<mods:abstract lang="eng">In 2015, Pessoa Plural published a set of poems by Maria Lúcia Dal Farra entitled De Florbela para Pessoa, com amor [From Florbela to Pessoa, with love] in which Florbela Espanca, the Portuguese poet, short story writer, and translator, addresses Fernando Pessoa from beyond the grave, suspecting him to be the elusive soul-mate she has been seeking throughout her life. Maria Lúcia structures her work around quotes from both authors, revisiting the themes that nurture most poetry―love, life, pain, and death―and provides a poignant portrayal of two of the most prominent voices of early 20th Portuguese literature. This translation (of her revised 2017 version) and the accompanying commentaries aim to invite reflection on the seemingly unlikely hypothesis that, despite their contrasting literary styles and lifestyles, their thematic preoccupations and personal philosophies often converge. Soul-mates? Perhaps not, but they are much closer kin than we might have imagined.</mods:abstract>
<mods:abstract lang="por">Em 2015, Pessoa Plural publicou uma série de poemas de Maria Lúcia Dal Farra intitulados De Florbela para Pessoa, com amor, através dos quais a poeta, contista e tradutora Florbela Espanca, suspeitando que Fernando Pessoa poderia ser a elusiva alma gêmea que sempre procurava, escreve-lhe do Além. Maria Lúcia estrutura os poemas na base de citações pessoanas e florbelianas, revisitando alguns dos temas que mais nutrem a literatura – amor, vida, sofrimento e morte – oferecendo-nos um retrato pungente de duas das vozes mais sonantes da literatura portuguesa vintecentista. A intenção da tradução (da versão revista de 2017) e dos comentários é de suscitar uma reflexão sobre a hipótese aparentemente improvável de que, não obstante os seus estilos literários e de vida divergentes, as suas respectivas preocupações temáticas e filosofias pessoais não raras vezes convergem. Almas gêmeas? Quiçá não, embora parentes muito mais próximos do que poderíamos ter imaginado.</mods:abstract>
