Este artigo pretende discutir duas formas de contato com as acontecimentos históricos presentes no conto Quando o Senhor Pirzada vinha jantar, escrito por Jhumpa Lahiri em 1999 e presente na coletânea Intérprete de Males. O conto, em questão, retrata as experiências de uma criança chamada Lilia, filha de pais indianos e que cresce nos Estados Unidos. O primeiro vetor de seu relacionamento com os acontecimentos históricos foca no contexto de origem da família de Lilia, enquanto o segundo está interessado em discutir sua socialização com a história americana, mediada por uma escola nos Estados Unidos. Nos dois contextos, Lilia dialoga com a história e se posiciona, ao identificar diferentes formas de pertencimento, inscritas em narrativas históricas. Para essa finalidade, são relevantes aqueles eventos históricos que fornecem sentido à narrativa de identidade da protagonista.

Recurrent Theme

In the contemporary era, immigration, exile and expatriation are related to home, identity, nostalgia, memory and isolation. These are the recurrent theme in the diasporic writings of the post-colonial writers like V.S. Naipaul, Salman Rushdie, Bharati Mukherjee, Jhumpa Lahiri and so on. Identity is a topical issue in the contemporary study of culture with many ramifications for the study of ethnicity, class, gender, race, sexuality and subcultures. It becomes an issue when something assumed to be fixed, coherent, and stable is displaced by the experience of doubt and uncertainty. When a period of uncertainty and confusion upsets a person’s identity, it becomes insecure, usually due to a change in the expected aims or role in society. This identity trauma brings a sense of longing and loss as seen in Lahiri’s stories.  The present article focuses on the first generation and second generation immigrants adherence to the old and new land as can be found in Jhumpa Lahiri’s The Namesake. Lahiri represents her characters struggling to balance the two worlds that involve the issues of immigration, race, class, and culture.
