Equating Vitorino Nemesio to "Azoreanity," Universality,
Iridescence, Confluence, and Eroticism, draws inspiration from the
content of the essays herein included and will not surprise anyone
familiar with Nemesio's non-posthumous works, with the possible
exception of the very last of the lexemes, "eroticism." Nemesio's
oeuvre, starting with the collections of short stories Paco do
Milhafre (1924) and Misterio do Paco do Milhafre (1949), and
extending to the poetical collections La Voyelle Promise (1935) and
Festa Redonda (1950), to the novel Mau Tempo no Canal (1944) and
the travelogue Corsario das Ilhas (1956), encompasses a range of
subjects profoundly rooted in the Azorean archipelago. At the same
time--and here, bbesides Mau Tempo no Canal, we must emphasize the
poems of Nem Toda a Noite a Vida (1952) and O Verbo e a Morte
(1959)--the thematic and formal scope of Nemesio's oeuvre does in
no way distance itself from the totality (and, to the extent that
the word is valid, centrality) of Portugese culture and, as well,
from the western Great Tradition of which it is an inextricable
part.
