Lisboa. 1972-1974. - PORTELA FILHO (Artur) A FUNDA . 1.ª Série a 4.º Volume; com posfácio de Fernando Luso Soares [vol. 1]; com carta-posfácio de Norberto Lopes [vol. 4]. Lisboa: Moraes Editores & Arcádia, 1972-1974. 4 v.; 200 mm. First editions of the first four volumes. A Funda is the most extensive and combative series of chronicles by Artur Portela Filho (Lisbon, 1937 - Abrantes, 2020), published in seven volumes between 1972 and 1977 – the first four of which comprise this set. Gathering chronicles scattered across newspapers and magazines, the series became one of the most forceful instruments of political and cultural intervention by the opposition to the Marcelo Caetano regime, and its volumes record in real time the agony of the Estado Novo, the April Revolution, and the immediate years of the PREC (Processo Revolucionário em Curso – Ongoing Revolutionary Process). The four volumes that make up this set cover the period from the mid-late Estado Novo to the moment of the Revolution, constituting a first-rate historical testimony. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
