Haroldo de Campos was a Brazilian poet, critic, and translator. He and his brother Augusto de Campos, together with Décio Pignatari, formed the poetic group Noigandres that published the experimental journal of the same name, which would launch the Brazilian movement of poesia concreta (concrete poetry).
He translated some of the most important literature of the Western tradition into Portuguese, such as Homer's Iliad, prose by James Joyce and poetry by Mallarmé. When he died he left unfinished a translation of Dante's Comedia, a manuscript that Umberto Eco had a chance to read, which compelled him to say that "Haroldo de Campos is the best Dante translator in the world". ...more

Quotes by Haroldo de Campos (?)

“LAMENTO SOBRE O LAGO NEMI

O azar é um dançarino nu entre os alfanjes.
Na praia, além do rosto, a corola das mãos.
Chama teu inimigo. O azar é dançarino.
Reúne os seus herdeiros e proclama o Talião.

A virgem que encontrei coroada de rainúnculos
Não era – assim o quis – a virgem que encontrei.
O azar é um dançarino; teme os seus alfanjes.
Amanhã serei morto, mas agora sou rei.

Nu entre os alfanjes, coroado de rainúnculos,
Chama o teu inimigo e a virgem que encontrei.
Na praia, além do rosto, eu agora estou morto.
O azar é um dançarino. Amanhã serás rei.”
― Haroldo de Campos, Poemas
