Popis
Shrnutí:In a traditional representation, the Native American is often associated with a world prior to or outside of modernity. He is evoked as a being who has disappeared from the present times, relegated either to a petrified past, or to an eternal ethnographic present, or to the cyclical and timeless universe of myths. How can this not be taken as an attempt to deny the American Indian any possibility of contemporaneity with the one who represents him?Going beyond the principle of a "one-way history", the reader is invited to admit multiple perspectives on social and historical time, in order to better understand the links between the works analyzed here, the political struggle of indigenous peoples and the redemption of a historical past that was affected by the tensions inherent in the process of "colonization of time". Bringing together specialists on Brazil, the United States, Mexico and Quebec, this book examines such diverse works as the novel by Eliane Potiguara, Daniel Munduruku, Milton Hatoum, Carmen Boullosa, Louise Erdrich, the testimony by Rigorberta Menchú and Elisabeth Burgos, Ângela Ferreira's photographs, Ondinnok's theater, or Jair Bolsonaro's political speeches.
