Summary: "Poesias Completas" by Machado de Assis is a comprehensive collection of poetry written in the late 19th century. This anthology showcases the evolution of Assis's poetic voice, touching upon themes of love, loss, nature, and existential reflection. It combines deeply personal sentiments with broader societal reflections, often employing rich imagery and lyrical grace. The opening of this collection introduces the reader to the author's thoughts on the purpose and context of his poetic works. Assis reflects on the compilation of previously scattered verses, expressing a sense of nostalgia for both the past and the artistic journey that shaped his creations. He offers introspective pieces like "Musa Consolatrix," which contemplates the role of the muses and the comfort they provide in times of sorrow, and "Quinze Annos," which portrays the loss of innocence and hope in youth. Through these early verses, Assis establishes a poignant mood, inviting contemplation of the fleeting nature of beauty and existence. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
