Editorial Almuzara Los Lusiadas poesías prosas
La obra de Luís Vaz de Camões es complicada en origen y no ha gozado de ediciones que se ajusten a su consideración del gran clásico de la letras portuguesas. La BLU ofrece ahora una obra selecta y en edición bilingüe que puede considerarse el intento más ambicioso e integral para ofrecer la obra del clásico portugués. Se incluyen en este tomo la mejor versión hasta ahora realizada en español de su gran y universal poema épico Los Lusíadas; una antología de su poesía lírica, con todas las complejidades de su autoría y fijación textual definitiva; la selección de una de sus pocas obras de teatro, el Auto de Filodemo; y la selección de tres de sus cinco cartas literarias conocidas. Todo ellos acompañado de la excelente introducción de Helder Macedo, y el aparato crítico acostumbrado en los libros de la BLU (prólogos, anotaciones, bibliografía, cronología, etc.) realizados de forma impecable por la profesora Elena Losada Soler.

Princeton University Press The Collected Lyric Poems of Luís de Camões
Luis de Camoes is world famous as the author of the great Renaissance epic The Lusiads, but his large and equally great body of lyric poetry is still almost completely unknown outside his native Portugal. In The Collected Lyric Poems of Luis de Camoes, the award-winning translator of The Lusiads gives English readers the first comprehensive collection of Camoes's sonnets, songs, elegies, hymns, odes, eclogues, and other poems--more than 280 lyrics altogether, all rendered in engaging verse. Camoes (1524-1580) was the first great European artist to cross into the Southern Hemisphere, and his poetry bears the marks of nearly two decades spent in north and east Africa, the Persian Gulf, India, and Macau. From an elegy set in Morocco, to a hymn written at Cape Guardafui on the northern tip of Somalia, to the first modern European love poems for a non-European woman, these lyrics reflect Camoes's encounters with radically unfamiliar peoples and places. Translator Landeg White has arranged the poems to follow the order of Camoes's travels, making the book read like a journey. The work of one of the first European cosmopolitans, these poems demonstrate that Camoes would deserve his place among the great poets even if he had never written his epic.

The University of Chicago Press Selected Sonnets: A Bilingual Edition
The most important writer in Portuguese history and one of the preeminent European poets of the early modern era, Luis de Camoes (1524-80) has been ranked as a sonneteer on par with Petrarch, Dante, and Shakespeare. Championed and admired by such poets as William Blake, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Edgar Allan Poe, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Camoes was renowned for his intensely personal sonnets and equally intense life of adventure.The first significant English translation of Camoes' sonnets in more than one hundred years, "Selected Sonnets: A Bilingual Edition" collects seventy of Camoes' best - all musically rendered by William Baer into contemporary, yet metrical and rhymed, English-language poetry, with the original Portuguese on facing pages.A comprehensive selection of sonnets that demonstrates the full range of Camoes' interests and invention, "Selected Sonnets" will prove indispensable for both students and teachers in comparative and Renaissance literature, Portuguese and Spanish history, and the art of literary translation.
