Corte Aldea - LOBO (Francisco Rodrigues) CORTE na Aldea, & Obras Pastoris . Lisboa Occidental: Na Officina de Joam Antunes Pedrozo & Francisco Xavier de Andrade; Mathias Pereyra da Sylva, 1721-1722. 2 v.: [ ]2, A-Z8, Aa-Gg8; [4], 478, [2 br.] pp.; A-Z, Aa-Cc8, Dd6; 428 pp.; 200 mm. Edition of the pastoral works of Francisco Rodrigues Lobo, bringing together Corte na Aldeia and his bucolic dialogues, in one of the most important testimonies of Portuguese baroque bucolicism. Published in Lisbon in 1722, this volume compiles the most emblematic texts of Francisco Rodrigues Lobo (1580–1622), a central author of Portuguese literary baroque. Corte na Aldeia , structured in dialogues, articulates moral, social and philosophical themes under the guise of country conversations between nobles retired from the court, offering a subtle critique of the society of his time. Obras Pastoris include his famous Pastor Peregrino , Primavera and Desenganado , which fuse the classical ideal of Arcadia with spiritual and existential concerns, in a lyrical and elaborate style.
