Fanon e a filosofia afro-diaspórica : desconstruindo perspectivas de embranquecimento

Abstract

The central objective of this research is to analyze the style adopted by Frantz Fanon in the production of the work “Black Skin, White Masks”. To do so, we start from the categories developed by Édouard Glissant in his studies on the processes of creolization and diaspora. The current historiographical production around Paget Henry was problematized, which places Fanon in a paradigmatic place for maintaining perspectives of whitening Afro-diasporic philosophy. In this work, we seek to follow the opposite trend, highlighting a gap in Henry's thought regarding Fanon. To this end, we look into the author's life and his contributions to historiography, without losing sight of the analysis of formal stylistic aspects and their conflicts with other aesthetic modes.
