Receção das literaturas de língua portuguesa na Sérvia

This paper aims to explain the reception of literatures in Portuguese language in the Serbian cultural space. Firstly, I will study the relations between Portugal and Serbia from historical and diplomatic perspectives, and afterwards I will focus on the teaching of the Portuguese language and culture in the former Yugoslavia, highlighting the translation activity in the process of approaching the Lusophone and Slavic worlds, namely Serbian world. One of the topics to be analyzed are the stereotypes about Portugal in Serbia, before and after contact with literature, concluding that the path of cultural cooperation in the Iberian and Slavic languages — is open, but always with new perspectives to explore.
