Resumo: This paper, through a reading of the novel A Psalm for the Wild-Built (2022), by Becky Chambers, argues for the ability of science fiction to create other ways of inhabiting the world, and examines the ways in which this genre can help us come up with alternative ways to live – and die – better in a world in crisis. In order to understand how the genre of science fiction can help us “stay with the trouble” and think about more harmonic, inclusive and caring ways of inhabiting the world, we engage with Donna Haraway's (2016) reflections on SF and explore the issues of vulnerability as described by Judith Butler (2019; 2021), as well as the notions of fiction in Ursula Le Guin's “The Carrier Bag Theory of Fiction” (1989) and the discussion about care in Maria Puig de la Bellacasa's work (2012; 2017).

Para desenvolver tal reflexão, o estudo será pautado pela discussão de Donna Haraway (2016) sobre SF e irá explorar as questões de vulnerabilidade de Judith Butler (2019; 2021), de ficção como bolsa de Ursula Le Guin (1989) e a discussão sobre o cuidado, como desenvolvida por Maria Puig de la Bellacasa (2012; 2017), a fim de entender como o gênero da ficção científica pode nos ajudar a permanecer com o problema e nos auxiliar a pensar em maneiras mais harmônicas, inclusivas e cuidadosas de habitar o mundo.UFSC2023-08-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/article/view/9222010.5007/2175-8026.2023.e92220Ilha 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/92220/54050Copyright (c) 2023 Marina Pereira Penteado, Jade Bueno Arbohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPenteado, Marina Pereira Arbo, Jade Bueno 2023-08-22T18:10:06Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/92220Revistahttp://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:2023-08-22T18:10:06Ilha do Desterro - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
