| Abstract | This study aimed to bring together, in the crucible of time, two characters belonging to two works separated by a temporal distance – A Queda dum Anjo by Camilo Castelo Branco and O Vendedor de Passados by José Eduardo Agualusa. The purpose was to demonstrate that the attachment to the past – both in the case of Camilo’s hero and Agualusa’s protagonist – represents a means of identity construction as well as of social affirmation and adaptation. In any case, one certainty cannot be concealed: we are faced with two characters inscribed under the sign of a present made up of pasts, though with different implications and consequences for each. |
