RESUMO

RESUMO O presente artigo questiona as normas e as formas de conhecimento sobre convivialidade nas literaturas caribenhas do século XIX, com o estabelecimento dos discursos de racismo e com a intensa negociação em torno da questão da convivialidade. Até que ponto é possível desafiar criticamente as construções essencialistas em uma época que ficou marcada na história como o auge do racismo? Pode uma observação mais apurada das representações de convivialidade nos levar a relativizar as referências canonizadas do século XIX, como raça e nação?ABSTRACT This article asks about the norms and the forms of knowledge about conviviality in Caribbean literatures of the 19th century, as the discourses of racism were being established and the question of conviviality was negotiated very intensely. To what degree it is possible to critically challenge essentialist constructions in an era that has gone down in history as the heyday of racism? Can a sharper look at representations of conviviality lead us to relativize canonized frames of 19th century reference, such as race and nation?
