Reference: A FUNÇÃO DOS DÊITICOS NA ORGANIZAÇÃO DO TEXTO

Reference information:
Article in Portuguese - the English abstract is poor - on deixis in a text by Jose Saramago. It concentrates on showing how the author uses pronouns - I, you, they - in the text. This might be confusing as Saramago switches between 'I' (eu) and the 'royal' we (nos) when directly addressing the reader.
