Description

Abstract:: Em maio de 1902, Fernando Pessoa visitava pela primeira e única vez Angra do Heroísmo e a ilha Terceira. Assinalando os 120 anos desta viagem, e revisitando o processo que, em 1972, levou à identificação da casa onde, numa rua perto do mar, o jovem Fernando e a família foram acolhidos (a casa da tia Anica e do primo Mário), propomo-nos recuperar documentos que atestam essa visita e analisar o modo como, ao longo do tempo, o sistema cultural açoriano tem vindo a reinscrever esse episódio biográfico (que, afinal, foi também bibliográfico), assim como a ligação familiar de Pessoa à ilha Terceira, na memória cultural do arquipélago. Situamo-nos no campo dos estudos de receção da obra pessoana (nos Açores), procurando compreender em que medida esse reiterado processo de reinscrição mnemónica configurou o retrato de um Pessoa quase “poeta açoriano”.; In May 1902, Fernando Pessoa visited for the first and only time Angra do Heroísmo and the Terceira island. Pointing out the 120 years of said journey, and revisiting the process which, in 1972, led to the identification of the house where, in a street near the sea, the young Fernando Pessoa and his family were welcomed (tia Anica and cousin Mário’s home), we propose to recover documents attesting to this visit and analysing the way how, over time, the cultural system of the Azores has reinscribed this biographic episode (which, after all, was also bibliographic), as well as Pessoa’s family connection to Terceira island, in the cultural memory of the archipelago. We are in the field of studies of the reception of the Pessoan work (in the Azores), trying to understand how this repeated process of mnemonic reinscription has made the portrait of Pessoa almost as a “poet from the Azores”.
