Resumo: | The article aims to reflect on the narratives produced in didactic books about the senses and the African civilizational references associated with ancient Egypt. The first part of the text reserves a (re)visit to some authors who discuss the subject from the African perspective and the theses of Afrocentrism and Afrocentricity, such as Théophile Obenga, Babacar Sall, A. Moussa Lam and Molefi Asante. Dialogue also with the readings that problematize the question of the Africanity of Old Egypt, but without following an Afrocentric affiliation, from authors like Elikia M’Bokolo and Ella Shohat. Finally, as the main objective of the essay, I analyze a set formed by three textbooks of History, approved in the PNLD of 2018, destined to High School. The intention was to see if the authors of these manuals shared the Eurocentric looks, marked by the modern / colonial / racist logic about this ancient civilization, or if, in their texts, an critique is given out and attentive to the historical protagonism of the African societies. |

A primeira parte do texto reserva uma (re)visita a alguns autores que discutem o assunto a partir da perspectiva africana e das teses do afrocentrismo e da afrocentricidade, como Théophile Obenga, Babacar Sall, Aboubacry Moussa Lam e Molefi Kete Asante. Dialogo também com as leituras que problematizam a questão da africanidade do Egito Antigo, mas sem seguir uma filiação afrocêntrica, a partir de autores como Elikia M’Bokolo e Ella Shohat. Por fim, como objetivo principal do ensaio, analisei um conjunto formado por três livros didáticos de História destinados ao ensino médio, aprovados no PNLD de 2018. A intenção foi perceber se os autores desses manuais compartilharam os olhares eurocentrados, marcados pela lógica moderna/colonial/racista sobre essa civilização antiga, ou se, em seus textos, enuncia-se uma crítica descentrada e atenta ao protagonismo histórico das sociedades africanas.Portal de Periódicos da Ufes2017-12-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufes.br/romanitas/article/view/1897010.17648/rom.v0i10.18970Romanitas - Revista de Estudos Grecolatinos; N. 10 (2017): julho-dezembro; 26-63Romanitas - Revista de Estudos Grecolatinos; n. 10 (2017): julho-dezembro; 26-63Romanitas - Revista de Estudos Grecolatinos; No. 10 (2017): julho-dezembro; 26-63Romanitas - Revista de Estudos Grecolatinos; Núm. 10 (2017): julho-dezembro; 26-63Romanitas - Revista de Estudos Grecolatinos; No 10 (2017): julho-dezembro; 26-632318-930410.17648/rom.v0i10reponame:Romanitasinstname:Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES)instacron:UFESporhttps://periodicos.ufes.br/romanitas/article/view/18970/13018Copyright (c) 2018 Romanitas - Revista de Estudos Grecolatinoshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOliva, Anderson Ribeiro2023-08-14T20:29:57Zoai:periodicos.ufes.br:article/18970Revistahttps://periodicos.ufes.br/romanitasPUBhttps://periodicos.ufes.br/romanitas/oaigil-ventura@uol.com.br || es.leir@gmail.com2318-93042318-9304opendoar:2023-08-14T20:29:57Romanitas - Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES)false |
