This study is part of the research field “Language, Subject and History”, due to its investigative nature. It involved reading, describing, interpreting, and analyzing the subject positions of black women in Carolina Maria de Jesus work Quarto de despejo (2014) in order to understand the shifts in meaning that construct this literary discourse. Our research aimed to comprehend, based on the functioning of the meanings in this discourse and the analytical devices proposed by Discourse Analysis: the different representations of the position-subject black woman in the work Quarto de Despejo. Thus, our objective was to analyze, through the mobilization of concepts, how black women are represented in 20th century literary work by extracting discursive sequences from the work that allow for the identification of traces of the social imaginary through the subject-positions of slum dwellers, writers and black women, with a primary focus on issues related to how they are perceived in the discourse. To achieve this, our main focus was on Position-Subject Representations, analytical categories as proposed by Petri (2004), considering that we are dealing with fiction. This approach allowed us to gain a deeper understanding of the condition of black women and their insertion into the literary discourse during a specific historical moment.
