Postcolonial Theory and Crisis
In the millennial transition the prefix ‘post’ had come to signify more and more not just the realisation of a ‘coming after’ but also of the impossibility of not seeing the present as still very much working through the wounds of the past. Yet with the appearance of pseudo-concepts such as ‘post-truth’ after an equally imaginary ‘death of History’, the logic of the ‘post’, itself always already under questioning, may appear to have outlived its …
Framing absence: Postimperial memory in Margarida Cardoso’s Yvone Kane
What if absence and loss are structuring elements of the post-imperial condition? Not defining elements, as the post-imperial by its very nature remains a slippery and shape-shifting concept; but certainly core, enabling elements that might go a long way towards explaining the strange hold that a post-imperial imaginary has in the present. Keeping in mind that there are as many versions of the post-imperial as there were empires, and more, becaus…
Memory, trauma, politics: A lusophone triangulation
Ilhas, ilhas, ilhas
Raul Brandão’s As ilhas desconhecidas has always been regarded as a great example of travel literature. This essay attempts a dialectical analysis of the text that highlights its social critique, which remains as urgent in the present. Brandão’s perspective, in all its subjectivity, lack of familiarity, anxiety, and even some feeling of repulsion, never becomes that of a consumer or collector of exotic, strange or alienating, images. While today’…
Memory’s ransom: Silences, postmemory, cinema
Close to half a century after their end, the colonial wars Portugal waged in a desperate and doomed attempt to hold on to its African colonies in 1974 remain still largely unprocessed. This article examines the multiple silences surrounding the colonial wars and the 25th April Revolution in Portugal drawing from the concept of postmemory and the notion of a traumatic past whose wounds have never healed. It argues that silence in the end does noth…
Post-Imperial Europe: First Definitions
Sociometric Status of Participants Involved in School Bullying
The situation of social vulnerability hinders the integration processes and thus can foster problems in interpersonal interactions in school. This study aimed to analyze the sociometric status and its relationships with sex, age and profiles of bullying participation in children and adolescents in situations of social vulnerability. A total of 409 students between the third and seventh grades of two public elementary schools in Florianópolis-SC p…
Contemporary Lusophone African Film: Transnational Communities and Alternative Modernities
Associação entre bullying escolar e o país de origem: Um Estudo Transcultural
O objetivo do estudo foi analisar o bullying em Portugal e no Brasil verificando possíveis associações com o país de origem. Participaram 789 crianças e adolescentes. Apesar de haver diversos questionários acerca da temática, utilizou-se o Questionário de Olweus em virtude de sua relevância e vasta utilização em todo o mundo, o que facilita a comparação dos resultados. Verificou-se que os brasileiros apresentaram associações envolvendo menor esco…
Lusophony or the Haunted Logic of Postempire
Lusophony is a neo-colonial concept that only emerges once the Empire is irrevocably dissolved. Whereas Lusophony cannot escape its neo-colonial entanglements, Lusotopy, on the contrary, strives precisely not only to go beyond, but against them. This article reflects on the ways in which literature, film, or ‘tuga’ hip-hop music, strive to advance transnational forms of resistance to unending and ever renewed kinds of oppression. Focusing on Luso…
The Last Crossing: Fernando Vendrell's O gotejar da luz and Postimperial Representation
Vulnerabilidade E Bullying Escolar: Interfaces Teóricas Possíveis
O bullying escolar é um problema que afeta a saúde e o desenvolvimento de crianças e adolescentes. As aulas de educação física podem ser um momento em que esse tipo de situação se intensifica. Assim, o objetivo deste ensaio foi apresentar os significados conceituais de bullying e vulnerabilidade, bem como conhecer as conexões teóricas possíveis entre os conceitos e suas relações com as práticas corporais proporcionadas nas aulas de Educação Físic…
Os Usos Das Fronteiras
Post-imperial Nostalgia and Miguel Gomes’ Tabu
With Europe in a prolonged and threatening political crisis, post-imperial nostalgia, the dreaming of a glorious past that never was, is a current threat. Fuelled by instability, a loss of hope for a better future, and the collapse of emancipatory ideologies in the face of a seemingly unstoppable global capitalism that has entered a savage phase, imperial nostalgia is more than a simple palliative for the present malaise. In the case of Portugal,…
Bullying escolar: Um Fenômeno Multifacetado

O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever como ocorre o bullying em escolas de alta vulnerabilidade social da Grande Florianópolis e os papéis assumidos pelos alunos nesse fenômeno. Quanto ao método, participaram 409 crianças e adolescentes do terceiro ao quinto ano e da q…
Whose Camões? Canons, Celebrations, Colonialisms
Notes Towards a (More) Cosmopolitan History of European Literature
Was den Kern der europäischen Identität ausmacht, ist freilich mehr der Charakter schmerzlicher Lernprozesse als dessen Ergebnis. Die Erinnerung an den moralischen Abgrund, in den uns der nationalistische Exzess geführt hat, verleiht unserem heutigen Engagement den Stellenwert einer Errungenschaft. (Jürgen Habermas 1 )
In Praise of Shadows
Postcolonial memories and lusophone literatures
By focusing almost exclusively on the circumstances of British colonialism, postcolonial theory has failed to take into consideration other histories of colonization and other forms of postcoloniality. By considering a few elements from the history of Portuguese colonialism and a few lusophone texts, it is my hope to demonstrate what I consider to be a limited perspective on postcolonial studies, at the same time that one may also ponder the fact…

discourse that effaces a "Portuguese glorious past," textually replacing it with a Mozambican past and present (225).Overall, The Golden Cage is important for its textual readings, and the excerpts from interviews with authors that it includes.However, it would have benefited from a more rigorous editing process, prior to publication
What's Left? Portuguese Cultural Studies
To start an introduction to a thematic issue on Portuguese Cultural Studies that purportedly aims at bringing attention to such studies and to foster themwith the question of "what's left?" may seem odd at least, if not completely misguided. But of course, the question is intended not as aprovocation but as a serious appeal to take stock, right from the beginning, both of the way in which any supposedly new method, disciplinary aggregate, or even…
