Pessimistic History: Santomean Identity, Pessimism and History in two 19th century texts
| Resumo: | This paper adds to the scholarly literature about the Santomean past by analyzing the specific language used in the 19th century texts written by José Joaquim Lopes de Lima and Raimundo José da Cunha Matos. By considering the literary techniques employed by these two writers, the paper can elucidate the literary trends that became entrenched as standard ways of writing and thinking about São Tomé. In particular, Matos and Lima presented images and language of varying societies on São Tomé island, but they wrote about these as a singular colonial society. Their singular island society came to define the idea of “São Tomé” for foreign readers and local people. |
