About This Book

The author reconstructs the obscure biography and literary corpus of a poet known by the sobriquet Chiado, assembling rare writings, archival records, and anecdotes to clarify his life and production. The study traces family-name evidence and examines popular traditions that tie the poet to the naming of a well-known street, while portraying him as a bohemian, lively versifier and popular performer whose satirical and farcical pieces drew public applause and attention from contemporaries. Critical notes, newly found documents, and editorial efforts are presented to revive and contextualize the poet's work.
