ALMEIDA (António Ramos de). EÇA. Porto. 1945. - ALMEIDA (António Ramos de) EÇA . Porto: Livraria Latina Editora, 1945. 402, [2] pp.; 195 mm. First edition. Eça is the most comprehensive monographic study by António Ramos de Almeida (Olinda, Pernambuco, 1912 - Porto, 1961), the main theorist of Portuguese neo-realism, whose essay *Art and Life* (1941) had defined the ideological foundations of the movement. The volume analyzes the work of Eça de Queirós from the perspective of historical materialism, situating the nineteenth-century novelist as a precursor of literature of social intervention and inscribing him in the lineage of European critical realism. The work constitutes one of the fundamental documents of neo-realist literary criticism in Portugal. Unusual. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
