This book takes an innovative approach to the study of memories of
transit and exile in Portugal between 1933 and 1945 in artistic
media. Informed by contemporary debates within memory and
translation studies, it develops a translational perspective on
transcultural memory and explores its ethical implications. This
study provides an in-depth analysis of Daniel Blaufuks's inter-art
project Sob Ceus Estranhos, Domingos Amaral's novel Enquanto
Salazar Dormia and Joao Canijo's documentary Fantasia Lusitana. It
examines the heterocultural networks of signification that these
artistic media mobilize to implicate the presence of World War II
refugees in Portugal in contemporary negotiations of communality.
By approaching memory through a translational lens on culture, this
book also offers new perspectives on remediation, memory transfer
and the ethical dimensions of remembrance in the context of
transcultural memory and migration.
