Resumo (PT): Os veteranos com deficiências resultantes da Primeira Guerra Mundial assumem a forma paradoxal do herói mutilado. A participação controversa de Portugal na frente europeia da Primeira Guerra Mundial transformou esses veteranos num símbolo inconveniente a ser ignorado no período politicamente instável depois da guerra. Desde a demora em reconhecê-los oficialmente até a lenta mobilização coletiva, tais veteranos resistem à análise, seja pela escassez de fontes, seja pela dificuldade em se orientar numa era pós-guerra em que se queria celebrar ligeiramente a vitória mutilada e logo esquecer-se de qualquer traço dela. Este trabalho pretende caracterizar a aparência destes homens no âmbito público e sua consagração como vítimas da decisão do estado de participar da guerra.
Abstract (EN): The disabled veterans of World War I take the paradoxical form of the mutilated hero. Portugal’s barely consensual participation in the European front of World War I turned disabled veterans into an inconvenient symbol to be neglected in the politically unstable post-war period. From the delay in official recognition to the slow collective mobilization, the disabled prove hard to analyze, whether because of the lack of sources or the difficulty in positioning them in a post-war era eager to celebrate and then quickly forget the vestiges of mutilated victory. This paper seeks to characterize the appearance of these men in public space and their consecration as victims of the state’s decision to go to war.
