DISCUTINDO NAÇÃO E GÊNERO A PARTIR DE FADWA TUQAN

Memória E Escrita De Uma Poetisa Palestina

Abstract

Abstract: This article aims to investigate the trajectory of the Palestinian poet Fadwa Tuqan based on her autobiography, Rihla Jabaliyya, Rihla Sa'ba, published in Arabic in 1985, in order to discuss the transformations of the Palestinian territory and population in the 20th century. Tuqan grew up in Palestine amidst the British colonial occupation and the presence of the Zionist movement, a process that culminated in the creation of the State of Israel in 1948. Thus, the article seeks to analyze how Tuqan constructs her personal history in her writings, paying attention to her reflections on social, political and cultural aspects of the reality of Palestine, focusing on her impressions on gender, politics and nation. Based on this publication, and the debates in the intellectual and historiographical scene, the article seeks to delve deeper into the implications of gender issues in national formation, crossed by the struggle for the liberation of Palestine.

Keywords: Fadwa Tuqan, Palestine, Nation, Gender, Autobiography.
