He graduated from the Jesuit College and then studied law at the University of Coimbra. After completing his doctorate, dissatisfied with life in the metropolis, he returned to Bahia. He fell in love with Maria dos Povos, was deposed for not adhering to ecclesiastical orders, sent to Angola, and transferred again, this time to Pernambuco, where he died. Both in Brazil and Portugal, his satirical streak, which earned him the nickname \"Mouth of Hell,\" incited the ire of members of the clergy and other explorers of the colony. This book compiles 112 of the author's poems, selected and prefaced by André Seffrin. A collection of poems well-representative of colonial Brazil, a chronicle of customs woven with fury, love, compassion, pain, and euphoria. It's worth checking out. \"The dualism that results from the discomfort of social criticism, of those who refuse to accept the world's disarray, and a lyrical vein of spiritual redemption beyond individual maladjustments is perhaps what shapes Gregório de Matos's most well-known face.\" André Seffrin, excerpt from the preface","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47174848086268,"sku":"9788577993659","price":39.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/0b29dd05ee03a1ba4607de4792e912e2_2fe8b611-2ddc-4e58-b93c-fbb9cb22dea9.jpg?v=1778321377"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/collections\/gregorio-de-matos.oembed","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
