Hilarino Carlos Rodrigues da Luz Fragments of Cape Verdean Daily Life in the Work of Jorge Barbosa

Produktbeskrivelse

This small publication aims to briefly present some themes of Cape Verdean reality in the work of Jorge Barbosa (1902-1971). It consists of poetry; "Crónicas de S. Vicente"; letters; some articles; interviews; two short stories; a critical review; and an unpublished novel, which he left unfinished. It resulted from the capture of a reality that seemed hidden, but which he managed to publicise through his writing. In this way, the author in question played a necessary role in the construction of an engaged and nationally based literature, which functioned as a mechanism for recording what he visualised in his daily life.
