Abstract: This dissertation’s purpose was to analyze the existential subjectivity of the character Imani Nsambe, narrator of the historiographical metafiction Sands of the Emperor, by Mia Couto,composed of the novels Women of the Ashes (2015), The Sword and the Spear (2016) and TheDrinker of Horizons (2018), thus seeking to understand which elements and factors promoteda colonial experience’s perception, crossed by racial discriminationand being a woman,leading to the formation of her feeling, thinking and acting. Thereby, using the basic fanonian concepts theory such as internalization, identity closure, zone of non-being, affective erythrism, recognition and struggle for recognition, double consciousness and double narcissism, besides Sartre's contributions to Existentialist theory, Simone de Beauvoir in the matter ofgender, Hegel in the elaboration of the dialectic of Master and Slave in order to determine thestruggle for recognition of two consciousnesses, among other theoretical contributions. Thecurrent research, based on the conception elaborated by Frantz Fanon, in his work Black Skin,White Masks (1952), that colonization processes generated a change in the social structurepromoted by racism, in addition to several psychological changes that resulted in a collectivepsychic neurosis of blacks and whites, covered the historical context of Mozambique at thenineteenth century’s end, as well as the social body’s formation of the Imani tribe, the issue ofbeing a woman in these circumstances and the emotional involvement with Sergeant Germanode Melo, a character who represents the colonizer to, in this way, identify the ontology inwhich thecharacterwas created.
