He has been one of the most important figures in the Portuguese cultural life during the second half of the 20th century and beginning of the current century. His multifaceted personality and the several records of his writing, from academic to journalistic, as well as an insatiable curiosity and an unusual eruditeness, made him a unique figure in the Portuguese cultural life. By the occasion of the beginning of the publication of his Obras Escolhidas (Selected Works) by the INCM, the CCB promotes a day dedicated to the evocation of his work and his presence in the Portuguese literature.
