Abstract

The essay discusses the critical reception of the literary work of João Paulo Borges Coelho in Brazil. The material analysed is the production of academic articles in Brazilian publications. The essay is organized in four parts. In the first one, I present the notion of literary work as the conquest of the production of Borges Coelho. In the second part, I discuss some issues of the critical reception in Brazil of Mozambican literature, proposing a different framework from the notion of world literature. In the third, I analyze characteristics of the critical reception of Borges Coelho in Brazil. Finally, I propose new research fronts.
