Summary
In the presentation, Eduardo Sterzi, poet and professor at Unicamp, recalls that "the story of Macunaíma reveals itself, in the end, to be the story of a massacre (the indigenous and African genocides, both still ongoing, are summarized in the episode of the extinct tribe), and it is also, before and after the end , the story of a desire for survival and liberation, of those who, faced with death and the "immense silence" it leaves, have the strength to say that they did not come into the world "to be stone" – and that, in this way, they sing and constellation."
