Carlos de Oliveira


Carlos de Oliveira[Portugal] 1921–1981
The son of Portuguese emigrants to Brazil,
Carlos de Oliveira was born in Belém do
Pará in 1921. Two years later the family
returned to Portugal, settling in a rural
district northwest of Coimbra. It was in
Coimbra that the writer went to high
school and then on to university,
graduating in History and Philosophy
with a thesis titled Contribution to a
Neo-Realist Aesthetics. That was in 1947,
the fifteenth year of the by then firmly
entrenched Salazar dictatorship.
