Este artigo analisa como é que Portugal ”imaginou” as ex-colónias através do cinema focando a produção de filmes feitos quer para projecção de Portugal como potência colonial nas exposições internacionais entreguerras quer para fixação das grandes exposições nacionais de afirmação e legitimação do regime ditatorial do Estado Novo português. A análise da instrumentalização do cinema pela propaganda colonial ocidental só agora começa a ser feita, mas se comprova a necessidade de uma investigação abrangente para melhor compreensão do uso propagandista do cinema, pela ditadura portuguesa, para promover a polática colonial. Na investigação pós-doutoral em curso, intitulada ””˜Cinema Império”™. Portugal, França e Inglaterra, representações do império no cinema”, analiso as representações cinematográficas coloniais na longa duração. Neste artigo, porém, analiso especificamente a produção portuguesa de filmes para participação (e sobre as) nas grandes exposições coloniais nacionais ”“ Colonial, do Porto, e Exposição do Mundo Português, em Lisboa ”“ e internacionais ”“ Sevilha, Antuérpia e Paris ”“ entre 1930 e 1940. Que filmes foram feitos, por quem e para quem? Com que propósitos? Que representações propuseram? ”“ são estas as questões que abordo, através da análise fálmica e de algumas fontes documentais que ainda não tinham sido referenciadas.Palavras chave: Cinema colonial. Exposições internacionais. Propaganda colonial. Estado Novo.”EMPIRE CINEMA”: the colonial projection of the Portuguese ”˜Estado Novo”™ in the films of the exhibitions between the World WarsAbstract: This article analyses how Portugal ”imagined” its former colonies through the cinema focusing on a production of films made for the projection of Portugal as a colonial power in the international expositions between the Twentieth Century World Wars or for the registration of the great national exhibitions of affirmation and legitimation of the Estado Novo dictatorial regime. The analysis of the uses of cinema by Western colonial propaganda has begun to be made only recently. There are few studies on how the cinema has represented the former colonies. They confirm the need for a comprehensive investigation for a better understanding of the propagandist use of cinema, especially by the Portuguese dictatorship, to promote colonial politics. In my ongoing postdoctoral research, entitled ””™Empire Cinema”™. Portugal, France, and England, representations of the empire in the cinema”, I analyse the colonial cinematographic representations in the ”long-duration”. In this article, however, I specifically analyse the Portuguese production of films for projection in (and also the films produced about) the great national expositions ”“ the Colonial Exposition, at Porto, and the ”Portuguese World” Exposition, in Lisbon - and international expositions - Seville, Antwerp and Paris - between 1930 and 1940. What movies were made, by whom and for what audiences? For what purposes? What colonial representations did they propose? - these are the questions I address, through film analysis and some documentary sources that have not yet been referenced.Keywords: Colonial cinema.

El análisis de la instrumentalización del cine por la propaganda colonial occidental es reciente, pero se comprueba la necesidad de una investigación más abarcadora para una mejor comprensión del uso propagandista del cinema por la dictadura portuguesa, con el fin de promover la polática colonial.

Full textAbstract:
As part of recent research into the Portuguese colonial war in the sphere of memory studies, this article seeks to fill a gap in the underexplored field of digital memories. It aims, firstly, to explore the processes through which discourses about the Portuguese colonial war are produced in the Portuguese version of Wikipedia, looking at its dynamics and mechanisms of construction, including formal and informal rules; and secondly, to analyse that discourse using theoretical and methodological considerations from critical discourse analysis (CDA), complemented with concepts of absence and silence, which enable a reflection on the relationship between power, knowledge and memory. The article also explores the limits of Wikipedia as regards the formation of collaborative narratives about the past, arguing that they are marked by the reproduction of Eurocentric narratives which circulate in political, educational and media discourses, and also by the memories of more conservative sectors of Portuguese society, such as war veterans and former settlers returning from the colonies (the so-called retornados). These narratives mask the colonial violence and resistance to it that preceded the colonial war and depoliticize the struggle of the national liberation movements.

