Resumo(s)
This chapter examines how Angolan editorial projects such as Cultura (Luanda, 1957–59), Mensagem (Lisbon, 1944–64), and Imbondeiro (Sá da Bandeira, now Lubango, 1960–64) challenged colonial borders as political and symbolic constructs during the late colonial period. These initiatives employed literature as a form of resistance, demonstrating how African writers engaged in transnational debates about culture, liberation, and solidarity. Situating these projects within broader networks of Pan-African and “Third-Worldist” internationalism highlights their entanglement with colonial repression, exile, and Cold War dynamics, also foregrounding the circulations of Angolan intellectuals in Italy and the GDR, and of journals between Angola and Portugal. Although these cultural networks were often precarious and contested, they helped to redefine notions of community and belonging, emphasizing the role of publishing in anticolonial struggles. I argue that the anti-colonial border emerged in this context as both a condition and a method, opening ways of imagining and realizing liberation from colonialism while also negotiating contradictions generated by the colonial situation.
