Os destinatários dos panfletos pessoanos de 1923
| Resumo: | In 1923, Fernando Pessoa published two pamphlets against the moralizing campaign of the so-called Action League of Lisbon Students, a group of Catholic students who pressed and obtained from the authorities the seizure and destruction of allegedly “immoral” books on sale in bookstores. Pessoa sent copies of his protest pamphlets by mail to 205 recipients, chosen among the cream of Portuguese doctors, psychiatrists, scientists, teachers, writers, artists, lawyers, engineers and journalists. We thus have an image, though somewhat circumstantial, of what Pessoa considered to be an intellectual and opinion-forming élite in his contemporary Portugal. The complete list of the recipients is presented here with a short biography of each one. |
