Summary "A virtude laureada" by Manuel Maria Barbosa du Bocage is a dramatic composition likely written in the early 19th century. This work, presented as a play, explores themes of virtue, knowledge, and the societal issues that arise from ignorance and vice. It is set against a backdrop that interweaves various personifications, such as Science, Indigence, and Libertinism, reflecting on human morals and the state of society. The play unfolds in a single act, featuring characters that embody different aspects of societal virtues and vices. It begins with Science lamenting the plight of those who seek knowledge in a world plagued by ignorance and selfishness. The dialogue transitions into a confrontation with Indigence, who shares its struggles against the backdrop of societal apathy. As the story progresses, the appearance of Libertinism introduces a chaotic element, challenging the virtues the protagonists strive to uphold. Ultimately, the narrative emphasizes the importance of virtue in overcoming the darkness of vice and ignorance, culminating in a depiction of a just society where benevolence and honor prevail, thus sending a powerful moral message to its audience.
