From the insurgent voices in the Poetry Slam movement to the reexistence of the slam of the mines: the aesthetics of the poetry of the quebrada by the manas, monas and monstras

The present study proposes an analysis of the poems by Roberta Estrela D’alva and Bell Puã, published in Querem nos calar: poemas para serem lidos em voz alta (2019). The poems challenge the notions of representation, mimesis, as well as the concept of poetics, in their classical senses, and approach the meanings of the poetic as a performance space in what goes back to the bond between body and speech, voice and performance, poetry and rhythm. Under the aegis of nonrepresentation, or anti-mimesis, the insurgent voices of the chick point to a social reexistence of both the poet and poetry itself, which are part of the movement of resignification of contemporary Brazilian poetry in an urban, street, peripheral context through the conjuncture of poetry slam.
