Opis

Vinicius de Moraes, besides being recognized worldwide as the greatest lyricist of Bossa Nova, an internationally renowned musical genre, is one of the greatest poets in Brazilian literature. O Caminho Para a Distância, published in 1933, is his literary debut and was praised by important literary critics, such as Octávio de Faria. In this book, we analyze the essential marks of Viniciana's lyric that can be found throughout the author's extensive poetic output, more specifically the manifestation of the sublime, the figuration of the erotic, the romantic confessionalism and the dialogue with traditional poetic forms - always used in dialectical articulation with modernity.
