Abstract

Focusing on short narratives authored by Maria Elsa Rocha, Vimala Devi, Deolinda da Conceição and Henrique Senna Fernandes, this essay aims to investigate the theme of displacement in Goan and Macanese literatures in Portuguese in a comparative perspective. How do these images of mobility represent or allegorize the very status of Goan and Macanese literatures in Portuguese? It shall be argued that linguistic performance in the literary texts highlights both internal and external conflicts and is a basis for thinking in systemic terms the construction of these marginal literatures within the literary system of Portuguese language.
