CAMOES, LUIS DE

Additional reading Biographies. A monumental biography is Friedrich Wilhelm Storck, Luis de Camoens Leben (1890). The most prudent, shorter biography (in English), though outdated, remains Aubrey F.G. Bell, Luis de Cames (1923); and the best debunking of all the biographical myths is Antnio Salgado, Jr.'s, introduction to his edition of the Obra Completa (1963). Critical studies. The numerous articles by Carolina Michaelis de Vasconcellos are still scattered in learned reviews from the 1880s to the 1920s and, with some of her other works, remain the starting point of any Camonian scholarship. Other studies include: Theophilo Braga, Cames: poca e Vida (1907) and Cames, a Obra Lrica e pica (1911); F. Rebelo Gonalves, Dissertaes Camonianas (1937); Hernani A. Cidade, Lus de Cames, 2nd ed., 3 vol. (195256); Cecil M. Bowra, From Virgil to Milton (1945); Jorge de Sena, A Poesia de Cames (1951), Uma Cano de Cames (1966), Os Sonetos de Cames (1969), and A Estrutura de Os Lusadas (1970); Antnio J. Saraiva, Lus de Cames (1959); A. Bartlett Giamatti, The Earthly Paradise and the Renaissance Epic (1966); and Roger Bismut, La Lyrique de Cames (1971). Major Works: Poetry. Os Lusadas (1572; The Lusiads, trans. by Sir Richard Fanshawe, 1655); Rhythmas de Lus de Cames (1595; Camoens: The Lyricks, trans. by Richard Burton, 2 vol., 1884). Plays.
