RESUMO:

This paper seeks to analyze Chico Buarque de Holanda´s work, Ópera do Malandro (1978), based on Gayatri Spivak's theory about the subaltern individual. In her text Can the subaltern speak? (2010) Spivak points out that the lower classes of society, besides being excluded from the dominant social context, have no autonomy or representation, since those who play this role are based on the ideological apparatus of the highest levels of society, and so the subaltern voice does not materialize itself. Chico Buarque, on the other hand, is considered one of the Brazilian artists who best represents the voice of the underprivileged people through the expression of his art. The Ópera do Malandro points to a character who plays a similar role in the social context of that which Spivak addresses. However, Buarque’s character manages to express her voice, even as a subaltern, not through a political discourse but through art. Spivak, through an investigation of Indian society, her country of origin, points out the process of colonization as the main element of the total impossibility of the subaltern exercising an authentic voice. It is exactly at this point where the spivakiana theoretical construction and the buarquiano artistic process point different ways, because in fact, Brazil and India present different processes of colonization, which in turn differentiate the path of history, and consequently the construction of individuals. Given these circumstances and the differences between historical moments, the trickster (malandro), appears as a subaltern individual who can establish in the buarquiana literary discourse where the subaltern can speak.