Full textAbstract:
O esplendor de Portugal, romance publicado pelo escritor português António Lobo Antunes em 1997, representa o declínio da ação colonial portuguesa na África a partir do retrato de uma tradicional família de colonos em Angola no contexto do pós-independência e da guerra civil. A figura da casa da família, localizada em uma fazenda na Baixa do Cassanje, passa a ser o elemento fundamental para a compreensão das relações de poder decorrentes daquela sociedade. É a partir das memórias das vivências de quatro membros da família no local (Isilda, Carlos, Rui e Clarisse), que o colonialismo mistura-se à vida pessoal e passa a ser narrado a partir de suas fronteiras. Dessa forma, este artigo pretende investigar a figura da casa em O esplendor de Portugal enquanto espaço de manifestação das relações coloniais estabelecidas nas margens do império português. Para a análise proposta, serão utilizados os estudos teóricos e críticos de diferentes autores, entre os quais destacam-se Homi Bhabha e Boaventura de Sousa Santos.Palavras-chave: Casa. Colonialismo. Portugal.ABSTRACTThe splendor of Portugal, a novel published by the Portuguese writer António Lobo Antunes in 1997, represents the decline of Portuguese colonial action in Africa, focusing on the portrait of a traditional settler family in Angola in the context of post-independence and civil war. The figure of the family house, located on a farm in the Baixa do Cassanje, becomes the fundamental element for the understanding of the relations of power deriving from that society. Colonialism mixes with personal life and begins to be narrated from its borders with the memories of the experiences of four members of the family in the place (Isilda, Carlos, Rui and Clarisse). Thus, this article intends to investigate the figure of the house in The splendor of Portugal as a space of manifestation of the colonial relations established on the margins of the Portuguese empire. The theoretical and critical studies of different authors, notably Homi Bhabha and Boaventura de Sousa Santos, will be used for the proposed analysis.Keywords: House. Colonialism. Portugal.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThe ex-Portuguese town of Diu on the island with the same name off the south coast of Saurashtra, Gujarat, is one of the best-preserved and yet least-studied Portuguese colonial towns. Diu was the last of the Portuguese strongholds in India, the control of which was finally achieved in 1539 after many years of futile struggle and frustrating negotiations with the sultanate of Gujarat. During the late sixteenth and seventeenth century Diu remained a main staging post for Portuguese trade in the Indian Ocean, but with the appearance of the Dutch, and later the French and British, on the scene the island gradually lost its strategic importance. The town was subjected to little renovation during the nineteenth century while in the twentieth century Diu was no more than an isolated Portuguese outpost with meagre trade until it was taken over by India in 1961. As a result, unlike the other former Portuguese colonies in India – Daman and Goa – Diu has preserved most of its original characteristics: a Portuguese colonial town plan, a sixteenth-century fort and a number of old churches, as well as many of the eighteenth and nineteenth-century houses.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractIn this paper I discuss the history of colonial collections through a focus on the social life of a set of blood group cards held by Portuguese institutions since the 1950s. Between the 1940s and 1960s, a series of anthropological field expeditions were organized by the Portuguese Overseas Science Research Board to the then Portuguese colonies in Africa and Asia. A large number of samples of indigenous blood were collected on blood group paper cards in the course of these campaigns. The cards were then stored in Portugal and used for racial serological studies until the 1980s. Thereafter, the collection survived various institutional deaths. Throughout its post-colonial existence in Portuguese institutions, the cards seem to have moved ambivalently between a condition of valued asset and one of obsolete material. And yet they revealed a resilient capacity to mediate conceptions of historical time. Thus the essay asks what it might mean to approach these collections as colonial ‘chronotope’ – devices for connecting space and time – and how and why they endured through various ends, culminating as a genetically contaminated museum object.

Full textAbstract:
This article traces the reception of blood group research in Portuguese physical anthropology in the first half of the twentieth century and analyses its presence as ‘sero-anthropology’ within the context of the disciplinary and political dynamics of colonial and metropolitan Portugal and against the background of international developments on blood group research. It argues that Portugal, hitherto largely understudied in relation to the broader international picture, was in tune with these developments. The article argues further that Portuguese physical anthropology, particularly research based at the University of Porto, was deeply ingrained with the fear of ‘contamination’ of the ‘race’ by the colonialized ‘other’ and sought to differentiate the Portuguese from the peoples of Africa and the East where Portugal possessed colonies, while it also sought to place the Portuguese within the scale of racial hierarchies of ‘whites’ in Europe. The article elaborates on a number of central and marginal figures within Portuguese anthropology to illustrate these claims and argues that the discipline was in tune with wider European developments in the field but with specific colonialist and racialist inflections, some of which are still felt in Portuguese culture today.

Full textAbstract:
This article analyses the issue of miscegenation in Portugal, which is directly associated with the context of its colonial empire, from late nineteenth to mid-twentieth centuries. The analysis considers sources from both literary and scientific fields. Subsequently, aspects such as interracial marriage, degeneration and segregation as well as the changes brought about by the end of World War II and the social revolutions of the 1960s are considered. The 1980s brought several changes in the attitude towards Portuguese identity and nationality, which had meanwhile cut loose from its colonial context. Crossbreeding was never actually praised in the Portuguese colonial context, and despite still having strong repercussions in the present day, lusotropicalism was based on a fallacious rhetoric of politically motivated propaganda.

