Um problema de princípio

This study examines narrative choices in anthropological analyses, focusing on the Xikrin drawings from Lux Vidal’s Death and Life of a Brazilian Indigenous Society (1977). It explores figurative experiences through dualisms in the drawings, while addressing authorship/editorial decisions via the author’s figurative techniques. Finally, it seeks a viable instability to anthropologically justify themes like figuration, memory, and (re)assembly.
