CARDAO, Marcos. “History always favors the winners”: Heróis do Mar and the invention of nationalist pop in the 1980s. Anál. Social [online]. 2019, n.231, pp.256-283. ISSN 0003-2573. https://doi.org/10.31447/AS00032573.2019231.02.
Pioneers in performing international pop styles in Portugal, the group Heróis do Mar initiated an historical revisionism of the Portuguese Discoveries, exalting both the spirit of crusade and the so-called Portuguese universalism. Assuming that audiovisual culture was a key element in the Portuguese cultural life in the 1980s, and that the Portuguese Discoveries found in pop music a new form of transmission and celebration, in this article I analyze the emergence of Portuguese nationalist pop through the practices, rituals, and discourses of Heróis do Mar, a group that developed a peculiar relationship between pop music, nation, and the uses of History.
