Decoloniality of nature
For a look as clear as a sunflower
Keywords:
Mozambique, Literature and environment, Environmental racism, Mia CoutoAbstract
The environment is presented in the literature, whether represented by the imaginary ideal of poetics engendered in the inseparable relationship of man with nature, or through relations with real events that go beyond fictional aesthetics. This article presents a reflection on the perspective of ecocriticism thinking in the tale ‘A Princesa russa’, from the book Cada homem é uma raça by the Mozambican writer Mia Couto. From the analysis of representative excerpts, the study was conducted through ecocriticism reflection to highlight environmental issues. The analysis offers a perception related to the problems that arise from the pressure on the environment and environmental racism arising from human exploitation and natural resources.
