Worlding Literatures in Portuguese
Abstract The case of the several literatures that choose to express themselves in Portuguese (Portugal, Brasil, Angola, Moçambique, Cabo Verde, São Tomé e Príncipe, next to the special cases of Goa and Macao) allows us to approach world literature from a more complex perspective than that derived from the sole consideration of the English speaking world. Several corollaries may be mentioned: the enriching of the concept of cosmopolitanism; the need to invent a way of reading that is based on the possibility of estrangement; the revision of an idea of Europe that goes beyond eurocentrism. The consideration of the Portuguese-speaking literatures leads us to reconsider some of the foundations of comparatism and of world literature.
