Muse Reborn: The Poetry of Antonio Ferreira

This pioneering work examines the literary and aesthetic achievements of Ant'onio Ferreira (1528-1569), an important but neglected Portuguese poet whose Poemas Lusitanos is a monument of Renaissance literature. Though a disciple of classical poets, Ferreira emerged as an individual talent, writing in Portuguese and introducing previously unfamiliar poetic genres to Portuguese literature. Including translations of all quotations, The Muse Reborn is essential reading for all students of Portuguese literature.Earle, T.
