Description

This book deals with ethnicity and immigration in literature, namely the Portuguese and their contributions to American society, economy, culture, and literature. Portuguese American literature written in English by American writers of Portuguese descent has come of age recently with the critically acclaimed writers Frank Gaspar and Katherine Vaz. This study includes a full length analysis of works by Thomas Braga, Julian Silva, Alfred Lewis, Charles Felix and other voices. It attempts to explore America's understanding of its ethnic minorities, ethnic pride and the celebration of one's roots.

His most recent book, *Representations of the Portuguese in American Literature* was published by the University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth in 2008.