Mutiua, Chapane. "Ajami Literacy, class, and Portuguese pre-colonial administration in Northern Mozambique." Master's thesis, University of Cape Town, 2014. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/13183.
Full textAbstract:
Includes bibliographical references.This thesis, based on archival and fieldwork research, provides an historical analysis of the northern Mozambique ajami manuscripts held in the Mozambique Historical Archives (AHM). The main focus is on the role played by ajami literacy in the creation of a local Muslim intellectual class that played a significant role in the establishment of a Portuguese pre-colonial administration in northern Mozambique. The history of Islam in northern Mozambique is viewed as a constant struggle against the Portuguese establishment in the region. Through an examination of ajami correspondence held in the AHM and focusing on two of the main northern Mozambique Swahili centres of the nineteenth century (Quissanga and Sancul), this thesis offers a more nuanced interpretation of the relations between the Portuguese and the Swahili Muslim rulers of the region. On the one hand, it views Quissanga-Ibo Island relations based on systematic and relatively loyal collaboration expressed in more than two hundred letters found in the collection of AHM. On the other hand, it presents Sancul-Mozambique Island relations based on ambiguous collaboration and constant betrayals, expressed in forty letters of the collection. The AHM ajami manuscripts collection numbers a total of 665 letters which were first revealed in the context of the pilot study of northern Mozambique Arabic Manuscripts, held in the Mozambique Historical Archives, under the leadership of Professors Liazzat Bonate and Joel Tembe. The pilot study ended with the selection, translation and transliteration of sixty letters from this collection. For the present study I have read, summarized and translated the whole collection (excluding the 60 letters mentioned above). However, only 266 letters which are more relevant for the analysis and argument of my thesis, I have listed in the appendix of this dissertation; and nine of them I have closely examined and cited as the main sources for the construction of local history and as documentary witness of the historical facts I discuss. The use of ajami literacy in northern Mozambique is analysed in the context of global and regional phenomena. In this sense, it is viewed as a result of a longue duré process which integrated the region into the western Indian Ocean’s cultural, political and economic dynamics. It is argued that the spread of ajami literacy in the region was framed in the context of regional Islamic education and an intellectual network. Both were also part of the process of expansion of Islam in East Africa. xiQuissanga (in Cabo Delgado) and Sancul (in Nampula) represent the two main regional settlements from which most of the manuscripts originated. The ruling elites of both regions represent suitable examples of the integration of northern Mozambique into the Swahili political, economic and intellectual networks. They also offer examples of two different dynamics of the process of integration of northern Mozambique rulers into the Portuguese pre-colonial administration. Through an analysis of the spread of Islamic education and the use of Arabic script in the above-mentioned region, this thesis sought to establish the connection of coastal societies in northern Mozambique to the Swahili world (most specifically to Comoros Islands, Zanzibar and western Madagascar). It was through this connection that the Muslim intellectual class was created in northern Mozambique and played an important intermediary role in the process of the establishment of the Portuguese administration in the second half of the nineteenth century. Through their correspondence and reports, this local intellectual elite produced a body of manuscripts in Kiswahili and other local languages (in the Arabic script), which are now an important source for the history of the region.

Full textAbstract:
A formação deste trabalho tem como horizonte a comparação entre as obras Mayombe e Predadores do autor angolano Pepetela, principalmente no tocante a perspectiva nacional que está impressa em cada texto, todavia de maneiras diversas. A possibilidade de ler as obras de maneira muito próxima aos fenômenos históricos angolanos é aquilo que faz com que se projete sob os olhos a questão nacional que é tão cara à série literária angolana, principalmente caso se tenha em mente a formação do jovem país e a necessidade de construir a identidade. As obras em questão registram, em momentos diversos, esta construção e as nuances ideológicas no processo nacional, cada qual em uma época e quando olhadas uma em relação a outra, consegue-se depreender mais, primordialmente aquilo que está no âmbito ideológico da desconstrução e da perda de paradigmas, sejam eles políticos ou culturais. É o efeito da pós-modernidade que obriga a sociedade em questão a descobrir-se sem chão e sem certeza de nada, uma vez que não mais se pode falar de estado colonial, mas sim pós-colonial e, como tal, terra aberta a possibilidades, sejam elas propositivas ou niilistas com relação à formação nacional. Dessa maneira, para depreender mais que obviedades da relação dessas obras, deve-se ter em mente que as formações híbridas desse espaço obrigam o desapego teórico, caminhando na direção da colaboração entre as disciplinas de modo a captar significativamente algo deste contato. Assim, interrogar-se sobre as obras Mayombe e Predadores tanto no que toca nos pontos de contato quanto nos de repulsão é mais que exercício teórico, é questionar-se quanto à legitimidade do processo nacional que está subentendido nas duas obras. Pepetela, como uma espécie de demiurgo, registra aquilo que está fora do lugar, destoando a análise, e que aos poucos, apresenta como um acre sabor na boca de quem lê, aquilo em que se transformou o sonho de libertação angolana, justamente o antípoda do processo que se apossa e faz com que o capitalismo mais selvagem possível arrebate o sonho comunista de princípio, e que não mais é possível crer num Estado aos moldes do Ocidente do século XIX, mas simplesmente os frangalhos do mesmo. Entretanto, não se pode ler o contexto acima verificado de modo apenas negativo, uma vez que dele pode se verificar obras literárias complexas que não só dão conta da fotografia histórica, mas também de todo um trabalho de linguagem e de sentido que, para ser de fato apreciado, demanda o trabalho técnico hermenêutico de avanço e retrocesso, do micro ao macro, para que se produza algum conhecimento satisfatório a respeito das obras.The formation of the horizon of this work is the comparison between the literary works of the author of Predadores and Mayombe, the Angolan writer Pepetela, specially at the perspective of Nation that is founded on each text, but in differently ways. The ability to read the works in very closely way to the Angolan historical phenomena is what makes this project closed to the national question, which is so relevant to the Angolan literary series, especially if you have in mind the formation of this young country and the need to build its own identity. The narratives in question express in different times this ideological construction and the variations in the national process, each one at the time, and when they are viewed one relation to another, it can be inferred more, primarily in what this ideological deconstruction and loss of paradigms whether political or cultural. It is the effect of post-modernity which requires the concerned company to find themselves without the ground and not sure of anything, since one can no longer speak of the colonial state, but post-colonial land and as such are open to possibilities they purposeful or nihilistic related to the nationally formation. Therefore, to remove more than superficialities of the relationship of these narratives we should keep in mind that the hybrid formations of this area require the detachment theory, moving toward the collaboration between disciplines in order to capture something significantly of the Contact. So ask yourself about the books Mayombe and Predators both in terms as the contact points as the points of repulsion is more than a theoretical exercise, question itself about the legitimacy of the national process that implied in the two works, makes Pepetela a kind of demiurge, whose records what is out of right place, diverging the analysis, and gradually presents as an acrid taste in the mouth of the reader, what it became the dream of Angola freedom, in the antithesis of the process which takes places and makes the most savage capitalism that destroyed the communist dream of beginning, and that is no longer possible to believe in a state along the lines of the West of the nineteenth century, but simply whats left of it. However, you cannot read the background above only for the negative way, because it can verify the complex literary works that not only realize in the historic photograph but also the work of language and meaning that to be truly appreciated by the reader it demands technical and hermeneutical work, from microspical to the macroscopical, to its bring a satisfactory knowledge about the works.

