Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, a collection of poems originally published in 1887, explores love, loss, nature, and religion, through the voice of the author, as a man in the prime of life. Within the cannon of Portuguese poetry, the work is a showcase of themes in Portuguese Romantic and Neo-Romantic poetry, widely popular at the time of its publication. The main body of the text consists of sonnets and lyrical poems, which speak to the author's personal tales of romance, loss, and heartbreak, and offer reflections on the beauty of the natural world and one's place within it. The concluding section of the book is a narrative poem that retells the Biblical story of Jesusâ appearance after the resurrection, told from the perspective of the child apostle John, and shows the author's deep engagement with religious ideas and his personal faith. The poems in this collection demonstrate the author's deep engagement with 19th Century Portuguese literary forms such as the sonnet, and through them, this book offers a window into the themes and style of Portuguese Neo-Romantic poetry.
