Abstract

From the concepts of trauma and memory on, the objective of this text is to think on some aspect of Portuguese cultural identity in confrontation with Guinean ones presented on the novel A Última tragédia,(The last tra­gedy) by Abdulai Sila (1995), reinforcing some discoursive strategies on colonialism and Colonial War. It also focuses on resistency associated to the tragedy brought up by the novel and registered by history as a way of questioning and evaluating the post colonial.
