Álvaro de Campos, a remarkable heteronym crafted by the renowned modernist writer Fernando Pessoa, holds a significant place in literary history. Pessoa's account reveals that Campos hailed from Tavira (Algarve) in 1890 and pursued studies in mechanical engineering in Glasgow. However, he was unable to complete his degree. During his time, Campos garnered both admiration and criticism for his vibrant poetry, deeply influenced by Walt Whitman, characterized by a free verse style. He celebrated the advancements of technology and expressed his controversial opinions through manifestos, interviews, and essays. Margaret Jull Costa and Patricio Ferraris, in their meticulous translations, present the complete poems of Campos, offering a comprehensive edition based on the Portuguese Tinta-da-china edition. This edition is enriched with an enlightening introduction by Jerónimo Pizarro and Antonio Cardiello, providing valuable insights into Campos's life and work. Additionally, facsimiles of original manuscripts and a generous selection of Camposs prose texts are included, further enhancing the reader's appreciation of this influential writer.
