Resumo: In this paper, I discuss the historical movements that have taken place in Argentina and Cuba, especially during the decades from 1960 to 1980, aiming to offer a further insight into the political landscape of Néstor Perlongher’s and Severo Sarduy’s literary and non-literary texts. I try to point out, in each case, how the repression of homosexuality interferes with rightwing and left-wing politics, discourses and socio-historical contexts. Comparing their writings, I highlight their blunt refusal of either the gay repression or the victimization and ghettoization trends of the homosexual community - attempts to regulate the tense relationship between desire and community.

Tento apontar, em cada caso, o modo como a repressão à homossexualidade interfere nos discursos tanto da direita quanto da esquerda, problematizando a reflexão sobre o contexto sócio-histórico. Ao ler comparativamente os escritos desses autores, mostro a recusa contundente de ambos tanto à repressão quanto às tendências de vitimização e guetificação da comunidade homossexual – tentativas de normatizar a tensa relação entre desejo e comunidade.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2012-06-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/article/view/6966610.5902/1679849X69666Literatura e Autoritarismo; n. 19 (2012): Literatura e Autoritarismo: Espaço urbano e experiências de desolação e violência1679-849X1679-849Xreponame:Literatura e Autoritarismoinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/article/view/69666/46241Copyright (c) 2022 Literatura e Autoritarismoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAndrade, Antonio2022-11-20T19:05:33Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/69666Revistahttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/indexPUBhttp://cascavel.ufsm.br/revistas/ojs-2.2.2/index.php/LA/oaigla@mail.ufsm.br||jlourique@pq.cnpq.br1679-849X1679-849Xopendoar:2022-11-20T19:05:33Literatura e Autoritarismo - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false
