Resumo: Based on reflections about subalternity and the way this concept is experienced in the peripheries of capitalism, the present article intends to analyze the theme of the marginalization process in the characters of the Brazilian author Ana Paula Maia. In order to carry out this research, the main focus will be on the works that constitute the saga of the brute men, namely: Entre rinha de cachorros e porcos abatidos (2009a), O trabalho sujo dos outros (2009b) and Carvão animal (2011) For this investigation, following the trail of subalternity, the formation of these characters from the brutal violence that strikes them is notorious, which brings as a consequence of the emptiness and the disillusionment of the world. In accordance with this process of deformation, the work emerges as an impetuous engine for shaping the identity of these men, because from the labor they perform, which demands from these characters a posture of submission, they begin to resemble animals more than humans. To build this cosmology of the debris of the urban centers, we will also inquire how the author manages to articulate the theme of marginalization to the process of deformation of the humanity of these characters. For this research, we will bring to discussion the contributions of Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak (2010) and Giorgio Agamben (2002).

Para o intento desta pesquisa, o foco será nas obras que compõem a saga dos homens brutos, a saber: Entre rinha de cachorros e porcos abatidos (2009a), O trabalho sujo dos outros (2009b) e Carvão animal (2011). Para essa pesquisa, seguindo o rastro da subalternidade, é notória a formação desses personagens a partir da violência brutal que os acomete, a qual traz como consequência o esvaziamento e a desilusão do mundo. Consoante esse processo de deformação, o trabalho surge como motor de amoldamento impetuoso da identidade desses homens, pois, a partir do labor que exercem, o qual demanda desses personagens uma postura de submissão, começam a se assemelhar mais aos animais que aos humanos. Para a construção dessa cosmologia dos detritos dos grandes centros urbanos, investigaremos também como a autora consegue articular a temática da marginalização ao processo de deformação da humanidade dos personagens. Para o intento da pesquisa, traremos à baila as contribuições de Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak (2010) e Giorgio Agamben (2002).Editora da PUCRS - ediPUCRS2021-11-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/letronica/article/view/3927810.15448/1984-4301.2021.3.39278Letrônica; Vol. 14 No. 3 (2021): Subaltern Characters in Portuguese Language Literatures; e39278Letrônica; v. 14 n. 3 (2021): Personagens Subalternas nas Literaturas de Língua Portuguesa; e392781984-430110.15448/1984-4301.2021.3reponame:letrônicainstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)instacron:PUC_RSporhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/letronica/article/view/39278/27206Copyright (c) 2021 Letrônicahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRibeiro, Natália Lima2021-11-09T14:32:09Zoai:ojs.revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br:article/39278Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/letronicaPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.pucrs.br/ojs/index.php/letronica/oailetronica@pucrs.br||ivanetemileski@gmail.com1984-43011984-4301opendoar:2021-11-09T14:32:09letrônica - Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS)false
