| Sumario: | Literature, as a political act, places itself as a space for the construction of the identity of groups inserted in a particular social context. In the Brazilian literary contemporaneity there is a growing movement in favor of the construction of spaces of multiple voices, which are sociopolitical and culturally marginalized. Carolina Maria de Jesus, black woman, slum dweller and with only two years of study, is such an example. From the analysis of the novel Pedaços da fome, published in 1963, it becomes possible to observe the glimpse of the marginal to the non-marginal, expressed, above all in the configuration and relation of Carolina with her characters Maria Clara Fagundes and Paulo Lemes. The choice of the novel genre, as well as its textual options, which also do not occur randomly, there is intrinsic to the textual weaving to the pedagogical project, which the writer will put into practice. They are discussions through the theoretical basis as Bastos (2006), Candido (2004), Robert (2008), among others. |
