Post-colonial representation in Ruy Duarte de Carvalho: A reading of Os papéis do inglês. [This dissertation] investigates the fictional narrative of Angolan novelist and anthro-pologist Ruy Duarte de Carvalho. It argues that Os papéis do inglês contains an intricate dis-cursive network which confronts colonial and post-colonial discourses, alongside a critique of the utopian model of the nation which was desired, and effectively constructed, in post-independence Angola. At the same time, the narrative is also constituted in an encounter of diverse literary forms poetry, the diary, prose, and ethnographic essay, making evident the complexity of the novel in question. Starting from Ruy Duarte s book, I approach the literary and political history of Angola, its development, tensions and relations, particularly with the European colonist, its history, both ancient and recent, and its period of independency. I seek to make evident how successive re-readings of colonialist historical and ideological discourses became a rich field for the development of literary narratives that have widened the limits of writing in both the fictional and political-ideological environments. Along with Ruy Duarte de Carvalhos s writings, this work has made use of the studies of Angolan literature, such as those Laura Padilha, Rita Chaves and José Carlos Venâncio; post-colonial critics, such as Antonio Negri, Edward Said, Stuart Hall, Russel Hamilton and Boaventura de Sousa Santos; historical texts produced by Portuguese colonists in Angolan soil, such as Henrique Galvão, Ralph Delgado and José Ribeiro da Cruz; and the writings of African intellectuals, such as Aimé Césaire and Amadou Hampaté-Bá; and, finally, authors who have analysed the relations between anthropology and literature, such as James Clifford
