ENTREVISTA COM OSWALDO DE CAMARGO

Abstract

in 1990, i conducted two interviews with the writer Oswaldo de Camargo. Interested in the ways in which the “Black-i” was enunciated, my goal was to gather data and record the Camargo’s voice as he evoked his life before and after his arrival in Sao Paulo, where he became both a seminal figure and a link between different generations. in this unpublished interview, in which the poet Paulo Colina also participates, camargo discusses his formative years, the black associations to which he Beionged, his Existential crises, the black and white “Malungos” he knew, his faith and the position of black writers in brazilian literature.
