Envolvimento politico nos textos de Margaret Atwood e Dionne Brand

Abstract

This essay discusses poetic writings by Margaret Atwood and by Dionne Brand in relation to the theoretical writings by the same authors, aligned with other pertinent theoretical references, with the objective of demonstrating how Atwood and Brand produce works that are politically engaged. The central thesis is that the authors in debate denounce forms of violence and marginalization of subjects in processes of colonization and immigration, developing, in this way, writings that instead of silencing actually voice contemporary problems.