Full textAbstract:
In 1920s-30s São Paulo, Brazil, leaders of the vanguard artistic movement known as “modernism” began to argue that national identity came not from shared values or even cultural practices but rather by a shared way of thinking, which they variously designated as Brazil’s “racial psychology,” “folkloric unconscious,” and “national psychology.” Building on turn-of-the-century psychological and anthropological theories, the group diagnosed Brazil’s national mind as characterized by “primitivity” and in need of a program of psychological development. The group rose to political power in the 1930s, placing the artists in a position to undertake such a project. The Symphony of State charts this previously unexamined intellectual project and explains why elite leaders believed music to be the most-promising strategy for developing the national mind beyond primitivity. In 1935, they founded the São Paulo Department of Culture and Recreation in order to fund music education, train ethnomusicologists, commission symphonies, and host performances across the city. Until now, historians of twentieth-century Brazil have praised music as a critical site for marginalized groups to sound out political protest. But The Symphony of State shows the reverse has also been true: elite groups used music as a top-down civilizing project designed to naturalize racial hierarchies and justify class difference.
The intellectual history portion of the dissertation turns on archival sources, newspaper accounts, personal correspondence, modernist literature, and the period’s scholarly journals. The examination of literary form, discourse analysis, and marginalia lends depth to a carefully-documented study of ideas. Then, The Symphony of State brings to bear an innovative reading of ethnographic field books, vinyl records, and music scores to show that the department’s scholarship and symphonic compositions alike furthered the narrative of a nation jeopardized by primitivity. What is more, the department’s composers employed musical properties such as harmony and dissonance as metaphors to convince listeners that a harmonious society required the maintenance of racial and class hierarchies. In bringing further clarity to the department’s intellectual project, the sections featuring music analysis speak to the value of reading music as an historical text.
The dissertation accomplishes multiple goals. It uncovers the theory of national psychology driving the musical institution; examines ethnographic material to further understand racial and regional prejudice in the period; and analyzes concert music commissioned and performed by the municipal department. The examination of the musical institution reveals a moment in Brazilian history in which national identity was constructed atop the notion of a shared psychology and in which modernity was believed to come with the musical tuning of the body politic and the training of its mind.

As experiências das mulheres brasileiras imigrantes têm merecido atenção da mídia portuguesa desde a chamada "segunda vaga" migratória, cujo marco temporal data de 1999. A feminilização dos fluxos migratórios confere centralidade às questões de gênero, as quais só podem ser entendidas em sua complexidade quando interseccionadas com outros marcadores sociais como nacionalidade, raça/etnia e classe. A fim de compreender como a mídia lusitana veio reportado este fenômeno, foram analisados nesta tese dois importantes periódicos locais, o lisboeta Público e Jornal de Notícias, do Porto. A partir da locução “mulher brasileira” e das palavras de busca “brasileira/s” chegou a um universo de 162 notícias, as quais foram organizadas em categorias classificatórias e analisadas em diálogo com os estudos feministas e pós-coloniais. Reiterações, cristalizações e tensionamentos relativos à experiência destas brasileiras imigrantes são problematizadas nesta pesquisa a partir de referencial foucaultiano. Considerando que os discursos são mais que atos de fala descritivos e sustentados por signos, procurou-se, justamente, sublinhar este “mais” no esforço de fazê-lo aparecer, procurou-se descrever seus sentidos. Os resultados mostram que os periódicos analisados tendem a reproduzir visões colonialista e sexistas relativas às experiências destas mulheres, ainda que, em um deles, voltado para o público lisboeta, de classe média, tenda a problematizar o preconceitos e estereótipos aos quais estas imigrantes estão sujeitas, a homogeneização das experiências, ali reportadas tende a reiterar percepções sexualizadas, erotizadas e/ou vitimarias das brasileiras. Invisibilizando-se vivências que não são facilmente alocadas nessas chaves de classificação.
The experiences of immigrants Brazilian women have come to the attention of the Portuguese media since the so-called "segunda vaga" immigration, which in timeframe date 1999. The feminization of migration flows gives centrality to gender issues, which can only be understood in its complexity when intersect with other social markers such as nationality, race / ethnicity and class. In order to understand how the media came Lusitanian reported this phenomenon, were analyzed in this thesis two major local newspapers, the Lisbon's Público and Jornal de Notícias, ot the Porto. From the expression "Brazilian woman" and the search words "Brazilian/s" reached a universe of 162 news, which were organized in classificatory categories and analyzed in dialogue with feminist studies and postcolonial. Reiterations, crystallization and tensions on the experience of these immigrants are Brazilian problematized this research from foucaultiano reference. Whereas the discourse are more than acts descriptive speech and sustained by signs, sought to precisely underline this "mais" in the effort to make it appear, he tried to describe his senses. The results show that the periodicals analyzed tend to reproduce colonialist and sexist views on the experiences of these women, although in one of them, facing the Lisbon audience, middle class, tend to question the prejudices and stereotypes to which these immigrants are subject the homogenization of experience, there tends to reiterate reported sexualized perceptions, eroticized and/or victimizers of Brazil.

