Resumo: O artigo se insere nos debates sobre a memória do colonialismo português, analisando-a a partir da Interseccionalidade entre Gênero, Raça e Sexualidade. São investigadas as narrativas em torno do Corpo Colonial dos Museus dos Descobrimentos Portugueses, a fim de perceber em que (des)(re)constroem discursos das Exposições do Império Português. A metodologia segue uma inspiração na analítica foucaultiana dos discursos: a arque-genealogia. Como técnicas de pesquisa, são utilizadas: observação direta e entrevistas, no caso dos Museus; e a análise documental histórica em fontes secundárias, no caso das Exposições. As conclusões apontam que há uma tentativa de deslocamento discursivo por parte dos Museus, os quais buscam dissociar Descobrimentos e Colonização. No entanto, há elementos discursivos que se repetem, como a nudez e o exotismo, reconstruindo a Colonialidade dos Corpos de origem não europeia.

Abstract: This paper is inserted in the current debates on the memory of Portuguese colonialism. This memory is analyze it from the Intersectionality between Gender, Race and Sexuality. The focus is on the narratives around the Colonial Body present in the Portuguese Discoveries Museums and the Exhibitions of the Portuguese Empire. The methodology follows an inspiration in the Michel Foucault analysis of the discourses. As research techniques, it is used: direct observation and interviews, in the case of Museums; and, the historical documentary analysis in secondary sources, in the case of Exhibitions. The conclusions point out that there is an attempt of discursive displacement on the part of the Museums, which seek to dissociate Discoveries and Colonization. However, there are also many repeating discursive elements, such as nudity and exoticism, rebuilding the Coloniality of Bodies of non-European origin.

This article analyses <Brazilian women> in the social imaginary in Portugal through the Foucaultian analytical triad "knowledge-power-subjectivation", combined with feminist and de-colonial perspectives. The article begins with a retrospective genealogy of media and touristic discourses, based on interviews and documents, in order to unveil the knowledge-power discursive order in the image of <Brazilian women>. The second part analyzes subjectivations of Brazilian immigrant women in Portugal, drawing on interviews and participant observation, to unveil situations of prejudice and discrimination and shed light on how the women confront the discursive order by resisting and re-existing as subjects. According to the conclusions, Brazilian women are seen as a "colonial body" to the extent that they are defined, essentialized, and stigmatized through characteristics attributed to them ever since the historical colonial period and related to hypersexuality. Three modes of subjectivation are identified by which these women resist stigma and re-exist: passive, affirmative, and combative resistance.

Dans cet article, on examine l'imaginaire social <femme brésilienne> au Portugal à partir du trio analytique foucaultien "savoir-pouvoirsubjectivation, dans des optiques de féminisme et de décolonisation. On commence par une archéo-généalogie de discours médiatiques et touristiques empiriquement fondée sur des entretiens et documents, en vue de préciser l'ordre discursif du savoir-pouvoir <femme brésilienne>. La seconde partie correspond à une analyse des subjectivations de femmes brésiliennes expatriées au Portugal, effectuée à partir d'entretiens et d'une observation participante pour chercher à y détecter des situations de préjugés et de discrimination et comprendre comment elles cassent l'ordre du discours par leur résistance et leur réexistence comme sujets. On conclut que les Brésiliennes sont vues comme un "corps colonial" puisque définies, essentialisées et stigmatisées par des caractéristiques attribuées au colonialisme historique marquées par l'hypersexualité. Les modes de subjectivation montrent qu'elles résistent de trois façons: résistance passive, affirmative et combative.
