Synopsis

Message, one of the greatest poems in the whole of Portuguese literature, was Fernando Pessoas only book written in Portuguese to be published during his lifetime. It is out of an atmosphere of general European decline, and with unwavering focus on his own country in particular, that Pessoa orchestrates his Message: a telling of the great events and protagonists behind the genesis of Portugal, of the golden age of maritime discovery and of subsequent national entropy, all of it predictive and flowing towards the future construction of a new and different empire: the Fifth Empire, which, in the authors vision, would be a matrix of spirituality, messianism and millenarianism.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Fernando Pessoa (18881935) was born in Lisbon but received an English secondary school education in South Africa. He returned to Lisbon at age 17 years, gradually involving himself with the avant garde literary circles of Portugal. Pessoa wrote a great deal of highly original poetry and prose, but was able to publish little during his lifetime. He was hardly known outside the literary vanguard of Lisbon. The end of his life was marked by a tragic isolation. Pessoa's remarkable fame came posthumously; today many in Portugal and Brazil regard him as the premier poet of the Portuguese language.
