Therefore, it expresses the hope that everyone will find ”in its pages the necessary complement to their personal observations. In the retort of the world, a new lifestyle is being developed. This magazine invites the Portuguese to examine this retort with eager curiosity, to see if they can glimpse the uncertain forms of the future” (p. 5).
