Abstract

THIS PAPER DEVELOPS, THROUGH COMPARATIVE LITERATURE, A STUDY OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TERRA SONÂMBULA (1992) BY MIA COUTO AND IRACEMA (1865)BY JOSÉ DE ALENCAR. WE ANALYZE THE FEMALE CHARACTERS, FARIDA AND IRACEMA. ALTHOUGH, INITIALLY WHAT BECOMES MORE CLEAR AS A COMPARATIVE POINT IS THE PRESENCE OF TWO WOMEN, WHAT WE SEARCH FOR IN THESE WORKS IS HOW THE TWO CHARACTERS PERSONIFIES THE LAND POSSESSED BY THE COLONIZER, AND AS WOMEN/LAND MARKED THEM BY THE SIGN OF THE PRESENCE OF THE POWER AND THE COLONIZATION.
