Arúspices indianos, Kindzu e Surendra Valá: máquinas de guerra na geopolítica do Oceano Índico pós-colonial

Abstract

In Mia Couto’s Sleepwalking Land we see the cultural and political developments of Kindzu’s diaries in mozambican society in civil war. Kindzu, in his psicossocial formation, connects with the indian Surendra Valá, who teaches him about facts of the contemporary globalization. We are presented this way to certain geopolitics of the Indian Ocean which rebuilds to the portuguese colonization, exposed in The Lusiadas. We’ll reflect upon this transnationality between Mozambique and India. Such spacial mobilities are contemplated by postcolonial studies, such as Deleuze; Guattari (1997), Augé (2010; 2012), Anderson (1989; 2008), Fanon (1979), Spivak (2008; 2010), e Harvey (2003).
