«There are no criminals[,] only condemned men» — Literary Expressions of Global Epidemics
| Resumo: | 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 critical 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. |
