Abstract: The Carnation Revolution. Image and Mythology. Eduardo Gageiro’s photograph showing a soldier about to take the portrait of dictator Salazar off the wall at the political police headquarters the day after the Portuguese Revolution of April 25, 1974 evokes a major and symbolic turn in the overthrow of the regime and works as an allegory of change. Yet after all these years, the outcome of that revolutionary dream spurred on by utopian desire remains complex, and its realisation in the form of democracy conceals the loss of lustre of the initial dream. In the light of this apparent contradiction, it is worth revisiting the circumstances that galvanized the revolution and the benefits obtained in terms of rights and freedom, as illustrated by Literature. Fiction, in particular, amplifies History by its storytelling of myths in a space where human desire takes on a role of reconstructing invisible realities. It is in this context that the book entitled Les mémorables (The Outstanding) finds its place. Keywords: revolution, carnations, myth, utopia, history, outstanding. |
