"While in prison, he composed the first two cantos of the epic poem La Henriade, the first version of which was called La Ligue (1723). The book was a critique of the religious extremism embodied in the character of Henry IV (1553-1610)." 

"The story presented in the poem takes place between 1588 and 1594, beginning with the Siege of Paris led by Henry III and his brother-in-law, the Protestant Henry Bourbon, King of Navarre. The former was born in 1551, the son of Henry II and Catherine di Medici, and came to rule France in 1574. Paris was one of the strongholds of the Catholic or Holy League, formed in opposition to the Protestant Union."

"It wasn't possible to publish it in France, as the author had many opponents in his home country, such as the nobleman Guy-Auguste de Rohan, Count of Chabot."

In book form, the text would only be published in Portugal in 1914. 

It was in 1892, at the Café Java, that the movement was born with avant-garde intentions: art as an expression of irony and humorous political criticism.

"I wrote this novella many years ago and had it published as a pamphlet in the Correio da Manhã in Rio. Since then I've never reread it, except now when, encouraged by some friends, I decided to publish it as a volume.

"It's a book that, set entirely in the interior of Ceará, doesn't say a word about drought! The landscapes it describes are always the green countryside, the running streams, the tablelands in bloom. Nothing of the skeletal and starving Ceará, the Ceará of the droughts and the migrants."

"And the most curious thing of all is that this Ceará of Antônio Sales not only exists, but exists more constantly and truly than the other, dramatic Ceará of the times of the scourge. Because we mustn't forget that drought is a sporadic incidence, fortunately spaced out over years or decades. And there have been blessed periods of more than ten years without drought."

Many of the volumes in the Djacir Menezes Collection, published between the 19th and 20th centuries, show marbled paper with abstract veins and intense colors.

Barão de Studart's historiographical output was fruitful and relevant to studies of Ceará society and its political, cultural, economic and geographical details, such as the following works: Notas sobre a Linguagem e os Costumes do Ceará [1892], Para a História do Jornalismo Cearense [1924], Geografia do Ceará [1924], Dicionário Bibliográfico Cearense [in three volumes, from 1910] and Usos e Superstições Cearenses [1910].

Made up of language resources that refer to actions marked by the notion and representation of time, by the omnipresent narrator, by the opening of themes to be debated... 

This is a collection of short texts, in the form of a novella, written between 1590 and 1612. However, they were only published in 1613, like this edition that is added to the Djacir Menezes Collection.