Boileau, Janet Patricia. "A culinary history of the Portuguese Eurasians: the origins of Luso-Asian cuisine in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries." Thesis, 2010. http://hdl.handle.net/2440/77948.
Full textAbstract:
The Portuguese Eurasians are a cultural group who trace their ancestry to the fifteenth and sixteenth century Portuguese voyages of exploration that inaugurated the era of European colonization in Asia. The Portuguese established a maritime route to the Far East and built an empire based on spice trade with Europe and inter-Asia trade in a variety of commodities. Portuguese merchants and adventurers travelled throughout the region, married indigenous women and gave rise to Luso-Asian communities in most of the region’s trading centres, while
peripatetic Portuguese missionaries established Christian communities and introduced Iberian social values to many areas in the Far East. The Luso-Asian creole societies that developed as a result of these encounters were ethnically diverse but ideologically unified by a tenacious allegiance to Catholicism and a common Portuguese cultural heritage. This study explores the culinary heritage of the Portuguese Eurasians and the historical development of their distinctive, hybridized cuisine, which blends the culinary traditions of Southern Europe with those of indigenous Asia. It establishes the origins of Luso-Asian cuisine in the gastronomy of Early Modern Portugal and examines how Portuguese colonial policy and social formation influenced the development of a creolized cuisine. Key ingredients and foodways that signify Iberian cultural influence are identified and documentary evidence for their transition to Asia is examined. The evolution of Luso-Asian cuisine is traced, from the challenges of food security in the early Portuguese settlements to the emergence of elite colonial societies with an elaborate dining culture. The study argues that the adaptability of the Portuguese and their openness to inter-cultural exchange distinguished them from other European colonists and encouraged the adoption of indigenous culinary elements. At the same time, the desire to retain a Portuguese identity and commitment to the Catholic faith promoted the survival of Iberian cultural traits.
This study is the first academic enquiry into the gastronomy of the Portuguese empire and makes an original contribution to the fields of Portuguese history, food history, and colonial studies. More significantly, it begins the work of documenting the foodways of a marginal community whose cultural heritage is rapidly dissipating.Thesis (Ph.D.) -- University of Adelaide, School of History and Politics, 2010

Levando em consideração um processo histórico (a colonização) e um sistema (o colonialismo), este trabalho explora a problemática da literatura colonial portuguesa em Angola na década de 1920. Quanto à estrutura, o estudo apresenta quatro capítulos: em primeiro lugar, tecemos um enquadramento teórico do colonialismo, da literatura colonial (em geral), da literatura colonial portuguesa (em particular) e da formação da literatura nacional angolana; essas considerações iniciais intentam sistematizar algumas formulações indispensáveis para se entender o fenômeno colonial, bem como apresentar um apanhado geral da história literária angolana, a fim de reconhecer a relevância das obras de autores portugueses para a construção desta outra literatura nacional. Em seguida, considerando que sem conhecer o contexto histórico é impossível compreender a literatura colonial da década de 1920 em sua plenitude, trazemos uma descrição da situação política entre Portugal e Angola e discutimos o surgimento da Agência Geral das Colónias, além de explorar a criação dos concursos de literatura colonial e introduzir as três obras selecionadas para a análise subsequente: África Portentosa, de Gastão Sousa Dias; África Misteriosa, de Julião Quintinha; e Em terra de pretos, de Henrique Galvão. Para os capítulos três e quatro, porém, foram escolhidos dois eixos temáticos mais específicos – a questão da representação do africano e a questão de gênero, respectivamente – que nos permitem verificar como as obras eleitas para pesquisa constituem um conjunto de referências que ajudam compreender algumas das singularidades do colonialismo português em Angola.

