Das Konzept der »Escrevivência« von Conceição Evaristo als dekoloniale und interdisziplinäre Perspektive von Konvivialität

Fernando Nina (University of Heidelberg)

Speaker Series | Intersectionality from the Americas | Winter Semester 2024/25

Fernando Nina examines Afro-Brazilian author Conceição Evaristo's literary concept of "escrevivência" — a neologism combining writing (escrever) and lived experience (vivência). The talk investigates how this approach functions as a decolonial strategy for representing Black women's experiences in Brazil, emphasizing themes of embodiment, reproduction, and desire.

Fernando Nina is Acting Professor in the Department of Ibero-American Cultural Studies at the University of Heidelberg.
