Resumo: This essay will discuss Gilberto Freyre's notions about the “luso-tropical civilization” and the “mixed blood”, connecting them to the current public debate in Brazil about racial identity and the statement of the suburbs inhabitants against the social differences and the historical process of discrimination.  Such themes will be developed in the Brazilian novel in the urban violence entanglements, produced since the 70's, as well as in the recent movement self-described at “marginal literature”. Finally, the text will investigate one of the last work of the Angolan writer Agualusa, as an emblem of a specific lineage of the Brazilian thought, which forecasts the “quadroon” as a political horizon.

Tais temas serão desenvolvidos no romance Brasileiro nas tramas de violência urbana, produzidas desde os anos 1970, tanto quanto no recente movimento auto-descrito como “literatura marginal”. Finalmente, o texto investigará um dos últimos trabalhos do escritor angolano Agualusa, como um emblema de uma linhagem especifica do pensamento brasileiro, que pressente a “mestiçagem” como horizonte político.ABEC Brasil2008-08-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleArtigo avaliado por paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uff.br/revistaabril/article/view/2983910.22409/abriluff.v1i1.29839ABRIL – NEPA / UFF; Vol. 1 No. 1 (2008): CONTEMPORANEOUS REPRESENTATIONS OF SUBJECTIVITY; 66-73Abril – NEPA / UFF; v. 1 n. 1 (2008): REPRESENTAÇÕES CONTEMPORÂNEAS DA SUBJETIVIDADE; 66-731984-209010.22409/abriluff.v1i1reponame:Abril (Niterói)instname:Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)instacron:UFFporhttps://periodicos.uff.br/revistaabril/article/view/29839/17380Copyright (c) 2018 Abril – NEPA / UFFinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDias, Ângela Maria2019-08-09T09:31:00Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/29839Revistahttps://periodicos.uff.br/revistaabrilPUBhttps://periodicos.uff.br/revistaabril/oairevistaabril@vm.uff.br||nepa@vm.uff.br||uffnepa@gmail.com||idafalves@gmail.com1984-20901984-2090opendoar:2019-08-09T09:31Abril (Niterói) - Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)false
