COELHO2, Maria Inês    . Narratives of life experience about the Portuguese Overseas War:. []. , 44, pp.46-66.   30--2023. ISSN 0872-3419.  https://doi.org/10.21747/08723419/soc44a3.

Starting from the analysis of an oral corpus of life narratives of Portuguese soldiers mobilized for the Overseas military campaigns during 1969 and 1974, this article aims to constitute itself as a reflective exercise on the experience of war, seen as a collectively shared construct. We seek to understand not only the place of the body in the way the military and war experience is appropriated, but also to verify the effects of the tensions and displacements of such experiences in the former combatants of the Portuguese Colonial War.
