Historical period in literature:
Modern literature, Modernism period
A lucid mind to his time
As a writer, José Régio was devoted to romance, theater, poetry and essay. Central
in his work are the issues of conflict between God and Man, the individual and
society. Carrying out a constant self-contained analysis and insight, his work is
strongly marked by the psychologist tone and, simultaneously, by a mysticism which
is shown in restless reasons as angelism or redemption in suffering.
His poetry of great lyrical and dramatic tension, often presents itself as
a kind of dialogue between different levels of consciousness. The same psychological
intensity, combined with a sense of social criticism, takes place in fiction.
