Abstract
Abstract: This essay-bibliography examines Goan poetry through echoes of Indo-Portuguese culture, focusing on poets born in the late nineteenth or early twentieth century, and who represent a long-ignored enclave of cultural hybridity. The author discusses these formative years in view of the topics of the poetry, the language, the distinctive features of Indo-Portuguese lyrics, and what it means to write as a Portuguese poet in Goa. The study includes a selected bibliography of the principal poets of Goa since the middle of the nineteenth century, complete with some biographical notes, and a selected critical bibliography on Goa and Goan poetry. Useful indications of libraries where these texts can be found in the US, France, Portugal, and Goa are also indicated when available.
