Produced by Biblioteca Nacional Digital (http://bnd.bn.pt), Nuno Lopes (Projecto Enclave) and edited by Rita Farinha "Opúsculos por Alexandre Herculano - Tomo 09" by Alexandre Herculano is a collection of literary essays written in the early 20th century. This volume focuses on Herculano's perspectives on Portuguese literature and its historical context, reflecting a period of literary transition identified with the Romantic movement. The essays explore the complexities of poetic expression, the impact of classical forms, and the need for modern literary innovation in Portugal. At the start of this collection, the author delves into the state of Portuguese literature during a time of transformation, questioning its direction and the quality of its poetic output. He acknowledges the previous decay in literary standards and emphasizes the necessity of aligning literature with contemporary social aspirations. Through a rigorous examination of literary traditions and critiques of prevailing poetic conventions, Herculano argues for a renaissance in the Portuguese literary scene that harmonizes classical influences with new ideals, aiming to inspire a renewed national identity through literary expression.
