In two letters of April 1919, Pessoa informs his friend Francisco Fernandes Lopes that he is preparing with a group of intellectuals a “Portuguese review exclusively aimed at foreigners”, which would be published first in French and then in English. This review, entitled Diogène, never appeared, like so many others he contemplated, but many fragments in French from this planned undertaking have remained, most of which are published here for the first time. Since Pessoa reveals to Lopes that the first issue will comprise an article by Álvaro de Campos called “Diogène – Considérations pour ceux qui n’acceptent pas”, as well as a translation of Campos’ poetical manifesto “Ultimatum”, and since he does not mention any other author except himself, we may imagine that Campos could well be the sole author of all these fragments (consisting of essays and announcements). An analysis of the content, style, and tone of these texts seems to confirm this hypothesis. In addition to the observation that the Greek philosopher Diogenes, under whose auspices the review is placed, has similar reflections as those of Campos, it is possible to identify parallels and echoes between most of the texts presented here and other writings by Campos, including the “Ultimatum”.
