Summary: "Carta de Elmano da Cunha em resposta a outra Bom-senso e Bom-gosto, dirigida…" by Elmano da Cunha is a critical letter written in the mid-19th century. The book serves as a polemical response to Anthero do Quental, addressing themes of literary morality and societal values in the context of Portuguese literature. It provides insight into the ideological struggles of its time regarding independence of thought and artistic integrity. In this letter, Elmano da Cunha takes a stand against what he perceives as the decline of moral responsibility and originality in literary circles, particularly emphasizing the role of the University of Coimbra. He critiques various contemporaries, accusing them of pandering to societal pressures and commercial interests at the expense of true artistic expression. Through a passionate and sometimes satirical discourse, the author articulates his belief in the importance of individual moral responsibility in literature, urging writers to transcend the superficiality that he associates with academic and societal expectations. The letter culminates in a defense of free thought and the pursuit of genuine artistic integrity, juxtaposed against the backdrop of a rapidly evolving cultural landscape.
