About me / Bio:
Olavo Bilac was a Brazilian poet and writer, one of the most important and influential authors of the 19th century in Brazil. He was born in Rio de Janeiro, in 1865, and studied medicine and law, but did not finish either course. He began his literary career in 1884, publishing his first poem, Sesta de Nero, in the newspaper Gazeta de Notícias. He was one of the founders and leaders of the Parnassian movement, which valued the formal perfection and aesthetic refinement of poetry. He wrote several poetry books, such as Poesias, Crônicas e Novelas, Crítica e Fantasia, and Ironia e Piedade. He also wrote the lyrics of the Brazilian Flag Anthem, which was composed by Francisco Braga. He was a journalist, a translator, a teacher, and a public servant. He was a member of the Brazilian Academy of Letters and was elected the Prince of Brazilian Poets in 1907 by the magazine Fon-Fon. He died in 1918, at the age of 53, in Rio de Janeiro. He is regarded as one of the greatest masters of Brazilian poetry and one of the main representatives of Parnassianism.
