Junto dum seco, fero e estéril monte : uma Canção de Camões

Abstract

Taking as incipt "Along a dry, barren hill and fero", the Song Literaria of V Luís de Camões, in this corpus minimum proposed by Professor Leodegário de Azevedo Filho is the theme of this study and it proposes to make a literary review in the light of Mannerism, in order to observe its main features. Thus, issues such as world s uneasiness, time and life s fugacidade, the pessimism, lack of love are related to poetry. There is a concern to look for influence in the late Gothic Mannerism and how it gives to this song, which they perceive no classical traces or Renaissance in it. It is also necessary that we analyse the geographical references, the constructions and stylistic resources used by the poet, since these are significant for a good understanding of the song, as well as for possible questioning about the work of Camões be considered by some classical authors
