About the author
Records in the Digital Library of Literature from Lusophone Countries identify him as Manuel Luiz Caldas Cordeiro, born in 1869 in Portugal and deceased in 1914. He is also listed in library and digitization records under the name Manoel Caldas Cordeiro, a spelling that appears on published works and modern reprints.
Surviving bibliographic records show a varied body of work. His novel Anciosos: (scenas da vida em Lisboa) was published in Lisbon in 1895, while Project Gutenberg also preserves works such as Alexandre Herculano and O Marquez de Pombal, showing his interest in biography and Portuguese historical subjects as well as fiction.
Although detailed personal information is hard to confirm from the sources available, the record that remains suggests a writer engaged with Portuguese cultural life and with the lives of major national figures. His books continue to circulate mainly through library catalogs and public-domain archives, which have helped keep his name accessible to modern readers.
