Omschrijving

The Lusiad, also known as The Discovery of India, is an epic poem written by Luis de Camoens. The poem is considered one of the greatest works of Portuguese literature and is a tribute to the Portuguese exploration of the world during the Age of Discovery. The poem tells the story of Vasco da Gama's voyage to India in 1497-1499, which was a significant moment in history as it opened up a new trade route to the East. The poem is divided into ten cantos, each of which describes a different aspect of the voyage, from the departure from Lisbon to the arrival in India. The Lusiad is written in a grand style, with a focus on heroic deeds and the glory of the Portuguese nation. The poem is also infused with religious and mythological elements, with references to classical mythology and Christian themes. Overall, The Lusiad is a monumental work of literature that celebrates the spirit of exploration and adventure, while also reflecting the cultural and historical context of its time. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Portuguese history, epic poetry, or the Age of Discovery.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
