Summary: "Manifesto anti-Dantas e por extenso" by José de Almada Negreiros is a provocative literary manifesto written in the early 20th century. This work can be categorized as a critical essay that serves as a denunciation of traditional literary values and highlights the author's Futurist ideology. It primarily targets the Portuguese literary establishment, which Almada-Negreiros perceives as stagnant and overly reverent to past masters, symbolized by the figure of Dantas, presumably referring to Júlio Dantas, whose literary contributions Almada-Negreiros dismisses as lacking originality and vitality. In the manifesto, Almada-Negreiros expresses a fierce rebellion against the prevailing literary norms, advocating for a new, daring, and dynamic approach to literature that aligns with the modernist spirit of the early 20th century. He presents a vivid critique of Dantas and his contemporaries, depicting them as symbols of complacency and mediocrity in the artistic landscape. Through a blend of acerbic humor and sharp satire, the author calls for a radical transformation in literature that reflects the fast-paced, industrialized world of his time. His passionate rhetoric not only attacks Dantas but also serves to invigorate and embolden new generations of writers to pursue authenticity and innovation, rejecting the stale conventions of the past.
