Innocêncio uncharacteristically declines to catalogue all the author's works: "Parece-me desnecessario além de difficil, apresentar aqui um catalogo geral de todas as suas producções." Rodrigues da Costa was a poet of arcadismo, using the name Josino Leirense in the Nova Arcadia. His narrative poem O balão dos habitantes da lua (1819) is considered the first Portuguese work of science fiction.*** Not in Innocêncio; on the author, see IV, 304-5; XII, 295;… Leer más