vidales, santiago. "Correspondencias Tempestuosas: Tres Ensayos para Acompañar a Sycorax y Calibán." 2014. https://scholarworks.umass.edu/masters_theses_2/51.
Full textAbstract:
William Shakespeare’s (1564-1616) theatrical work The Tempest was first performed in 1611 at the court of James I. Since the XVII century until today this work of art has travelled the world and has been (re)interpreted from the perspective of multiple ideologies. This thesis seeks to understand the representations and uses that Caliban has had in different spaces and historical moments. The anti-colonial interpretations of Roberto Fernández Retamar authorize us to read metaphorically the current socio-political situation of Latin immigrants in the United States through the perspective of The Tempest. The first chapter of this thesis studies and critically analyzes the way in which the character Caliban is negatively constructed. This chapter concludes that many of the critics that are cited base their interpretations of Caliban not necessarily on textual evidence but rather on their own colonial and oppressive ideologies. To illustrate this tension I present a detailed analysis of the supposed rape of Miranda by Caliban, I analyze Caliban’s poetic voice and give historical context of the theatrical work’s production and its critical reception by the European literary tradition. The second chapter seeks to present an ideological and analytic counterpoint to this European tradition. This chapter presents the anti-colonial project of Roberto Fernández Retamar who throughout his many essays on Caliban turned this character into a symbol of Latin-American and revolutionary identity. In this section I study the evolution of Fernández Retamar’s thinking through his many essays on Caliban. To understand the importance of his literary reinterpretation I analyze the Cuban historical context of the 60’s and 70’s while paying particular attention to the controversies surrounding the “Padilla affair”. The third chapter applies a metaphorical historic reading of contemporary Latin communities in the United States using the characters of The Tempest. This chapter seeks to centralize the importance of the feminine voice in this theatrical work by combating the supposed silence of Sycorax, Caliban’s mother. In this section I do a detailed textual study to demonstrate that Sycorax, even though she has no lines of her own, is an important character in the play and can be seen as a correction to a long masculinist trajectory that has silenced the importance of women in colonial literature. This last chapter seeks to synthesize the analyzing and theorizing of literature, the studying of social movements in Massachusetts and the political and social status of Latin people using Sycorax + Caliban as an identity metaphor.

Full textAbstract:
My thesis is an analysis of my own translation of a chapter from Dominik Nagl's legal history 'Grenzfälle,' which addresses questions of citizenship and nationality in the context of the German colonies in Africa and the South Pacific. My analysis focuses primarily on strategies that I used in an effort to preserve the strangeness of a linguistic context that is, in many ways, "foreign" to twenty first-century North Americans while also striving to avoid reproducing the violence embedded in language that is historically laden with extreme power disparities.

Full textAbstract:
This publication is the result of a baseline study of the state of the higher education systems in the five Portuguese speaking countries in Africa (PALOP): Angola, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique and Sao Tome and Principe. The project was undertaken by an African international expert in the field of higher education studies and was fully sponsored and supported by the Association for the Development of Education in Africa (ADEA). The report offers a historical overview of the development of higher education in PALOP from colonial times to the present. The main objective of this baseline study is to map the landscape and dynamics of change in the higher education systems of PALOP countries. It focuses on describing the latest developments of trends of expansion, financing, governance and policy reforms closely linked to the development of higher education systems in these countries. Furthermore, the study will facilitate an informed debate and the dissemination of knowledge on the role of higher education for development in Africa.

