The present dissertation discusses the past representation in A Costa dos Murmúrios. We intend to analyze the way by which the colonial period is pictured in the novel, searching for the strategies used by Lídia Jorge to conceive a distinctive record of this historical period. Portugal s history is re-evaluated and questioned, what results in a rupture with the ideological established patterns. Versions so far neglected, start to contribute to a overall understanding of the portuguese past. This study reveals the deconstruction of the regime s ideological discourse performed by the novel, which relativize the truths radiated by the standard nation´s narrative. This work examines how Jorge s narrative promotes the articulation between history and fiction, problematizing their traditional distinction. This analysis seeks to identify how the novel is related to the innovated theses of Hayden White, Walter Benjamin, Linda Hutcheon, among others, emerged as part of the epistemological renovation process of the early XX century
