Within the universe of contradictions that defined colonial society, Óscar Ribas’s work dynamically articulates the complex relation between intellectual activity and historical process. His career underscores the many impasses faced by authors committed to developing discourse rooted in an understanding of Angola and the formation of a productive imaginary capable of resisting the occlusions and/or the stereotypical vision that characterized colonial literature.
