Abstract

This article focuses on the poetry composed by Fernando Correia Pina and J. J. Sobral/António Galrinho, two contemporary portuguese poets whose writings, contradicting the conservative assumption that considers licentious poetry a minor genre, present formal and aesthetical qualities and offer a critical approach to cultural values, thus constituting a valuable object of analysis.
