ORPHEU, ORPHEU: Quarterly Journal of Literature/Directors Fernando Pessôa and Mario de Sá-Carneiro.- Year I, No. 1 and No. 2 (January, February and March to April, May and June 1915).-Lisbon: António Ferro, 1915.-2 vols.: il.; 266 and 250 mm.-E. Two unique figures published at the time, from an avant-garde literary magazine that, giving its name to a generation of poets and artists, identified itself with the modernist movement itself. The publication of the third number would be cancelled due to financial difficulties, having seen the daylight only in 1984, with direction and compilation of Arnaldo Saraiva. From the collaboration, besides the directors, we highlight Almada Negreiros, Alfredo Pedro guisado, Armando Cortes Rodrigues, Alvaro de Campos, Raúl Leal, Ângelo de Lima, Santa-Rita painter (Guilherme Augusto Cau da Costa), etc. The colation of the two numbers, with pagination followed, is as follows: # 1-[4], 83, [1 Br.] P.; No. 2-[4], p. [85] to 164. Brochure covers with slight restorings in the first number, no Badanas, sheared to the format of the notebooks. Whole white and black shagreen binding, replaying in the plans, the motifs of the respective covers (the first number of larger dimensions, presented slight photodegradation of the original white pigment in the upper margin).
