About me / Bio:
Ana Luísa Amaral was one of Portugal's foremost poets. Her work, linguistically adventurous and playful, was widely translated, with three collections published in English. She was also a professor at the University of Porto, where she held a Ph.D. on the poetry of Emily Dickinson and had academic publications in the areas of English and American poetry, comparative poetics, and feminist studies. She was a co-author of the Dictionary of Feminist Criticism and responsible for the annotated edition of New Portuguese Letters, a landmark of Portuguese literature and feminism. She also wrote fiction, essays and books for children. She received several distinctions and prizes, such as the Gold Medal of the city of Porto, the Medaille de la Ville de Paris, the Great Prize for Poetry of the Portuguese Writers' Association, the PEN Prize for Fiction, the Premio Leteo, the Premio Reina Sofía de Poesía Iberoamericana, among others. She died of cancer on August 5, 2022, at the age of 66.
