Abstract

Abstract: This paper examines the narrative construction of Jewish women in the short novel “O Mundo Perdido”, by Joaquim Paço d’Arcos, and in the short story “Nasci com Passaporte de Turista”, by Alves Redol.  Both narratives portray the rise of Nazism in Germany in the 1930s and its effects.  Historical, biographical and literary information is taken into consideration to the analysis.
