A Coreia do Norte tem sido conhecida até aos nossos dias sobretudo através de imagens divulgadas no contexto mediático internacional. No sentido de alargar o escopo de perspetivas e olhares sobre este espaço estrangeiro, bem como de apresentar formas alternativas de o entender, nesta dissertação é estudada a representação da Coreia do Norte recorrendo a um suporte discursivo diferente do habitual: os relatos de viagem. Pondo em confronto estereótipos e algumas das imagens veiculadas nas obras escolhidas, procura-se compreender e determinar os contornos do imaginário construído acerca deste país. Paralelamente, interroga-se ainda o modo como a representação da Coreia do Norte poderá estar a mudar ao cabo da última década, decorrente do crescente empreendimento de viagens semelhantes ao território norte-coreano.
Until today, North Korea has come to be known through images spread in the international mediatic context. In trying to broaden the scope of perspectives and viewpoints about this foreign space, as well as to introduce alternative ways to understand it, the North Korean representation is hereby studied through a less conventional medium: travel writing. Opposing stereotypes and some of the images conveyed in the chosen literary works, we aim to grasp and determine the outlines of the constructed imaginary about this country. Concurrently, it is interrogated how North Korea’s representation might be changing over the last decade’s span, also due to the increase in the number of trips to the North Korean territory.
