1524-1580
Luis de Camoens perfectly captured the amazing achievements of Portugal in the 15th and 16th centuries in his Renaissance sea epic of the Lusiads.
In the year of the 600th anniversary of the Anglo-Portuguese Alliance and the year following the first publication of the epic, Dr Denis Brass , Senior Lecturer in Portuguese and Spanish at the University of Bristol, discusses the life of Camoens and the relationship of the poetry to the background. Excerpts from the Lusiads and from the lyric poetry will be read in Portuguese by CARLOS ALVES , and in translation.
Producer MARGARET ETALL followed by an interlude
