Resumo(s)
In 1940, the Portuguese regime, named Estado Novo, hosted its
biggest national exhibition: the Exhibition of the Portuguese
World (EPW).
The event aimed both to commemorate Portuguese history and
to justify the teleological nature of the dictatorship. This article
discusses the national identity narrative conveyed by the allegorical
pavilions conceived for the historical section of the EPW. In
examining the ephemeral architecture and the debate which arose
among intellectuals at the event, this article explores the process
of narration and reinterpretation surrounding the display and
elucidates the complex process of reception by the citizenry
