About the author
Luís de Camões
610 books334 followersLuís Vaz de Camões (Portuguese pronunciation: [luˈiʃ vaʃ dɨ kaˈmõȷ̃ʃ]; sometimes rendered in English as Camoens; c. 1524 – June 10, 1580) is considered Portugal's, and the Portuguese language's, greatest poet. His mastery of verse has been compared to that of Shakespeare, Vondel, Homer, Virgil, and Dante. He wrote a considerable amount of lyrical poetry (in Portuguese and in Spanish) and drama but is best remembered for his epic work Os Lusíadas (The Lusiads). His recollection of poetry The Parnasum of Luís de Camões was lost in his lifetime.

Luís Vaz de Camões was born in 1524, the exact location not known, but he believed that it was either in Coimbra or in Lisbon.
Son of Galicians, he attended the University of Coimbra. He joined the Portuguese Crown Army, embarking as a soldier, in 1547, to Africa where he participated in the war against the Celts. He ended up suffering an attack and losing his right eye in combat.
In 1552, when he returned to Portugal, he arrested for assaulting a court official and, after that, exiled from the country. In exile, the author produced one of his most famous poems "Os Lusíadas", first published in 1572.
Creator of the classical Portuguese language and a recognized poet of the Portuguese Renaissance, he wrote poetry inspired by popular songs that resemble medieval pieces. His lyrical work is formed by sonnets and rounds, without an excess of deception and with geometric excellence.
In his poems, Luís Vaz de Camões arouses an appreciation for the loving and human dramas of society. His works are composed of epic and lyrical poetry, plays and sonnets, his masterpiece.
The Portuguese poet died in 1580, in Lisbon, in a situation of extreme poverty. To date, thousands of copies of his books have translated into several languages, including Spanish, English, French, Italian and German.
His verses continue to inspire poets, musicians and filmmakers and are present in several films and music.
