Eugénio de Castro between Symbolism and Modernism.

  • Maria João Reynaud Faculdade de Letras / Universidade do Porto (CITCEM)

Abstract

In the symbolist constellation, Eugénio de Castro (1869-12019) is not only one of his greatest figures, but also an author whose work remains today misunderstood and insufficiently studied, despite his repercussion abroad, where he was – and is – the object of a very just appreciation. The celebration of the 150th anniversary of his birth opens the possibility of re-appreciating his poetry in the context of the aesthetic movements that mark the end of the European century, taking into account, namely, the impact of these on the genesis of Modernism in Portugal and in its full affirmation.
