A poética do anônimo na poesia de Ana Paula Tavares

Abstract

Ana Paula Tavares was born in 1952, in the city of Huíla, Angola. Ana Paula Tavares was graduated in History from the Universidade Lisboa (1982). She holds a Master's. in the African’s Literatures and Ph.D in History’s Anthropology by the Universidade Nova de Lisboa (2010). Faced with the taboos imposed on women's sexuality, Paula Tavares confronts the woman's body and presents as a mysterious should de discovered. The writer presents a writing marked by themes that deal with women in Angola after decolonization, but all her poemas were published in Brazil just in 2011. This master’s work aims study the voice of the anonymous, who are these anonymous that compose a poetry of Tavares and how the poet uses her writing to give voice to the oppressed. The research has as a theoretical contribution, the concepts of comparative literature and influence by Sandra Nitrini, the distinction between sexuality and eroticism given by Octavio Paz in A dupla chama (1995), the concept of eroticism by Georges Bataille, studies about the body, offered by the feminist critique of Lúcia Osana Zolin and Eloída Xavier, as well as the considerations of the postcolonial theory of Thomas Bonnici. Studies on anonymity are based on Jacques Rancière’s studies like La palabra muda (2009), O fio perdido (2017), Políticas da escrita (2017) and the subaltern studies by Gayatri Spivak in Pode o subalterno falar? (2014), and on the Djamila Ribeiro's essay: O que é lugar de fala? (2017) and Notes on feminism was based in Studies of feminism by the Nigerian Writer, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, in Sejamos todos feministas (2015) and Para educar crianças feministas: manifesto (2017).
