Acesso em:.https://bdm.ufpa.br/handle/prefix/5654This study proposes an approach to the concept of catastrophe within a corpus of literature written by indigenous authors. To do so, we use the work There There, by Tommy Orange (2018), a Native American belonging to the Cheyenne and Arapaho tribes of Oklahoma, in order to raise and analyze representations present in the work that promote the relationship between memory and catastrophe. The work exposes how Native memory is present in the new generation known as Urban Natives. Individuals are known as hybrid subjects, because at the same time that they experience their roots they also share the knowledge of the white man's experiences, highlighting the role of the Cities, the dominant society in making the indigenous a subject without their ancestry as it makes them insert more and more into a new reality, this is the catastrophic effect found in the narrative. Such aspects, present in this Orange's narrative, lead us to propose the category of Catastrophic Memory, as a possible tool in the literary field. To account for this argumentation we seek theoretical support from authors such as Michael Pollak (1989), Maurice Halbwachs (1990), Márcio Seligmann-Silva (2000), and Tânia Sarmento-Pantoja (2014).Acesso AbertoCatastropheMemoryNative literatureCatastrophic memoryCatástrofeMemóriaLiteratura nativaMemória catastróficaCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES::LETRASTrabalho de Curso - Graduação - Artigo
