Insubmissive writing of history(s): epistemic crossings from the narratives of women on the margins

Abstract

The insurgencies of the subjects on the margins provoke continuous and non-linear movements of questioning the Western, white, cisheteropatriarchal, Eurocentric matrix, which highlights the need to incorporate epistemes, knowledges, doings and knowledge hitherto denied by modern science and hegemonic academic production in universities. Such movements have generated an academic and political "overflow" towards a new perception of the creative condition that drives the intersections between these diverse fields of knowledge and marginalized experiences.   In view of this implosion of the canons, the purpose of this article is to reflect on the theoretical, epistemological and methodological dislocations in the writing of history, based on research with landless women in Goiás.  I propose, in this way, to make a brief incursion into the hegemonic historical matrix in order to identify some of the initiatives to incorporate the subjects and subjects on the margins, specifically highlighting the transition from a history of women and gender relations to a feminist, decolonial and intersectional perspective. Also in this context, I seek to highlight how the intersections of race, class, gender, generation, dispossession, among other markers, which cross through the bodies of these women on the margins, provoke readings and unsubmissive writings through this historiographical canon and the academic/scientific production still based on Western rationality.
