Gaia: | The master's thesis “Mayombe e A Geração da Utopia, de Pepetela: romances históricos sobre a ascensão e queda da utopia angolana” proposes a study on Angolan Literature from the appropriate novels referred in the title. Pepetela, its author, used the format of fictional narrative of historical extraction to give representative voice to the Angolan people against colonialist subjugation, but also to its resulting consequences, in a post-colonial moment. It seeks to verify how the process of formation of the “new Angola” was reflected in the literary production of this famous writer, which was constituted at a territorial, political, and cultural level, by the driving force of its history. It was essential to achieve the objectives of our research the use of studies on the historical novel contained in The historical novel (2011), by Giörgy Lukács; the book Portanto... Pepetela (2013), group of texts organized by Rita Chaves and Tânia Macedo, in research on Pepetela's life and work; the book De Voos e Ilhas (2008), work with essays written by Benjamin Abdala Junior on Pepetelian aesthetics; and reflections on utopia and dystopia based on The Wretched of the Earth (1968), by Frantz Fanon, and The Principle of Hope – Level I (1954), by Ernst Bloch. |
