SUMMARY:

This dissertation analyzes the character Iñe-e, protagonist of the literary work The Jaguar's Roara novel (O som do rugido da onça, 2021), by Micheliny Verunschk, through the anthropological theories of Eduardo Viveiros de Castro, especially those contained in the works Cannibal Metaphysics (2018) and The Inconstancy of the Wild Soul (2020). The analysis aims to identify and understand the central aspects of the character related to Amerindian perspectivism, multinaturalism, symbolic cannibalism, and the inconstancy of the soul. Furthermore, the character Iñe-e is approached in her shamanic dimension, theoretically grounded in the work Oniska: Poetics of Shamanism in Amazonia (Oniska: poética do xamanismo na amazônia, 2011) by Pedro de Niemeyer Cesarino, highlighting her abilities as a mediator between different worlds – human, animal, and spiritual – and exploring how these capacities influence her narrative and ontological trajectory. Thus, the present study is situated among those that utilize the possible relationships between literature and anthropology, enriching the critical interpretation of the literary work through an interdisciplinary approach.
