A espada de Alexandre Corte profundo da questão do Homem-Mulher e Mulher-Homem

A vivid, epistolary opening drops listeners into a moon‑lit night on a bustling Lisbon‑style street, where a flamboyant poet‑letter writer addresses his neighbour Raimundo. Amid the clatter of lanterns and the scent of blooming congo trees, the two spar over a controversial book that questions the very definitions of man and woman, mixing theological references, folk sayings and biting satire. The writer’s voice crackles with the energy of a 19th‑century salon, inviting the audience to hear the tangled arguments about gender, marriage and the divine order.

From this heated debate the narrator launches into a personal project: a tragedy titled “O homem de Claudia,” which he promises to stage in a daring theater‑circus. As he outlines his philosophical foundations, the listener catches glimpses of a world where ideas about the soul, sacrament and social roles collide, setting the stage for a bold, thought‑provoking drama that challenges conventions without yet revealing its ultimate resolution.