Full textAbstract:
Os textos produzidos na denominada América Portuguesa (1500-1822) abrangem os mais variados campos das letras ocidentais – lírica, épica, dramaturgia, historiografia, epistolografia, parenética, lexicografia, etc. – e seguem um modelo retórico-poético e teológico-político comum, próprio das Letras do Ancien Régime. Manuscritos e impressos escritos em várias línguas (português, principalmente, mas também em latim, castelhano, francês, italiano, tupi-guarani, língua geral, etc.), por um número de autores considerável (Pero Vaz de Caminha, José de Anchieta, Antônio Vieira, Francisco Manuel de Melo, Gregório de Matos, Manoel Botelho de Oliveira, Sebastião da Rocha Pita, Basílio da Gama, Antônio da Costa Peixoto, Francisco Alves de Sousa, etc.), corriam com avidez entre os leitores. São justamente esses textos, esses autores e esses leitores os que conformam o sistema cultural das Letras na América Portuguesa. A historiografia brasileira, portuguesa e inclusive internacional tem se debruçado há já vários decênios no estudo dos Estados do Brasil e do Maranhão e Grão-Pará, tanto de um ponto de vista micro-histórico como macro-histórico, salientando-se nos últimos tempos a sua relação com o resto do mundo, no âmbito próprio da global history. Nos últimos decênios, ao mesmo tempo, a literatura vem perdendo, paulatinamente, o seu poder de conhecimento legitimador das elites culturais de uma nação. Esse esquecido «Parnaso Brasileiro» mantinha, no entanto, um fluido diálogo cultural com Lisboa assim como com outras cidades europeias, diálogo esse que os processos de formação das literaturas exclusivamente nacionais, brasileira e/ou portuguesa, vieram apagar ou até mesmo ignorar. No espaço hermenêutico próprio dos Atlantic Studies, recuperam-se, neste livro, as Letras escritas e lidas na América Portuguesa, estudam-se seus autores, interpretam-se textos escolhidos e indaga-se tanto sobre seus primeiros leitores, como sobre seus leitores de ontem e de hoje. Um conjunto de docentes do Brasil, de Portugal, da Alemanha e da Espanha discute textos de Vaz de Caminha, Ambrósio Fernandes Brandão, Antônio Vieira, Botelho de Oliveira, Basílio da Gama, Antônio da Costa Peixoto e Santa Rita Durão, entre outros. Die in der sogenannten »América Portuguesa« (1500-1822) entstandenen Texte gehören zu verschiedensten Diskursformen der westlichen Literatur und Kultur: Lyrik, Epik, Dramaturgie, Historiographie, Epistolographie, Homiletik, Lexikographie usw. Sie folgen einem gemeinsamen rhetorisch-poetischen und theologisch-politischen Modell, das charakteristisch für die Texte des Ancien Régime war. Manuskripte und Drucke in verschiedenen Sprachen (hauptsächlich Portugiesisch, aber auch Latein, Spanisch, Französisch, Italienisch, Tupi-Guarani, Língua Geral etc.) von einer beachtlichen Anzahl von Autoren (Pero Vaz de Caminha, José de Anchieta, Antônio Vieira, Francisco Manuel de Melo, Gregório de Matos, Manoel Botelho de Oliveira, Sebastião da Rocha Pita, Basílio da Gama, Antônio da Costa Peixoto, Francisco Alves de Sousa usw.) fanden eine umfassende Leserschaft. All diese Elemente - Texte, Autoren und Leserschaft – bilden das System der »Letras« in der »América Portuguesa«. Die brasilianische, portugiesische und sogar die internationale Geschichtsschreibung konzentriert sich seit mehreren Jahrzehnten auf das Studium der Kolonialstaaten Brasil und Maranhão e Grão-Pará sowohl aus mikro- als auch aus makrohistorischer Sicht. Gleichzeitig verliert die Literatur in den letzten Jahrzehnten allmählich die Funktion, das Wissen der kulturellen Eliten einer Nation zu legitimieren. Der aktuell wenig beachtete »Parnaso Brasileiro« unterhielt einen intensiven kulturellen Dialog mit Lissabon wie auch mit anderen europäischen Städten, einen Dialog, der der Ausbildung ausschließlich nationaler Literaturen, brasilianischer und/oder portugiesischer, wenig Stellenwert einräumte oder sie sogar ignorierte. Im hermeneutischen Raum, den die Atlantic Studies eröffnen, erschließt dieses Buch die in der »América Portuguesa« geschriebenen und gelesenen Texte, beschäftigt sich mit ihren Autoren, interpretiert ausgewählte Texte und fragt nach ihren ersten Lesern sowie nach ihren Leserinnen und Lesern gestern und heute. Eine Gruppe von Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern aus Brasilien, Portugal, Deutschland und Spanien diskutiert Texte u.a. von Vaz de Caminha, Ambrósio Fernandes Brandão, Antônio Vieira, Botelho de Oliveira, Basílio da Gama, Antônio da Costa Peixoto und Santa Rita Durão. The texts produced in the so-called “América Portuguesa” (1500-1822) cover the most varied fields of Western Literature and Culture – lyric, epic, dramaturgy, historiography, epistolography, homiletics, lexicography, etc. – and follow a common rhetorical-poetic and theological-political model, typical for the Ancien Régime. Manuscripts and prints were written in various languages (Portuguese, mainly, but also Latin, Spanish, French, Italian, Tupi-Guarani, Língua Geral, etc.), by a considerable number of authors (Pero Vaz de Caminha, José de Anchieta, Antônio Vieira, Francisco Manuel de Melo, Gregório de Matos, Manoel Botelho de Oliveira, Sebastião da Rocha Pita, Basílio da Gama, Antônio da Costa Peixoto, Francisco Alves de Sousa, etc.) found a broad reception by readers. Precisely, these texts, these authors and these readers constituted the literary system in the “América Portuguesa”. Brazilian, Portuguese, and even international historiography has focused for several decades on the study of the colonial states Brasil and Maranhão e Grão-Pará, both from a micro-historical and macro-historical point of view, emphasizing recently their relationship with the rest of the world in the context of global history. Currently, literature is gradually losing its power of legitimising knowledge of the cultural elites of a nation. This forgotten “Parnaso Brasileiro” maintained, however, a fluid cultural dialogue with Lisbon as well as with other European cities, a dialogue that the formation of exclusively national literatures, Brazilian and/or Portuguese, came to neglect or even ignore. In the hermeneutic space opened up by the Atlantic Studies, this book deals with texts written and read in the “América Portuguesa”, studies its authors, interprets selected works and inquires both about its first readers and about its readers yesterday and today. A group of scholars from Brazil, Portugal, Germany and Spain discusses texts by Vaz de Caminha, Ambrósio Fernandes Brandão, Antônio Vieira, Botelho de Oliveira, Basílio da Gama, Antônio da Costa Peixoto and Santa Rita Durão, among others.

Full textAbstract:
The Guinean-born Amílcar Cabral has been hailed as one of the most original voices in revolutionary processes on the African continent. He was not only behind one of the most resourceful independence movement in Africa, the PAIGC (African Party for the Liberation of Guinea and Cape Verde). But the challenge he posed against the colonial military might was also instrumental to end of Portuguese colonialism altogether. For reaction against Estado Novo brewed mostly in Bissau, on the account of a war the Portuguese was waging against the guerrilla and could not win. This biography describes Cabral’s upbringing in Cape Verde, his political coming of age in Lisbon, as a student in agronomy and anticolonial activist, as well as his transformation into one of the most revered revolutionaries in the world. However, contrary to most studies on Cabral, which tend to rely on the materials produced during the liberation war, this book approaches the life of Cabral from a slightly different perspective. It explores a trove of Lusophone sources, particularly those ones that use contemporary issues to illuminate historical conundrums. The political trajectory Cape Verde and Guinea-Bissau have followed sheds light not only on Cabral’s quest for identity – being born in Guinea-Bissau from Cape Verdeans parents – But also on the day-to-day conduction of the anti-colonial war itself.

