estetização de um evento histórico não significou a desvalorização de uma obra de arte literária (por seu forte teor documental) tampouco atenuou a importância do relato histórico.Editora PUC Minas2023-12-06info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/cadernoscespuc/article/view/3098510.5752/P.2358-3231.2023n43p181-201Cadernos CESPUC de Pesquisa Série Ensaios; n. 43 (2023): Salve, Silas!; 181-2012358-3231reponame:Cadernos CESPUC de Pesquisainstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Minas Gerais (PUC Minas)instacron:PUC_MINSporhttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/cadernoscespuc/article/view/30985/21581Copyright (c) 2023 Editora PUC Minashttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCastro, Helder da RochaPaula, Marcelo Ferraz deSilva, Rogério Max Canedo2024-01-17T13:47:56Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/30985Revistahttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/cadernoscespuc/indexhttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/cadernoscespuc/oaicespuc@pucminas.br||cespuc@pucminas.br2358-32311516-4020opendoar:2024-01-17T13:47:56Cadernos CESPUC de Pesquisa - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Minas Gerais (PUC Minas)false
