Questões de filosofia brasileira: em torno da crítica da razão tupiniquim de Roberto Gomes. 2024. 38 f. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Filosofia) - Departamento de Filosofia, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, RN, 2024.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/59723From the reading of the Critique of Reason Tupiniquim, a work by Roberto Gomes that carries out an investigative questioning in search of an originally Brazilian Philosophy, we sought to reflect on the concept of ornamental reason as a guiding element of research as opposed to a “reason” Brazilian philosophical truth that thinks about the reality of Brazil. Using a multidisciplinary methodology, historical and anthropological approaches were made around issues related to the process of colonization and the formation of Brazilian society, which reveal inequality as a factor distancing the people of Brazil, who understand themselves as Brazilian intellectuals. As a theoretical framework, authors from different aspects of thought such as Jean Jaques Rousseau, Ailton Krenak, Carolina Maria de Jesus, Antônio Bispo dos Santos and Luiz Antônio Simas participated, in this way, seeking to introduce philosophers from Brazil (with the exception of Rousseau) who work on concepts such as epistemological elitism, popular knowledge, original wisdom and decolonial thinking. The proposal is to promote a broadening of the understanding of Brazilian Philosophy, and to promote a dialogue that aims to get closer to our reality and situations that provide gaps for thought.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/FilosofiaTupiniquimDecolonialbachelorThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS
