Fernando Pessoa claimed to be inhabited by thousands of
philosophies, all of which he intended to develop in his unfinished
project of English-language Philosophical Essays. The resulting
fragments were never published by Pessoa himself and almost the
entirety of them are presented in this edition for the very first
time in history. This volume exhibits Pessoa s musings and wild
insights on the history of philosophy, the failures of
subjectivity, and the structure of the universe to reveal an
unexpectedly scholarly, facetious, and vigorous theoretical mind.
Written under the pre-heteronyms of Charles Robert Anon and
Alexander Search, these texts constitute the foundation for the
fabrication of Pessoa s future heteronyms. They are the testimony
of a writer who referred to himself as a poet animated by
philosophy. Through editor Nuno Ribeiro s careful critical efforts,
a new and fundamental facet of the work of one of modernity s most
seminal geniuses has now been brought to light in a remarkably
reliable and clear fashion.
