The book examines the evolution of Portuguese literary history, arguing for a coherent philosophy of literary history that considers the influence of societal, cultural, and historical contexts on literary production. This work navigates through various literary movements and figures, emphasizing the importance of understanding literature as a reflection of national identity and consciousness. In this text, Quental critiques previous literary theories, particularly those of Theophilo Braga, who advocated for an ethnological perspective that he argues is overly simplistic and reductionist. Instead, Quental proposes a more complex and integrated view that acknowledges the interplay between individual genius, societal conditions, and historical moments. He discusses the significance of Camões and other literary figures, placing their works within a broader historical context that reveals the psychological and cultural undercurrents of Portuguese society. By doing so, Quental aims to illuminate the intrinsic connection between literature and the evolution of national identity, suggesting that the literary canon is not merely a collection of individual works but a tapestry that embodies the spirit and values of a nation.
