RESUMO:

This thesis aims to develop an exercise in listening to the word production of the poet, thinker and activist mapuche Elicura Chihuailaf. The text is based for the conversation the book Recado confidencial a los chilenos (1999; 2015), and the poemario De Sueños Azules y Contrasueños, (1995; 2002). In 2000, ten years after the return to democracy in Chile, Chihuailaf published his Recado, in a gesture that intends to denounce the advance of national and international conglomerates in the construction of dams and the plantation of exotic species, which has resulted in a gradual desertification on soil and expropriation of ancestral lands. It seeks to draw the attention of public opinion in a writing movement that aims to destabilize the asymmetries in which the social, political and cultural life has been based, among the Chilean people and the Mapuche people, by making it evident that the depredation carried out by economic interests has deteriorated, also, the living conditions of Chilean society in general. The purpose of the operation is to bring the two peoples closer together, based on a historical and cultural revision, which should result in the refoundation of a plurinational state. The gesture used in the construction of the Recado is based, in turn, on the ancestral expression of nütram, the conversation understood as the art of listening, taken up and updated in a literary work that the poet calls oralitura. The non-specific translated in the presence of both a variety of subjects, modes of expression and “prose-graphic” forms, as well as the knowledge of the Mapuche people, the kimün, learned from the source heard by the stove, are the material that draws the poet's nütram . In the search for dialogue, the thesis is constructed, then, as an experimental writing exercise, based on a textuality in which features of the ancestral mode of expression are juxtaposed with conventional forms of western academic thesis. Along this same path, the thesis takes as its main subject the art of the word Mapuche, synthesizing its ancestral episteme reinterpreted by Chihuailaf, to review, through a mise-en-scène of this diversity alluded to above, its history, forms and fields of interest for which it is manifested today, and the way in which it is constituted as the main tool to face the conflict denounced by the poet in his Recado. Thus, this thesis defends the idea that this listening exercise can reveal both possibilities of questioning the official discourse, as a way to overcome rooted assumptions, as well as other ways to exercise literary criticism, from the idea of “ talk to ” instead of  “ analyze / talk about ”. The entire conversation seeks to dialogue with the ideas, descriptions, narratives and poetics staged by Chihuailaf, in order to make this voice the main theoretical engine of the thesis. The search for other ways  of building knowledge in Latin America is implicitly based on the ideas of epistemic disobedience, by Walter Mignolo (2010), decolonization and transmodernity, by Enrique Dussel (1994, 2015), and de-colonized practices and discourses, by Silvia Rivera Cusicanqui (2010, 2018). Finally, the thesis presents itself as a singular way of dialoguing with the poet's mapuche word, without the intention of constituting a gesture applicable to other texts of indigenous or western authorship.
