Thinking decolonially from a non-academic enunciation place. Colonial wounds that inhabit heterogeneous bodies, spaces and times

Abstract

The main purpose of this work is an invitation to think decolonially from a non academic enunciation place, such as the folklore narrative of the Santiago singer-writer Horacio Banegas. From a qualitative approach, based on the proper narrative analysis, we will consider the way his work speaks of colonial wounds that inhabit heterogeneous bodies, spaces and times. One of the results that can be brought forward is the fact that the enunciating subject, in his saying and telling, lets escape a decolonial shout which emerges from a concrete experience, unfastening a many-century-lasting pain. This disobedient scream inhabits furrowed by power hierarchies.

The value of this work resides in the fact, that from the daily life spaces, it shows the way the production of knowledge is activated attending to the place geographical and historical perspectives. Finally, the research allows concluding that it is relevant and necessary to contribute to the field of the general production of knowledge in social sciences from non academic enunciation places, such as this case, in a way to recover voices and memories of the territory which have been turned into invisible entities.
