| Abstract | The present text aims to reflect on the history of heteronym in Portuguese literature, retreating until the advent of Romanticism, moment of the first symptoms of the breakdown of the subject’s unit, Stuart Hall dixit. Even though the features advocated by Fernando Pessoa for heteronomy creation – proper name, unique biography and alternative literary writing – are not fully present in Filinto Elísio and João Mínimo, it is possible to look at these two figures as sketches of a theory in formation. If it is true that Fernando Pessoa is the creator of the term heteronym, it is no less safe to say that his theory is a long process that occurs throughout the nineteenth century, having its full maturation in the time of vanguards and Modernism, key moment of the collapse of the positivist view of the world. The question of the journey and the image of the exile occupy a prominent place in the configuration of the characters under study. |
