Description
A unique anthology, which brings together and relates the Lyrical and Epic poetry of what is considered, by many, the greatest Portuguese poet of all time and one of the greatest poets of all time. The organization and introduction are by Hélder Macedo, and the texts and translation into English are by Thomas Earle, two of the most renowned experts on the author. The beautiful illustrations, 20, in Indian ink, are, once again, by the multi-award-winning visual artist André Carrilho, who developed work using a technique that is less common to him. The result, artistically striking, accentuates the modernity of Camões’ poetry, already reflected in the title of the work, “A Global Poet for Today”, and in the introduction by Hélder Macedo.
