TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the memory of the second generation of the Portuguese Colonial War through both testimonies of children of the Colonial Wars and their literary and artistic representations of the colonial wars.
Abstract: As has been repeatedly argued, war, as a social and political phenomenon, strikes at least three generations: the generation that is call, the parent´s generation and the generation of the children of the war. From the data obtained from the project “Children of the Colonial Wars: post-memory and representations”, funded by the Foundation for Science and Technology and carried out at the Centre for Social Studies, University of Coimbra, between 2007-2011, this paper analyses the memory of the second generation of the Portuguese Colonial War, through both testimonies of children of the Colonial Wars and their literary and artistic representations of the Colonial Wars.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyse two poems extracted from the book As Regras da Perspectiva (1990) and discuss some literary questions as the metalanguage, the sensations, the lyric subjectivity, the narrative trends, the special meanings and the forms of the world.
Abstract: Nuno Judice’s poetry has a peculiar discourse, whose devices of construction mix poetry and prose in order to eliminate the borders between the two kinds of language. The Classical tradition is a constant reference in his poetry, by means of the imagery and the allegory in which some Greek myths are mentioned. Nevertheless, the context of modernity from which the poet Nuno Judice emerges put together the dimensions of space and time so as it is impossible to separate them. In this paper we analyse two poems extracted from the book As Regras da Perspectiva (1990) and our purpose is to discuss some literary questions as the metalanguage, the sensations, the lyric subjectivity, the narrative trends, the special meanings and the forms of the world.
TL;DR: This study explores Vera Duarte's poetry book "Urdindo palavras no silêncio dos dias", analyzing its four "stations" that reflect on themes such as ethnic-racial issues, love, language, and self-formation during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Abstract: Vera Duarte, one of the great names in contemporary Cape Verde literature, published a work in 2024 that we believe to be one of the most significant poetry books in Portuguese Language at present times: Urdindo palavras no silêncio dos dias: poemas de um tempo de pandemia, as the subtitle indicates, offers the reader a wide range of reflections on diverse themes, conceived during an extremely difficult and atypical period that stirred the human side in us, which, perhaps, will change the fate of the Earth forever: the COVID-19. The book is divided into four “stations”, each one named as a theme, along which subjective poems are grouped: the first thinks, poli-tically, about the ethnic-racial issues that perpetuate themselves over time; the second is a “poetic essay” on love and its nuances; the third considers the word, its possibilities and subjectivities; the fourth welcomes experiences and memories that (con)form the self as oneself and as another. This study aims to explore, in general terms, interfaces, senses and feelings evoked by, for and about the poetic word through which Vera Duarte encourages us to revisit the pandemic times that, today, sound to memory almost like a dystopian fiction. Our reading will start from the fourfold division of the work, with special attention to its denominations and the relationship be-tween meaning and some external references to it by Simone Caputo Gomes, Carla Akotirene and Paul Ricoeur.
