Resumo
The research focuses on what has been called, in contemporary times, indigenous literature, understood as a new form of indigenous resistance and (re)existence, a powerful instrument to make visible situations silenced by colonization and coloniality, from the perspective of indigenous people, that is, it consists of investigating how indigenous literary works have contributed to the deconstruction of the image of the indigenous previously constructed by an European gaze that considered itself superior. Although this discursive production that we call indigenous literature is approached in contemporary times, this study seeks to place it in a broader socio-historical and political framework, since, according to the theoretical-analytical perspective adopted here, it is perceived as a subversion and confronting a structure that originates with the colonization of people and the territory we call Brazil and that has structured the way indigenous peoples have been represented throughout their relationship with the non-indigenous world, since the beginning of the European invasion, mainly through discursive production. In order to identify how semiotic resources are used in indigenous literature for the indexicalization of indigenous identities in contemporary times, the study focuses on identifying forms of construction and/or reaffirmation of indigenous identities from an indigenous perspective in the work “Ay Kakyri tama: eu moro na cidade", by indigenous author Márcia Wayna Kambeba; to analyze how the semiotic resources produced in that work break with the representations forged and naturalized by colonialism and coloniality and to show how contemporary indigenous writing contributes to a decolonial epistemological perspective. The analysis of the work is guided by what Worthan (2001) calls “indexical clues”, which aims at an interactional positioning from which we can understand which and how the resources used in the construction of the work show indigenous identity dimensions. In general, through these indexical clues, indigenous identities are sometimes decentralized and expanded, in order to incorporate intercultural flows, such as life in the city and writing in Portuguese language itself, sometimes they are essentialized in an oppositional way, through linguistic resources. that point to ancestry, collective struggles, native languages, rituals, graphics, the relationship with nature, spirituality and the common colonial past.
