EN
The aim of this article is to present the linguistic situation in Mozambique. In this African country, with population of about 20 millions, post-colonial Portuguese is the official language, even though it is spoken by only 25% of its inhabitants. The majority of people speak as their mother tongue one of 23 African languages belonging to the Bantu group. Other languages spoken in the country include English, which plays an increasingly important role in the society, as well as several languages of Asian origin spoken by some minority groups. In this article, we aim to demonstrate that the linguistic diversity of Mozambique is a consequence of variety of languages spoken in Mozambique and of different historical as well as social, ethnic and regional factors. We also show that the coexistence of Portuguese with the autochthon languages is possible when it refers to different spheres of life.

The paper explores the concept of world literature in the context of national literatures in Portuguese. It analyses the historical and cultural factors that influenced the formation of Portuguese nationhood, which has been historically linked with empire and colonization, and how this has affected the development of multiple “Lusophonias” (national literatures in Portuguese-speaking countries). It also rethinks Portugal’s semi-peripheral position in the European and world contexts and its relation to other Portuguese-speaking spaces and the wider world.

During the second part of the 19th century Iberism acquired importance both as intellectual movement and ideology. This or that form of peninsula integration occupied thinking of Iberian intellectuals at least since the end of reconquista. Spanish and Portuguese dynasties were traditionally intertwined by means of mutual marriages and when, in 1581, Portuguese dynastic crisis took place, peninsular/transatlantic union under the crown of Spanish Hapsburgs was introduced. After the restoration of independence (1640) national traditions and authenticity became favorite topic of conservative Portuguese ideologues (Miguelists, integralists) and symbol of Portuguese identity.

Portugalczycy to bez wątpienia najwięksi w dziejach odkrywcy i podróżnicy. Od XV do XVII wieku panowali na oceanach świata, ale będąc małym krajem bardzo szybko przegrywali walkę o wpływy na większości nowo odkrytych obszarów z mocniejszymi od siebie potęgami europejskimi. Na przełomie XV/XVI wieku portugalskie żaglowce dotarły do wybrzeży dzisiejszej Brazylii i ta, na ponad trzy wieki, stała się perłą w koronie portugalskich posiadłości zamorskich. Tam też, przez wieki, najczęściej emigrowali Portugalczycy. Wyjeżdżali oni jednak nie tylko do swoich kolonii. Portugalia prawie nigdy nie była dostatnim krajem dla większości jej mieszkańców. Od końca XIX wieku do lat 90. wieku XX z kraju wyjechało około 4 mln osób. Według statystyk w 2007 roku poza krajem przebywało niemal 5 mln Portugalczyków. Najwięcej w obu Amerykach 2,8 mln, w Europie diaspora portugalska liczyła w 2007 roku niemal 1,6 mln osób. Portugalczycy nie tylko migrują po świecie, oni są także znakomitymi rybakami, którzy przez ponad 500 lat łowili na Grand Banks, u północno-zachodnich wybrzeży dzisiejszej Kanady. W XX wieku ich obecność na łowiskach wschodniokanadyjskich była zdominowana przez działalność tzw. White Fleet, Frota Branca.

The Portuguese are undoubtedly the greatest explorers and travelers in history. From the 15th to the 17th century, they ruled the world’s oceans, but being a small country they quickly lost their struggle for influence in most newly discovered areas to stronger European powers. At the turn of the 15th and 16th centuries, Portuguese sailing ships reached the coast of today’s Brazil, which for over three centuries became the pearl in the crown of Portuguese overseas possessions for centuries. It was also Brazil where the Portuguese emigrated most often. However, they were leaving not only to their colonies. Portugal almost never was a prosperous country for most of its inhabitants. In the period of 100 years, from the end of the 19th century to the 1990s, about 4 million people left the country. According to statistics, in 2007, almost 5 million Portuguese lived outside their country. The largest number of them lived in the Americas – 2.8 million, while across Europe the Portuguese Diaspora in 2007 was as large as almost 1.6 million people. Not only do the Portuguese migrate around the world, but they are also intrepid fishermen who fished for over 500 years on the Grand Banks, on the north-western coast of today’s Canada. In the 20th century, their presence in the East Canadian fisheries was dominated by the so-called White Fleet, Frota Branca
