Resumo: Taking into consideration the political practice of queer studies, this work investigates how two memoirs by Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore allows us to understand straight temporality and its types of death for LGBTQIA+ people. Centering mainly on theoretical stances by José Esteban Muñoz (2019), Sara Ahmed (2006), and Jack Halberstam (2005), a critical reading of the memoirs highlights how the reproduction of paradigmatic life markers produce some life orientations as possible and correct while others are problems to avoid. At the end of the paper, it is argued that Sycamore’s writings contest and interrogate the structure in place while offering questions for new political movements for sexual and gender dissidents.

Centrando-se principalmente nos apontamentos de José Esteban Muñoz (2019), Sara Ahmed (2006) e Jack Halberstam (2005), uma leitura crítica das obras é realizada para sublinhar a reprodução de formas paradigmáticas de vida que produzem algumas orientações de vida como possíveis e corretas e outras como problemas a evitar. Ao final, argumenta-se que os escritos de Sycamore contestam e interrogam a estrutura presente e oferecem questionamentos para novos movimentos políticos para dissidentes de gênero e sexualidade.UFSC2023-08-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/article/view/9251210.5007/2175-8026.2023.e92512Ilha do Desterro A Journal of English Language, Literatures in English and Cultural Studies; Vol. 76 No. 2 (2023): (Re)creating possible futures or alternative presents through the artsIlha do Desterro A Journal of English Language, Literatures in English and Cultural Studies; v. 76 n. 2 (2023): (Re)creating possible futures or alternative presents through the arts2175-80260101-4846reponame:Ilha do Desterroinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/article/view/92512/54056Copyright (c) 2023 Ruan Nunes Silvahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Ruan Nunes 2023-08-22T18:12:31Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/92512Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterroPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/oaiilha@cce.ufsc.br||corseuil@cce.ufsc.br||ilhadodesterro@gmail.com2175-80260101-4846opendoar:2023-08-22T18:12:31Ilha do Desterro - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
