This volume highlights recent research on women's authorship in the Afro-Luso-Brazilian Atlantic, intersecting memory studies, postcolonialism, and world literature. It explores how women's literary and critical works act as cultural resistance, challenging hegemonic male narratives. Using a comparative approach, it examines canonical and non-canonical writers, including those using social media and slam poetry. Themes include gender, race, violence, and exclusion, analyzed intersectionally. Essays discuss how women's writing deconstructs memory legacies and challenges patriarchy, neoliberalism, and Western hegemony. Methodology includes comparative analysis and fieldwork across Lusophone countries, featuring interviews and local events.
