Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935) - a poet who lived most his life in Lisbon, Portugal, and who died in obscurity there - has in recent years gained international recognition as one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century. Now Richard Zenith has collected in a single volume all the major poetry of "one of the most extraordinary poetic talents the century has produced" (Microsoft Network's Reading Forum). Fernando Pessoa was as much a creator of personas as he was of poetry, prose, and criticism. He wrote under numerous "heteronyms," literary alter egos with fully fleshed identities and writing styles, who supported and criticized each other's work in the margins of his drafts and in the literary journals of the time. From spare minimalism to a revolutionary exuberance that recalls Leaves of Grass, Pessoa's oeuvre was radically new and anticipated contemporary literary concerns to an unnerving degree. The first comprehensive edition of Pessoa's poetry in the English language, Fernando Pessoa & Co. is a work of extraordinary depth and poetic precision. "Zenith's selection of Pessoa is a beautiful one-volume course in the soul of the twentieth century." -- Booklist

In this wide-ranging book, Mariana Gray de Castro argues that William Shakespeare was the single most important literary influence at the heart of Fernando Pessoa’s creativity, the invention of the heteronyms. Focusing on Pessoa’s views on Shakespeare’s genius, his apparent invisibility as an author, his possible madness and his ambiguous sexuality, she draws upon Pessoa’s published and unpublished writings on Shakespeare, as well as the marginalia in his Shakespearean books, in order to show how and why Shakespeare is the pervasive underlying presence in the heteronymic universe. In doing so, Castro proposes a new “Shakespearean” interpretation of Pessoa’s heteronyms. “Like a good literary sleuth, Mariana Gray de Castro has searched for – and discovered – why Fernando Pessoa was so interested in the Shakespeare authorship controversy, in Shakespeare’s genius and possible madness, and in his presumed ‘sexual inversion’, and she shows us what all of this had to do with the creation of the heteronyms. Pessoa, who loved detective stories and wrote a number of his own, would have been pleased.” RICHARD ZENITH

L’œuvre de Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935), en grande partie posthume, est considérée aujourd’hui comme l’une des plus importantes du XXe siècle, la découverte de sa poésie et du Livre de l’Intranquillité ayant été une révélation dans le monde entier. Le projet complexe de Pessoa consiste, par l’écriture, à « tout sentir de toutes les manières », ce qui l’a conduit à éclater son «moi» en plusieurs écrivains fictifs, les «hétéronymes», dotés chacun d’un nom (Alberto Caeiro, Álvaro de Campos, Ricardo Reis, Fernando Pessoa lui-même, Bernardo Soares, etc.), d’un style propre et d’une vision du monde singulière. La présente anthologie, très concise, est une introduction à cette œuvre multiforme et inclassable. Elle permet de découvrir ce précurseur génial de notre modernité, en appréhendant l’essentiel de son « dispositif hétéro - nymique», pour en saisir, dans une présentation bilingue, la force et la beauté, la variété et l’unité.

Writing a biography about Pessoa is a seemingly impossible task. The great Portuguese poet did not have just one life, but his existence virtually exploded in over a hundred different personalities. Only by placing oneself close to Pessoa, only by becoming almost one with him, is it possible to trace the life of this poet who was himself a multitude. José Paulo Cavalcanti has done such a thing, sewing together a path that runs through Pessoa's multiple voices and personalities, seamlessly moving in and out of the poet's work, daily habits and interactions. Following the great success of the Brazilian edition, "Pessoa. A quasi Memoir" is the first English translation of the book, and it provides new insights on the complex nature of the Portuguese poet.
