Abstract

ThIS ARTICLE ESTABLISHES A PARALLEL CONCERNING THE LITERARY TREATMENT DEVOTED TO TWO KEY EVENTS IN THE HISTORY OF BRAZIL AND TO GUINEA-BISSAU AS SPACES OF BELONGING. IN GUINEA-BISSAU PINDJIGUITI IS A NATIONAL SYMBOL; IN BRAZIL, PALMARES AND ITS HEROES ARE ABOVE ALL LINKED TO THE STRUGGLES AND CLAIMS OF THE AFRICAN DESCENT POPULATION. THE EPISODE AND ITS CONSEQUENCES ARE NOT ASSUMED AS SYMBOLS OF BRAZILIANNES, BEING THEMATIZED ALMOST EXCL USIVELY BY AFRO-BRAZILIAN INTELLECTUALS, WRITERS, AND MUSICIANS.
