Viagem ao Parnaso by Frei Ugedio
"Viagem ao Parnaso" by Frei Ugedio is a poetic work written in the late 19th century. The book serves as a satirical commentary on contemporary poetry and the literary scene, reflecting the author's views on the transition from Romanticism to Realism. It explores themes of artistic integrity and the evolution of literary styles, often critiquing the prevailing norms and conventions of the time. The narrative follows a poet's encounter with a modern
muse who leads him through a surreal and chaotic Parnaso, a mythical representation of the realm of poets. As they traverse various absurd and satirical landscapes, the poet is exposed to a range of characters and scenes that exemplify the clash between traditional and modern poetic forms. Throughout this journey, Frei Ugedio's witty verses challenge established ideas about poetry, emphasizing the importance of adapting to contemporary realities while navigating a world filled with contradiction and folly. The work ultimately weaves together humor and critique, making a statement about the evolving nature of artistic expression. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
