Orpheu 2v - ORPHEU: Revista Trimestral de Literatura . Direcção de Luís de Montalvor e Ronald de Carvalho [n.º1], Fernando Pessoa e Mário de Sá Carneiro [n.º 2]. - Ano I, n.º 1, Janeiro-Fevereiro-Março de 1915 - Ano I, n.º 2, Abril-Maio-Junho, 1915. Lisboa: Tipografia do Comércio, 1915. 2 n.ºs; 260 mm. A crucial Portuguese literary magazine that lay at the origins of Modernism in Portugal. Characterized by the breaking of traditional poetic and even moral icons, as is well expressed in Luís de Montalvor's introductory text in the first issue, the magazine ”is the trial balloon for multiple new poetic experiences that [...] pave the way for all contemporary poetry” (Revistas Portuguesas do Séc. XX, p. 351). Born from the irreverence of young people ”in tune with the outside world, ” eager to ”scandalize the respectable and lepidopterous bourgeoisie” [GALHOZ, p. XIII], it ran for two issues and a third that remained a galley proof due to lack of funding, apparently from Mário de Sá Carneiro's father. Its originality also lies in the introduction of a pictorial aspect, not as a simple illustration, but as an irreplaceable contribution [GALHOZ, p. XXXV], and it should be noted that the contributors in this area had as a common denominator the fact that they had passed through Paris - José Pacheco, Santa Rita Pintor and Amadeo Sousa Cardoso who would collaborate on the 3rd issue. The contributors, in addition to those already mentioned, are: Luís de Montalvor, Mário de Sá Carneiro, Ronald de Carvalho, Fernando Pessoa, Alfredo Pedro Guisado, José de Almada Negreiros, Cortês Rodrigues, Álvaro de Campos, Ângelo de Lima, Eduardo Guimarães, Raul Leal and Violante de Cysneiros.
