1845–1900
Best known for sharp, witty novels that captured the habits and hypocrisies of 19th-century Portuguese society, this major realist writer also spent much of his life working as a diplomat. His stories mix social satire with memorable characters, which helps explain why works like The Maias still feel lively today.
