Lisbon, Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian, 2017.. Large 8°, publisher's buckram with dust jacket. As new. frontispiece plate, (5 ll.), 875, (1) pp., illustrations in text. One of 250 copies. *** The Fenix renascida is a classic anthology of Portuguese "Gongorist" poetry. First published in five volumes between 1716 and 1728, a second edition, also in five volumes, appeared in 1746, with more poems than the first, and is preferred for that reason. The present critical edition, LIMITED TO 250 COPIES, prepared by Ivo Castro, Enrique Rodrigues-Moura and Anabela Leal de Barros, is annotated and based on the 1746 edition, whose five title pages are reproduced in facsimile. Pages [733]-875 Contain an "Estudo: A Fénix Renascida e as suas edições". This study is well annotated, with a number of tables, a glossary, as well as indexes of titles and first lines. A Fénix Renascida is important for Brazilian literature, because it contains works by Bernardo Vieira Ravasco (b. Bahia, 1619), the brother of P. Antonio Vieira, considered a great poet by his contemporaries. The two poems included in this anthology are apparently the only works of his to have been printed: one is a sonnet in Spanish entitled "A hum papagayo de Palacio, que fallava muyto"; the other, in Portuguese, is entitled "A Senhora D. Isabel Princeza de Portugal havendo morto em Salvaterra hum javali com hum tiro". Among the Portuguese authors represented are Antonio Barbosa Bacelar, Jeronimo Baía (or Vahia), Soror Violante do Ceo, Antonio Alvares da Cunha and Jacinto Freire de Andrade. The popularity of the work in its time can perhaps be judged from the fact that the satirist Nicolau Tolentino (1741-1811) mentions wealthy nuns who memorized whole volumes of the Fenix (see Bell, Portuguese Literature p. 276). *** See, regarding the early editions: Borba de Moraes (1983) II, 810-1: "sought after and rare"; Período colonial pp. 367-70. Alden & Landis 746/188. Innocêncio II, 267: without collation for the second edition; "sem duvida preferivel a primeira." Barbosa Machado I, 537-9: reprints the sonnet by Vieira Ravasco that appears in vol. III. Garcia Peres pp. 215-6. Not in Palha. Not in Bosch. Not in Rodrigues. Avila-Perez 2700: also citing the first edition. Azevedo-Samodães 1176 (second edition). Monteverde, cites only the first edition (2274).
