Abstract

ABSTRACT This study analyzes Milton Hatoum’s narrative using the crônicas Um sonhador [A Dreamer] and Margens secas da cidade [Dry Riverbanks of the City] as corpus. It aims to ascertain the discursive and aesthetic characteristics of Hatoum’s literary creation from the dialogical perspective proposed by Mikhail Bakhtin, exploring the artistic-literary discourse of the Amazonian writer, the axiological positions refracted in his narrative. It also relates Boaventura Santos’ epistemological perspective about the waste of social experience in modernity/post-modernity, discussing the criticism of the paradigm of current rationality called by the author as indolent reason. Initial analysis based on these theoretical-methodological approaches show evidence in Hatoum’s cronistic narrative that brings it closer to a counter-hegemonic and responsive perspective of literary representation. Thus, with this inter-relationship among literature, dialogism and theory of knowledge, we intend to highlight the existing overlaps between the socio-historical and economic discourse produced by the critique of modernity / postmodernity and literary discourse of Milton Hatoum.

Crônicas弥尔顿·哈图姆:《后现代的对话与解放》

摘要本研究以《梦想家》（A Dreamer）和《城市的干涸河岸》（Dry Riverbanks of the City）为语料，分析了米尔顿·哈图姆的叙事。本文旨在从米哈伊尔·巴赫金提出的对话视角，探寻哈图姆文学创作的话语性和审美性特征，探讨这位亚马逊作家的艺术文学话语，以及其叙事中折射出的价值论立场。它还涉及到博阿文图拉·桑托斯关于现代性/后现代性中社会经验浪费的认识论视角，讨论了对被作者称为懒惰理性的当前理性范式的批评。基于这些理论方法论方法的初步分析表明，哈图姆的亲信叙事使其更接近于反霸权和回应性的文学表现视角。因此，通过文学、对话主义和知识论之间的这种相互关系，我们打算强调现代性/后现代性批判所产生的社会历史和经济话语与米尔顿·哈图姆的文学话语之间存在的重叠。
