| Sumario: | This article aims to study the work Eldorado Orphans by Miltom Hatoum, taking into account, in this unique narrative, the amazonian space as a place of production of diversified senses. From the metaphorization of the words “orphans” and “eldorado”, Hatoum subtly discloses cultural and identity confluences among those who live in the Amazon, whether the natives with their own symbolical systems or other men who came up later thirsting for wealth and power. The discussion here is about space and time as essential elements for the comprehension of identity marks established through out the historical and literary evolution of the native peoples and their conflicts and acceptance of a pacific living with the explorer. We also aim to investigate some cultural aspects, especially those linked to family, hierarchy and the possession of material and moral assets. Mediated by “incomplete” voices, the idea is to articulate crisscrossed discourses which deny to legitimate themselves at the “family building”, also metaphorical as a reminiscence of a silent past abruptly shattered by modernity. |
