Abstract
This essay focuses on the literary image of contemporary Lisbon. Through an analysis of the anthology Lisbon Tales and Trails (2017) and Djaimilia Pereira de Almeida’s Luanda, Lisboa, Paraíso (2018), I examine how Lisbon’s representation on a global stage exposes the complexities and ambiguities of a metropolitan area deeply connected to the legacies of empire. Moving through fictional texts from the city center to the suburban periphery, I offer a focused reflection on Lisbon’s postcolonial/post-imperial ethnoscape.
本文着重探讨当代里斯本的文学形象。通过对选集《里斯本的故事与轨迹》（2017）和Djaimilia Pereira de Almeida的《罗安达，里斯本，帕拉索》（2018）的分析，我考察了里斯本在全球舞台上的表现如何暴露出一个与帝国遗产紧密相连的大都市地区的复杂性和模糊性。通过从市中心到郊区的虚构文本，我对里斯本的后殖民/后帝国种族景观进行了集中反思。
