"Theóphilo Braga e a lenda do Crisfal" by Delfim de Brito Guimarães is a critical analysis written in the early 20th century. The work revolves around the literary figure of Bernardim Ribeiro, specifically addressing the myths and misunderstandings surrounding the pseudonymous poet Crisfal and clarifying Ribeiro's contributions to Portuguese literature. The text sets the stage for a scholarly exploration of the historical literary dispute and the author's aim to correct past misconceptions. The opening of the book introduces a spirited discourse on the identity of the poet Crisfal, arguing that this figure is merely a fictional construct rather than a distinct historical person, as previously believed. It discusses the author's motivation to challenge established literary narratives and the tensions with contemporary literary scholars, particularly Theóphilo Braga, who had asserted the existence of Crisfal as an authentic figure. The text showcases Guimarães' resolve to reclaim the legacy of Bernardim Ribeiro, promoting an understanding of how legends can overshadow factual literary history and emphasizing the need for rigorous historical inquiry in literary studies.
