Abstract

This article presents a way of bringing a city to life through an operation carried out in newspapers. In methodological terms, the operation was accompanied by methodological contributions, which took the form of an analysis of newspapers and published articles, based on the assumption that newspaper reports are not free from interference.  The images of the colonial city of Luanda obtained through archaeological work carried out in the pages of newspapers reveal places of memory, passages and panoramas that inscribe a colonial city of Luanda with a nostalgic and melancholic ‘air’, with an image of progress in the name of modernity.

Keywords: city of Luanda; newspapers; columnists; journalists.
