Abstract

LOCANE, Jorge J.. REFLECTIONS ON PORTUNHOL SELVAGEM. FROM TEACHERS' HORROR TO A "PURE LANGUAGE". perifrasis. rev.lit.teor.crit. [online]. 2015, vol.6, n.12, pp.36-48. ISSN 2145-8987.

Latin American nation states were founded by creole elites based on a monolingual ideology that should also organize national literatures. In opposition to this principle, literatures produced in areas of cultural and linguistic transit have recently begun to gain visibility questioning those colonial orders. This study highlights the importance of literature produced on the border between Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay and demonstrates how its emergence, having caused the regulatory agencies spokesmen's reaction, problematizes cultural and commercial interests.

Keywords : portunhol selvagem; border; language; purism; heterotopia.
