"O Atheneu (chronica de saudades)" by Raul Pompéia is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around the experiences and reflections of a young boy, Sérgio, as he faces the transition from the comforts of home to the challenges of life at a boarding school, the prestigious Atheneu. Themes of nostalgia, alienation, and the harsh realities of education and social expectations are explored through Sérgio's eyes as he encounters various characters and situations that shape his formative years. The opening of the novel introduces us to Sérgio's world as he prepares to leave his family and enter the Atheneu. He grapples with conflicting emotions, recalling his idyllic childhood while confronting the daunting change ahead. The description of the school, its influential director Aristarcho Argollo de Ramos, and the contrasting impressions of a festive, yet intimidating atmosphere establish the backdrop for Sérgio’s journey. Through his initial visits and the bustling environment of Atheneu, we witness his anxiety and anticipation, foreshadowing the complex dynamics of friendships and rivalries that he will encounter in this new setting. As he enters this unfamiliar realm, the narrative eloquently captures the innocence and intricacies of childhood amidst the challenges of growing up.
