Resumo: This article intends to defend the argument that there is no “formation” at stake in Sozaboy, novel by writer and political and environmental activist Ken Saro-Wiwa, at least not according to the terms of the Bildung or the Bildungsroman. In order to present this thesis, the text is divided into two fundamental parts. First, it presents a brief introduction to the historical meaning of the concepts here discussed, “formation” (Bildung) and “novel of formation” (Bildungsroman). After that, the article analyzes the novel Sozaboy, noting that, less than a “novel of formation,” Saro-Wiwa describes a singular deformative process, which, as such, requires from the reader another epistemology, a negative epistemology concerning the destruction of the subject.

Para apresentar o argumento em questão, o texto divide-se em dois momentos fundamentais: primeiramente, realiza uma rápida introdução ao significado histórico dos conceitos que aqui nos cabem, “formação” (Bildung) e “romance de formação” (Bildungsroman); a seguir, tomando como pano de fundo a exposição realizada, o artigo analisa o romance Sozaboy, assinalando que, menos que um “romance de formação”, Saro-Wiwa descreve um processo deformativo singular, que, como tal, pede do leitor uma outra epistemologia, uma epistemologia negativa da destruição do sujeito.   Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2017-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/article/view/2865110.5902/1679849X28651Literatura e Autoritarismo; n. 30 (2017): Literatura e Autoritarismo: Crítica a violência e exclusão1679-849X1679-849Xreponame:Literatura e Autoritarismoinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttp://periodicos.ufsm.br/LA/article/view/28651/17177Copyright (c) 2017 Literatura e Autoritarismoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCechinel, AndréStakonski Cechinel, Michelle Maria2022-03-06T01:20:39Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/28651Revistahttps://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:2022-03-06T01:20:39Literatura e Autoritarismo - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false
