The exposition of human tensions in narratives of Dinorath do Valle: a cosmopolitan caipira
Keywords:
Female Literature, Narrative, Exclusion, Violence.Abstract
The objective of this work is to present the narratives produced by Dinorath do Valle, an author who lived all her life in the countryside of São Paulo and is practically unknown to the academic world and the readership. Although she has been awarded prizes in several literary competitions and is among the authors reunited by Nelly Novaes Coelho in her Dicionário crítico das escritoras brasileiras (2002), Dinorath's production still occupies a place on the fringes, as do many other Brazilian writers. In order to reach the publishing market, she has built for herself the identity of a countrywoman, however, her writing does not stick to the themes of the countryside; it is extremely cosmopolitan, approaching the core of human tensions, many of them result of symbolic violence assimilated daily, as defined by Pierre Bourdieu (2002). Once published, she uses fictionality to give voice to narrators and characters who denounce the misery and inequality of the Brazilian population in a bitter and crude way. In the light of the ideas of Reis (1992) on the canon, Dalcastagnè (2012) about the place occupied by women in front of the literary market and Zolin (2009) on literature of female authorship, among other scholars, this work proposes to approach the literary work of Dinorath do Valle in O vestido amarelo, from 1976, with the aim of evidencing the quality of her narrative.
