Abstract
No âmbito dos ciclos comemorativos oficiais dedicados a Luis Vaz de Ca-mões, o mais ilustre dos poetas portugueses, foi organizado, em 1969, o IV Centenário da Estada de Luís de Camões na Ilha de Moçambique (1569-1969). A demorada estada de Camões na Ilha de Moçambique, entre os anos de 1567 e 1569, alguns anos após a sua primeira passagem, deixaria marcas indeléveis no património histórico de origem portuguesa e no imaginário coletivo da população moçambicana. Pretende-se, com o presente artigo, proceder à análise do programa oficial promovido pelas comissões responsáveis pela organização e condução das atividades e festividades na ainda província de Moçambique, através dos múltiplos organismos acoplados à máquina administrativa central e ultra-marina do Estado Novo nos últimos anos do regime autoritário. Seguida-mente proceder-se-á à identificação cronológica e apreciação crítica das ati-vidades culturais, ações científicas e composições artísticas levadas a cabo durante as comemorações camonianas de 1969.
As part of the official commemorative cycles dedicated to Luis Vaz de Camões, the most illustrious of Portuguese poets, the IV Centenary of Luis de Camões stay on the Island of Mozambique (1569-1969) was organized in 1969.The long stay of Camões on the Island of Mozambique, between the years of 1567 and 1569, some years after his first passage, would leave indelible marks at the historical heritage of Portuguese origin and at the collective imagination of the Mozambican population.The aim of this article is to analyse the official program promoted by the commissions responsible for organizing and conducting the activities and festivities, through the multiple organisms attached to the central and over-seas administration of the Estado Novo in the last years of the authoritar-ian regime. Then, the chronological identification and critical appreciation of cultural activities, scientific actions and artistic compositions carried out during the camonian commemorations in 1969 will also be done.
