Abstract: During the long years of colonialism, Macao has gradually formed two separate areas, “Christ City” and “China Town”. “Macao” is a literary space where discourses from all sides compete. The Macao Cultural Affairs Bureau, an official institution of the Macao Portuguese government, launched the “Portuguese Writers Series” in an attempt to implant the Portuguese national spirit in “Macao literature”; the “Five Selections of Macao Literature” selected and edited by local writers organized by the Macao Foundation, express their identity through the “meta-narrative” of “Macao literature is rooted in China”; the “Selected Works of Macao Macanese Literature” co-launched by the Macao literature research community tries to reconcile the above contradictions, emphasizing the cross-cultural identity of Macanese literature. This construction is not purely objective, but an “invention” of the Macanese literary tradition by the party that ultimately won the cultural leadership. Examining the historical context of the formation of Macao literature in the transitional period and its plural forms will help us think about the cross-regional attributes in regional literature.
