1974 and 1975 in Portugal were years of change and hope for a new democratic era. But were also the years in which the Portuguese had to confront the heavy legacies of their colonialism. After more than 40 years, the “dark legacies” of the end of the Portuguese empire remain a memorial field fraught with fractures, traumas and silences. From the curatorial experience of the exhibition Retornar - Traços de Memória, this paper intends to explore the theoretical, methodological, epistemological and ideological issues related to the construction of memories of illegitimate inheritances, in particular of Portuguese colonialism.
