Excerpt from Portuguese Literature to the End of the 18th Century: Being a Lecture Delivered at Manchester University on the 1st February, 1909 The introduction of Italian poetry, especially that of Petrarch, promoted a revival of Spanish verse which accounts for its superiority to and absolute authority in Portugal throughout the 15th century. The Constable D. Pedro, son of the Infant of that name, made himself the first representative of the new school which adopted a taste for allegory and a reverence for classical antiquity, - both derived from Italy. He wrote in Castilian as well as in Portuguese, and to him it was that the Marquis de Santillana addressed the famous letter in which he outlined the history of Peninsular verse.

Excerpt from Luis De Camões and the Lusiads Portuguese literature probably suggests the Letters of a Portuguese N nn which are m French, or the Sonnets from the P07 tngnese which are in English. This neglect is, no doubt, due to the political position of Portugal. If Portugal were an impor tant nation politically, literary lion-hunters would be busy discovering masterpieces in Portuguese literature. But Portugal does not count much in the comity of nations, and consequently her literature does not count much, too. Snobbery, unfortunately, is an evil not unknown even among the intellectually elect. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book includes 21 chapters dedicated to the study of contemporary, Portuguese and Brazilian poets influenced by the Greco-Roman tradition. It integrates the international bibliography on reception studies in an Ibero-American context. However, the comparison between poets from the two countries highlights the cultural community that, despite the differences, unites them. Travels, routes, and adventures, taken in a linear or symbolic sense, are the common trace of all contributions. The variety of tastes, the greater or smaller closeness to the ancient models, and the authors’ preferences contribute to an overall view of the classical imprint on contemporary poetry as a specific area of literature.

Excerpt from Lessons in Portuguese Commercial Correspondence The constantly increasing importance of the Portuguese language, as a commercial medium between this country and Portugal and Brazil, is sufficient excuse for the publication of this small volume of commercial correspondence. This work is intended primarily for students who are practically at the beginning of their studies in the language; the Lessons have, therefore, been rendered as simple as possible; firstly, by the selection of models which do not contain involved or intricate phraseology, and, secondly, by the copious foot-notes and explanations of difficult points of idiom or grammar.

Excerpt from Portugal, Its Land and People It is, however, to the typical life and scenes of the land that I have devoted the chief attention; more especially for the reason that the hospitality accorded me during my stay afforded opportunities for studies of the kind that are not universally granted. It is possible to exaggerate the import ance of the byways. Yet it seems to me that these reveal a nearer road to the true heart of a nation than a stately pro cession along the monumental glories that show it in its most exalted moods alone.

Portugal was not always the best place for poets in the sixteenth century. Against the backdrop of an expanding empire, the country's annexation by Spain in 1580, and ongoing religious controversy, poets struggled to articulate their worth to rulers and patrons. This did not prevent them, however, from persisting in their craft. Indeed, many of their works reflected precisely on the question of what poetry could do and what, ultimately, its value was. The answers that poets like Luís de Camões, Francisco de Sá de Miranda, António Ferreira, and Diogo Bernardes offered to these questions, and which are explored in this book, ranged from lofty ideals to the more practical concerns of making ends meet when one depended on the whims of the powerful. This volume articulates a 'pragmatics of poetry' that combines literary analysis and book history with methods from sociology (network analysis, sociology of professions, valuation studies) to explore how poets thought about themselves and negotiated the value of their verse in the court, with patrons, or in the marketplace for books. It reveals how poets compared their work to that of lawyers and doctors and tried to set themselves apart as a special group of professionals. It shows how they threatened their patrons as well as flattered them and tried to turn their poetry from a gift into something like a commodity or service that had to be paid for. While poets set out to write in the most ambitious genres and to better their European rivals, they sometimes refused to spend months composing an epic without the prospect of reward. Their books of verse, when printed, were framed as linguistic propaganda as well as objects of material and aesthetic worth at a time when many said that non-devotional poetry was a sinful waste of time. This is a book about the various ways in which poets, metaphorically and more literally, tried to turn poetry and the paper it was written on into gold.

Like previous collections based on congresses of the European Society of Translation Studies (EST), this volume presents the latest insights and findings in an ever-changing, ever-challenging domain. The twenty-six papers, carefully chosen from about 140 presented at the 4th EST Congress, offer a bird's eye view of the most pressing concerns and most exciting vistas in Translation Studies today. The editors' final choices reflect a focus on quality of approach, originality of topic, and clarity of presentation, and aim at capturing the most salient developments in the contemporary theory, methodology and technology of TS. As always in EST, the themes covered relate to translation as well as interpreting. They include discussion of a broad range of text-types and skopoi, and a diversity of themes, such as translation universals, translation strategies, translation and ideology, perception of translated humor, translation tools, etc. Many of the papers force us to take a fresh look at seemingly well established paradigms and familiar notions, while also making recourse to work being done in other disciplines (Semiotics, Linguistics, Discourse Analysis, Contrastive Studies).

The contributions to this volume cover a large diachronic, geographical, and cultural space. Some of the texts go back to antiquity, using the Odyssey as the most significant source for several reflections, both ancient and contemporary, and therefore the safest link between old and contemporary versions. In addition, in the modern and contemporary summaries and tales analysed here, predominance is given to epics (Homer and other famous stories known from the epic cycle) as a source, exemplified by texts belonging to various literary works from across the globe, focused on the influence that major political phenomena can have on universal creativity.
