CALL FOR PUBLICATION — VIA ATLÂNTICA, v. 27, n. 2
Via Atlântica invites researchers to participate in the Thematic Dossier no. 49, African Literatures in Portuguese Language in the 19th and early 20th centuries: Formative Aspects.
Deadline for submission of papers: October 1, 2024, to March 31, 2025.
Expected publication date: December 2026.
The special dossier “Women’s Literature: Memories, Peripheries and Resistances in the Lush-Afro-Brazilian Space” is part of the research project Women’s Literature: Memories, Peripheries and Resistances in the Lush-Afro-Brazilian Atlantic, with the acronym WomenLit, approved for funding by the Foundation for Science and Technology, in Portugal, and which brought together a team of researchers affiliated with universities and scientific research centers in Portugal, Brazil, Angola, and Mozambique. While the professional affiliation of the organizers of the dossier reflects this breadth and geographical diversity, the articles included explore the writing of women from São Tomé and Príncipe, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, Angola, Brazil, and Portugal. The aim was to think about literature written by women in the Portuguese-Afro-Brazilian space, contributing to a discussion around the representations of memory and post-memory and the questions regarding the definition of literary canons and different literary strategies that resist the representation of hegemonic male subjectivities in narratives of collective memory.
