REPRESENTATIONS IN PONCIÁ VICÊNCIO: from the marks of slavery, violence and craziness to black women.
Ponciá Vicêncio. Woman and black writer. Racism. Violence; Madness.
This paper aimed to provide reflections on how colonialism, the marks of slavary, violance and madness are constituted, mainly on black woman image which is focused on the black woman pictured on the novel Ponciá Vicêncio (2003), by Evaristo Conceição. It was also verified on what condition black Women write in Brazil as a way to think about the social place ocupied by the writer Evaristo Conceição. Regarding to the impasses faced by women in order to publish their production we sought theoretical support on authors such as Angela Davis (1981), Virginia Woolf (1929), Djalma Ribeiro (2018), as well as Conceição Evaristo while researcher and literacy critic. Authors such as Silvio Almeida (2019), Cida Bento (2022), and Neusa Souza Santos (2021) among others are resumed to support the discussion. And to think about black woman on novels, we resorted to Gonzales (2020), Bell Hooks (2020), Cida Bento (2022) and Silva Federici (2019) who are necessary to the analysis of this aspect of the book. It was varified that the book fits politically for bringing about a theme that reminds the fights for the rights of black women population because it critically presents the subject analyzed when it contemplates violence and the marks of the colonialism as well as the patriarchy´s, besides it presents a black woman as the novel’s protagonist as a simbol of resistence.
