Description
Summary:The article presents the Introduction to an institutional program dedicated to the tribute to Camilo Pessanha (1867–1926) on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of his birth, articulating an evocation of greater thematic, geographical and organizational scope than previous commemorations associated with the 90th anniversary of his death. The narrative frames the project within a set of chronological and intellectual convergences, highlighting the shift from a reflection “in three dimensions”—poetry, law and sinology—to a broadened homage that mobilizes multiple cultural and academic entities. Methodologically, the text does not develop its own empirical analysis; rather, it describes the construction model of the celebratory program, based on institutional partnerships (Cooperation Protocol of the Lisbon Geographical Society and the Center for Comparative Studies of the Faculty of Letters, University of Lisbon) and on the integration of complementary activities (conferences, exhibitions and editorial launches). As results and conclusions, the article notes the scheduled realization of events in Lisbon, at the Museum of the Orient and in Porto, as well as the opening of the program through the inauguration of poster exhibitions and bibliographic displays. It also underscores the relevance of the launch of a special edition of *Clepsydra* and the valorization of consolidated critical readings of Pessanha’s work.
