"Viagens na Minha Terra" by Almeida Garrett is a literary travelogue written in the mid-19th century. Blending fictional narrative with philosophical reflections, the work chronicles the author's journey through Portugal, capturing the beauty of the landscape, the character of its people, and offering insightful commentary on societal issues. The main character, likely to represent Garrett himself, embarks on a quest for self-discovery and deeper understanding of his homeland. At the start of the narrative, the author reveals his motivation for wandering beyond the confines of his room, setting out to explore Santarém and its surroundings. The journey begins with observations of Lisbon's landscapes, coupled with reflections on the nature of life and the influences of society. The opening chapters introduce a mix of characters, including fellow travelers and local figures, weaving humorous and philosophical dialogues about strength, culture, and the struggles of everyday life, ultimately highlighting the author's desire to immortalize his experiences and thoughts through writing.
