Question
A poet who wrote in this language left many works as loose manuscripts in a trunk after his 1935 death, and was the subject of a 2021 biography by Richard Zenith. That poet who primarily used this language used the pseudonym Alexander Search and wrote The Book of Disquiet under another of his “heteronyms.” An epic written in this language describes a monstrous personification of a cape called (*) Adamastor, whom its protagonist meets on a voyage of exploration. One author used this language for a novel in which the Doctor’s Wife does not succumb to the title epidemic, as well as for a novel inspired by this language’s poet Fernando Pessoa. For 10 points, name this language used by Luís de Camões (“loo-EES day cam-OYSH”) and the author of Blindness, José Saramago. ■END■
