Description

Abstract:: After presenting two translations and three poems written by him, the author, a poet and memoirist, turns to Fernando Pessoa for clues to understanding the distinctly Portuguese form of identity creation as it is exhibited in Portuguese literature, as well as the immigrant/emigrant experience, finally understanding his own relationship to Azorean Portuguese identity.; Após apresentar duas traduções e três poemas da sua autoria, o autor, um poeta e um escritor de memórias, recorre a Pessoa em busca de pistas para entender a forma distintamente portuguesa de criação de identidade, tal como é exibida na literatura portuguesa, bem como a experiência de imigrante/emigrante, compreendendo finalmente a sua própria relação com a identidade portuguesa açoriana.
