Abstract(s)
As marcas temporais gravadas de forma tão dolorosa na História pelas vagas epi- e pandémicas que assola(ra)m a Humanidade desde logo facilitam, mas também determinam a leitura do quanto houve ou não de expressão literária das mesmas. Este estudo panorâmico visa apresentar um olhar transversal em torno da forma como os fenómenos pandémicos são lidos e/ou usados pela literatura ao longo da História, com particular atenção ao caso português.
Epi- and pandemic outbreaks hitting Humanity are carved into Human History in such a painful way that it allows for the easy chronological outlining of their (rarely abundant) literary expression, but also for a heightened sense of their continuous indirect effect on literature and culture. This study strives to present a crit-ical panorama of the way in which such public health phenomena have been read and/or have fueled literary imagination throughout History, in Portugal and elsewhere.
