Samba as minor literature

Abstract

The article aims to investigate, in terms of structuring of thought, the contributions of Deleuze, Guattari and Foucault's way of doing philosophy, given the samba as an artistic and political process of (re)existence. In other words, how the internal and external criticism of these authors to modernity rearranges the ways of doing research on samba, since a History of Samba is insufficient, as well as a Social Psychology as, perhaps, a Psychology of the Masses, too. Because the real, as the subject's object, is devoid of objectivity, since, in every real, subject and object are composed of a multiple unity of the movement of being life. Therefore, knowledge as life is not an acquisition outside of life, beyond the knower and the known collective. Insofar as it is perspective, knowledge is formulated in the always fluid rearrangements of a will to power as the exercise of a tragic philosophy.