Full textAbstract:
The 1953 poetry notebook Poesia negra de expressão portuguesa [Black Poetry of Portuguese Expression] was first work that brought together negritude poetry from across the Lusophone African world. Edited by Angolan intellectual Mário Pinto de Andrade and Sao Tomean poet Francisco Tenreiro, the short collection declares itself an anti-colonial intervention into the negritude movements underway in the Francophone world since the 1930s. Little has been made, however, of the notebook’s dedication to Cuban poet Nicolás Guillén or the inclusion of Guillén’s poem “Son Número 6” [Son Number 6] in the collection. This article argues that the juxtaposition of Guillén’s “Son No. 6” with the Lusophone poems consolidates an alternative transatlanticism that emphasizes Guillén as a black poet, rather than themes of racial and cultural mixing, and thus shifts the circuits of collaboration away from francophone negritude's colony-metropole axis to the South. Poetic techniques such as call-and-response and the socially-embedded, metonymic construction of blackness shared among Guillén and Lusophone poets Agostinho Neto, Noémia de Sousa, and António Jacinto show how the notebook establishes the origins of both negritude poetry and negritude identity in the trans-Atlantic poetic conversation itself.

Full textAbstract:
Frederick Noronha synthesizes an account of the rich social and political history of football in Goa, with the crosscurrents of the influence of the church, and the former Portuguese rulers, referencing the economic and political forces that shaped the game in later years. Goa’s links with football cannot be separated from the region’s long, 450-year legacy of Portuguese colonial rule. In recent years however, political parties, knowing the importance of football in Goa have used the game to curry favour among certain sections of the population. Wealthy and influential names dominate the football associations. On the other hand, with rapid real estate growth, playing fields are disappearing shrinking the pool of talent. The author in this short chapter provides a glimpse of how various factors and agencies outside the sport impact on its development.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter explores Portuguese colonial relations with Timorese marriage institutions during the late colonial period. By drawing on the rich colonial history of the barlake (traditional marriage contracts) in East Timor, it proposes a novel approach to the trope of intermarriage in the Portuguese-speaking world. In addressing the variety of relationships with marriage in colonial practice, the chapter conceptualises three main types of colonial interactions with indigenous marriage: predatory, parasitic and mimetic. It uses case studies to show how these distinct forms of interaction could be associated with distinct colonial agents and their particular agendas. The chapter shows how, in late nineteenth-century East Timor, colonial relationships with barlake were marked by a tense coexistence between, on the one hand, the predatory model followed by the Catholic missionaries, and, on the other hand, the parasitic exploitation of indigenous marriage ties, customarily practised by colonial officers and governors.

Full textAbstract:
The authors of this paper explore the geography of power in South America as expressed by Spain and Portugal in their different patterns of development in colonial America. The paper outlines the political position of each country during the Age of Discovery, the political attitudes of each and the resultant urban morphologies and spatial organizations developed by each colonial power. A close examination of two South American colonial cities one Spanish, one Portuguese-reveals that the Spanish urban pattern promoted a hierarchy of interconnected cities of gridded layout, with key state and religious functions strategically located in relationship to the plaza. Portugal, in contrast, created a series of isolated commercial-military towns, of informal morphology with key state and religious functions distributed according to topography. Two case studies of Spanish and Portuguese colonial cities clearly illustrate the divergent policies and patterns of spatial control of these two important colonizing powers of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.

Full textAbstract:
A Ilha de Santa Catarina apresenta configurações urbanas típicas da colonização portuguesa. Durante o século XVIII houve um incentivo à ocupação das terras para povoação e defesa do território. Imigrantes portugueses, em sua maioria açorianos, foram instalados em diversos locais da Ilha além da Vila de Nossa Senhora do Desterro, hoje Centro da cidade. A fundação dos núcleos iniciais do Ribeirão da Ilha, Santo Antônio de Lisboa e Lagoa da Conceição influenciou a paisagem destes locais e ainda hoje são percebidas as marcas desta ocupação. Através de análises da morfologia urbana são identificados os traçados coloniais e a configuração urbanística implantada. O processo formador do espaço colonial e um panorama da atualidade são apresentados através de mapas e imagens com a finalidade de valorização da paisagem e do patrimônio formado pelos conjuntos localizados nos sítios estudados. Santa Catarina’s Island offers urban settings of typical Portuguese colonization. During sec XVIII, azorean people came to increase population and defeated territory. These people was located over different places within the Island besides the Village of Nossa Senhora do Desterro, known today as downtown of Florianópolis. The foundation of initial cores of Ribeirão da Ilha, Santo Antônio de Lisboa and Lagoa da Conceição has influenced the landscape of these locations and today they still represent the marks of this kind of occupation. Through urban morphology analysis, colonial traces and the urban configurations are identified. Colonial space configuration and current panorama are presented through maps and images for the purpose of enhancement of the landscape and heritage formed by the sets located in the studied sites.
