Literaturas em diálogo: africanidades, afrodescendências, trânsitos

Abstract

Literatures in dialogue: africanities, afrodescendences, transits is the result of the papers presented at the Symposium Literatures and other languages in transdisciplinary dialogues: Afrodescendences, Africanities, Oralities, Transits and Engagements, at the XVII Abralic International Congress - Transdisciplinary Dialogues: Literature, Humanities, Culture and Technology, held in July 2021. The goal was to debate critical-literary issues around the production of African countries, especially Angola, Cape Verde, Mozambique, Guinea-Bissau and Sao Tome and Principe. It was also interested in studies that discussed themes of Afro-Brazilian literature and culture, highlighting its diversity and representativeness. The texts that make up the body of the book are organized into four dossiers, the result of the papers presented and of invitations made to researchers specialized in literary studies. About the invitations, some articles return to literary paths explored in the writing of their authors, in theses and essays, but that now are placed in different perceptions because of the poetic making and the historical construction, constantly revisited.
