Description

Such emphasis on the appearance of Adamastor is intended to contrast with the preceding scenery, which was expressed as: "seas of the South" (" mares do Sul"): "(...) / the winds blowing favourably / when one night, being careless/ watching in the cutting bow, / (...)" ( "(...) / prosperamente os ventos assoprando, / quando hua noite, estando descuidados / na cortadora proa vigiando, / (...)"). The final marine eclogue conforms to a pattern that is common to many of Camões' lyrical compositions: falling in love, forced separation, grieving over the frustrated dream. E. Kegel-Brinkgreve, The Echoing Woods: Bucolic and Pastoral from Theocritus to Wordsworth (Amsterdam: J. C. Gieben, 1990); Lo que encontramos en todos estos ejemplos, como en el caso de Garcilaso de la Vega, es una representación idílica de un lugar verde, mágico, con música de la naturaleza, donde la tranquilidad es absoluta y donde el mundo se vuelve cada vez más bello. Digamos que el Locus amoenus es una idealización de un lugar, así como la Donna angelicata es una idealización de una mujer. La belleza, en ambos casos, está compuesta por una serie de elementos claves que, como hemos visto se hacen constantes y continuos a lo largo de todos los ejemplos: Fray Luis halaba un lugar retirado del mundanal ruido, alejado de la urbe, de las molestias de este lugar; José de Zorilla describe un lugar idealizado, perfecto para la unión de los amantes; y Machado, en las Soledades, hace lo propio: el aire, las flores, las hojas, el color del viento y la música de las hojas sinestésicamente hablando decoran y coronan un lugar absolutamente mágico [1]. Un último apunte: si bien es verdad que a lo largo de la historia este tópico ha sido utilizado de forma positiva, para representar lugares idílicos y con las características que ya hemos anunciado y ejemplificado, no menos cierto es que hay autores que le han dado una connotación negativa. Tal es el caso de Horacio Quiroga en su texto «El infierno artificial» [2]: I offer flexible therapy sessions for adults, children and teens adapted to fit your needs.

The heroes of the epic are the Lusiads ( Lusíadas), the sons of Lusus—in other words, the Portuguese. The initial strophes of Jupiter's speech in the Concílio dos Deuses Olímpicos (Council of the Olympian Gods), which open the narrative part, highlight the laudatory orientation of the author. The narration concludes with an epilogue, starting in stanza 145 of canto X. The most important part of Os Lusíadas, the arrival in India, was placed at the point in the poem that divides the work according to the golden section at the beginning of Canto VII. The locus amoenus: the strophes that come after strophe 52 of Canto IX, and some of the main parts that appear from strophe 68 to 95 describe the scenery where the love encountered between the sailors and the Nymphs take place. The poet also talks about the fauna that live there and of fruits produced instantly. It is portrayed as a paradise.

The Middle Ages merged the classical locus amoenus with biblical imagery, as from the Song of Songs. [7] On several occasions the poet assumes a tone of lamentation, as at the end of Canto I, in parts of the speech of the Old Man of the Restelo, the end of Canto V, the beginning and end of Canto VII, and the final strophes of the poem. Many times, da Gama bursts into oration at challenging moments: in Mombasa (Canto II), on the appearance of Adamastor, and in the middle of the terror of the storm. The poet's invocations to the Tágides and nymphs of Mondego (Cantos I and VII) and to Calliope (beginning of Cantos III and X), in typological terms, are also orations. Each one of these types of speech shows stylistic peculiarities. Locus amoenus ( Latin for "pleasant place") is a literary topos involving an idealized place of safety or comfort. A locus amoenus is usually a beautiful, shady lawn or open woodland, or a group of idyllic islands, sometimes with connotations of Eden or Elysium.

Episodes that stand out include Egas Moniz and the Battle of Ourique during Dom Afonso Henriques' reign, formosíssima Maria (the beautiful Maria, in 16th century Portuguese) in the Battle of Salado, and Inês de Castro during Dom Afonso IV's reign. In Ovid's Metamorphoses, the function of the locus amoenus is inverted, to form the "locus terribilis". Instead of offering a respite from dangers, it is itself usually the scene of violent encounters. [6] Medieval [ edit ] Examples of dynamic descriptions include the "battle" of the Island of Mozambique, the battles of Ourique and Aljubarrota, and the storm. Camões is a master in these descriptions, marked by the verbs of movement, the abundance of visual and acoustic sensations, and expressive alliterations. There are also many lyrical moments. Those texts are normally narrative-descriptive. This is the case with the initial part of the episode of the Sad Inês, the final part of the episode of the Adamastor, and the encounter on the Island of Love (Canto IX). All these cases resemble eclogues. The Locus Amoenus in Old English: Guthlac A and its cultural context". librarysearch.kcl.ac.uk. Archived from the original on 9 July 2020 .
