Augusto de Carvalho Rodrigues dos Anjos (April 20, 1884 – November 12, 1914) was a Brazilian poet and professor. His poems speak mostly of sickness and death, and are considered the forerunners of Modernism in Brazil. He is the patron of the first chair of the Paraiban Academy of Letters. ==Biography== Augusto do Anjos was born in 1884, in an ''engenho'' named Pau d'Arco, at the city of Cruz do Espírito Santo, in the Brazilian state of Paraíba. (Nowadays, the ''engenho'' is located in Sapé, also in Paraíba.) He was initially homeschooled by his father, until he was admitted at the Lyceu Paraibano, where he would become a teacher in 1908. Augusto wrote poems since he was 7 years old. In 1903 he was admitted at Law course at the Faculdade de Direito do Recife, graduating in 1907. In 1910 he married Ester Fialho. Starting a career as a magistrate, he moved to Rio de Janeiro, where he served as teacher for many educational institutions and started to publish his poems in periodicals and newspapers. In 1912 he published his first and only poetry book, ''Eu'' (in (英語:Me)), that received mixed reviews by the time it was published. (Órris Soares, lifelong friend of Augusto dos Anjos, would republish ''Eu'' in 1919, adding then-unpublished poems to it and re-releasing it under the title ''Eu e Outras Poesias'', and since then the book has received better reviews.) As he was serving as a headmaster at a school in the city of Leopoldina, Minas Gerais, he died on November 12, 1914, a victim of pneumonia. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Augusto dos Anjos」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
