ResumoThe present article aims to contribute to homosexual history by mapping queer literary translations in Estado Novo Portugal and Socialist Hungary. In view of the legal and censorial dissimilarities in the two countries with regard to same-sex activity, homosexual-themed literature translated from English has been examined in order to detect any possible divergence or convergence in this respect. The analysis also relied on book censorship files stored at the National Archives of the Torre do Tombo as well as the new findings of the Hungarian project English-Language Literature and Censorship, 1945—1989.
