The human relationship with nature is an ancient practice and this affinity can be even deeper between women and nature. This link is narrowed by the fact that both are seen as subaltern and both marginalized by patriarchal power. Therefore, the present study aimed to bring from the book Ponciá Vicêncio, by Conceição Evaristo, an analysis of the mythical and cultural relationship that exists between black female characters and the elements of nature. Soon after, we undertook an evaluation of the importance of these black women in relation to of preserving the customs and culture of their people through an Ecofeminist perspective. Some analytical paths taken were: identifying the relationship between woman and nature in this book, subsequently, measuring what this link can infer in the construction of the black people identity, as well as in the appreciation of the culture of black people in this book. For that, we used as a method for data collection: bibliographical research, through the study raised in the theoretical framework on the origin and contributions of Ecofeminism, having as main theoretical interlocutors of ecofeminist studies - Ynestra King (1989) Vandana Shiva (1993), Françoise d'Eaubonne (1980), Karen Warren (2000), Mary Mellor (2000), Izabel Brandão (2003-2020) for literary analysis. And to base the expositions about literature by black female authors, as well as to think about the place of black women in society, we will focus on the theory of Patrícia Hill Collins (2019), bell hooks (1995), Núbia Moreira (2007), Miriam Alves (2010), Suely Carneiro (2003), Ângela Davis (2016) and Conceição Evaristo (2003-2005-2009).
