Synopsis "Poemas (in Spanish)"

Acechado por la locura, alcohólico, marcado por la temprana muerte de su padre, Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935) escribió con distintos nombres para escapar, quizá, de su propia voluntad. "No soy nada, nunca seré nada", dijo de sí mismo, descreído del valor de su obra. Por el hecho de haber sido escritos, de ser tan nítidos como para conmovernos de distintas maneras en cada lectura -y de conmovernos integralmente-, los poemas de Pessoa demuestran que no estamos condenados a ser siempre los mismos; tampoco él fue siempre el mismo, sino una verdadera asamblea de poetas, cada uno con una obra completa que no terminará de leerse nunca. Selección, traducción y prólogo de Marcelo Cohén

Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935) was a Portuguese poet, writer, and philosopher, considered one of the most prominent literary figures of the 20th century. Born in Lisbon, he developed a prolific and complex literary work, characterized by the creation of heteronyms, literary personalities with their own biographies and styles. In addition to his literary production, he worked as a translator and editor, and was a profound connoisseur of philosophy and esotericism.

Among his most notable works are "The Book of Disquiet" (1982), a compilation of fragments that explore introspection and melancholy; "Message" (1934), a poetic work that celebrates the history and identity of Portugal; and "The Anarchist Banker" (1922), a philosophical essay that addresses the contradiction between anarchism and capitalism. These works have been fundamental in Portuguese and world literature, reflecting the depth and complexity of Pessoa's thought.
