In both Brazilian and Goan literary criticism, what has been designated as "Indianism" has distinct referents and cronologies. The presence of the Indian in Brazilian nascent literature is a phenomenon of its early Romanticism. As for the passion for classical India in Goan poetry written in the Portuguese language, its peak dates from the turn of the century. This text aims to understand this phenomenon as a transnational manifestation of nativist discourse in Portuguese-speaking territories. In order to understand indianist poetry, one has to study its socio-cultural meanings and to investigate the ways in which European literary forms are transformed through it, which will be done through a carefull reading of Gonçalves Dias’ and Paulino Dias’ poems.Downloads
