Resumo: Three texts from Brazilian literature fictionally representing the colonial subject’s resistance are analyzed. The second canto of the epic poem O Uraguai, the female slave Bertoleza in the novel O cortiço and the short story Pai contra Mãe are interpreted by postcolonial theories set forth by Bhabha, Ashcroft, Fanon, Spivak and others so that the type of resistance against the colonizer by the colonial subject may be investigated. Although clues intimating transformation may be perceived in the characters under analysis, physical violence as a reaction against colonialism is dominant. A discussion on the ambiguity of such violence is provided, coupled to its possible replacement by transformation embodied by parody and irony.

O Canto II de O Uraguai, a personagem Bertoleza de O cortiço e o conto “Pai contra mãe” são interpretados a partir da teoria pós-colonial de Bhabha, Ashcroft, Fanon, Spivak e outros para descobrir a modalidade de resistência ao colonizador por parte do sujeito colonial. Embora sejam encontrados traços de transformação nas atitudes das personagens, predomina a violência física como reação ao colonialismo. Segue-se uma discussão sobre a ambigüidade desse tipo de violência e sua possível substituição pela transformação ensejada na paródia e na ironia.Universidade Estadual De Maringá2007-11-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://www.periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/ActaSciHumanSocSci/article/view/19610.4025/actascihumansoc.v27i2.196Acta Scientiarum.
