The figure of King Sebastian in Fernando Pessoa

Description

Abstract:
Article by William H. Roberts, published in Hispanic Review XXXIV (1966), and inscribed to Alexandrino Severino. Roberts discusses how Fernando Pessoa put the Sebastianist myth to use in his own poetic work, particularly in Mensagem, ultimately finding that although these poems are not Pessoa's best work they nevertheless merit attention. Jennings seems to have agreed with or to have been persuaded by this reception of Pessoa's mystical poetry in Mensagem (see The Poet with Many Faces).
