As Farpas: Chronica Mensal da Politica, das Letras e dos Costumes (1878-02/05)
"As Farpas: Chronica Mensal da Politica, das Letras e dos Costumes (1878-02/05)" by Ramalho Ortigão and Eça de Queirós is a monthly publication launched in 1871. This satirical chronicle dissects Portuguese society through biting criticism and irony, targeting partisan journalism, religious hypocrisy, women's social roles, and cultural decay. Born from censored intellectual conferences, it pioneered critical journalism in Portugal, offering sharp sociological observations of daily life—from markets to prisons, fishermen to theatre-goers—that
captured a nation's moral and political degradation during the Regeneration period. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
