Guilherme Avelino Chave de Azevedo

Born in Santarém, Guilherme de Azevedo was a Portuguese journalist and poet associated with the "Generation of 70," a group that helped push Portuguese literature toward more modern and socially engaged writing. Sources consistently describe him as influenced by writers such as Victor Hugo and Charles Baudelaire, while also linking his work to the revolutionary poetic current introduced in Portugal by Antero de Quental.

Alongside his literary work, he was active in journalism. He later served as a correspondent in Paris for the Gazeta de Notícias of Rio de Janeiro, and he died in Paris in 1882. His best-known book is A Alma Nova, and his writing is remembered for combining lyrical style with civic and moral urgency.

One detail is worth noting: some catalog records use the fuller form "Guilherme Avelino Chave(s) de Azevedo," while major biographical sources refer to him simply as Guilherme de Azevedo. The biographical source I found gives his lifespan as 1839–1882, so the 1846 birth year in your prompt does not match the main reference I located.
