A questão agrária na literatura neorrealista portuguesa

The themes that were studied by scholars and politicians interested in the agrarian issue in Portugal throughout the centuries are also present in literature dealing with the agrarian world. During the 20th century, the literary current that most strongly expressed the social concerns of the rural world was Neorealism. This study of the universe of neorealist authors and themes has the purpose of synthesizing images that were constructed over the Alentejo region, in the southern part of Portugal, and which were important for the agrarian reform that took place in the Alentejo in 1975.
