Resumo
This research has the general objective of explaining how the production of AfroBrazilian housing was and continues to be influenced by the African cosmovision and architecture. For this, it is expected to investigate the constituent elements of the housing archetypes of two African linguistic groups: the Bantu and the Sudanese, considering that both represent the largest part of the contingent of Africans brought to Brazil. In this way, in addition to architectural typologies, it is desired to understand the structuring cosmovision of the ways of living of such peoples. In this sense, it is expected to address the two perspectives of dwelling both in the context before and after the crossings, using the Bantu and Sudanese kraals in Africa and the quilombos in Brazil as analysis clippings. Regarding the structure of the research, it is based on the elaboration of a conceptual framework that guides and provides a methodological, theoretical and conceptual base at the first moment. In the second moment, the Bantu and Sudanese cosmovision is investigated in two clippings: in the African continent before the slave trade and in the Brazilian diaspora. In the third moment, the investigation about the living space is deepened in line with two theoretical discussions, which will help in the intended analysis at the end of the research. It is worth noting that due to the lack of literature found, it was decided to establish a conceptual framework that would guarantee the development of the theme based on the elaboration of its own research methodology. Therefore, the construction of an interdisciplinary methodological structure sympathetic to the decolonial and Afrocentric perspective is observed, as opposed to the Eurocentric logic historically implemented in scientific research, with cultural transcreation as the main theoretical basis. As a result, the urgency of the theme for the field of the history of Brazilian architecture is highlighted in a way that is consistent with the observed social, cultural and spatial reality. Despite the need to reduce the initial scope of the dissertation, there is an effort to contribute to the solidification of a field of research that is still little worked and of great potential, which is not restricted to the theoretical discipline of architecture, but expands to the field of architecture. rewriting of a historical record consistent with the Brazilian reality, which encourages representativeness based on identification and expands the referential baggage of Brazilian architects and urban planners, regardless of their ethnic origin.
