Om bidragsyterne
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.
Poesia. First Anthology offers English-language readers a bilingual edition of the first anthology that was made of Fernando Pessoa's poetic work. Edited and introduced by Adolfo Casais Monteiro in the 1940s, it comprises a fine selection of poems as well as several prose texts, including the letter Pessoa addressed to Casais Monteiro explaining the origin of his heteronyms. The book includes a preface by George Monteiro and an essay by Eduardo Lourenço. Translation by Austen Hyde and illustrations by Kleber Sales.
