Affections, musical escrevivências and imagery repositioningI am periphery! I am periphery!

Resumo

On the relationship between center and periphery there are differences in terms of imagery. The first is constituted by the idea of ​​superiority, beauty, prestige and order, while the second is seen in the opposite way, corresponding to inferiority, dangerousness, disorder, ugliness etc. This idea is embodied in the sphere of affection, contributing to the establishment of the center as the target of affection while the periphery of aversion. Song texts have been a historical ally for repositioning the imagery about peripheries, pointing out and disseminating potentialities. In reality, they are true “writings” (“escrevivências”), a term coined by Conceição Evaristo to describe texts that combine writing and peripheral life experiences. Thus, this article proposes a reflection regarding the outskirts of Salvador based on an affective interpretation of musical writings, in which peripheral black composers appear as creating their own discourses to confront the center and fighting for an imaginary supported by affections that reflect respect and admiration.
