Produktbeschreibung
In Singa Leão Pura Cidade, we tried to take a different approach to the theme of mixed race and Lusodescendence, aiming to understand images and stereotypes built, over the years, about these communities and also to perform our own approach to our space of analysis: the Lusodescendant community of Singapore. We have detected, at first, the emergence of a community which, from the ethnic and linguistic point of view, has the sea as its cradle. We then proceeded to an analysis of the Portuguese views on these Lusodescendant communities in Southeast Asia, particularly Singapore, thus glimpsing the successive dominant currents in the way of experiencing a space and a community and guessing details of the political and cultural contexts in which the works were produced. Starting from the idea of the Culture of Discovery, we took into consideration the creation of a discursive body of knowledge about the Orient. On the other hand, for an analysis of the community's life unfolding, as well as for a better view of the traces of its current identity and the presence of a Portugal in the eye, we used two types of instruments: autochthonous texts and questionnaires.
