Excerpt from Calabar, Vol. 1: Historia Brasileira do S???culo XVII E o autor desta obra capera que lhe relevem a ousadia com que elle, filho de outro paiz, posto que irm???o, mesmo de leve, se atreva a, esbo???ar esta rapida digress???o sobre t???o elevadas quest???es. Todos lhe far???o a justi???a de acreditar que de nenhuma f???rma pretende ingerir-se no que naturalmente est??? t???o fora da sua al???ada e do seu proposito; mas ??? que esses grandes interesses, quando se encar???o de alto, toc???o tambem as raias poeticas, como tudo o que tem a grandiosidade suprema; e elle n???o ??? dos que pens???o que a poesia, musa brilhante, mas ociosa, recreativa, mas inutil, deve Bear inditt'erente ao movimento humanitario, a semelhan???a do humilde menestrel que se comentava de celebrar a victoria; entende, pelo contrario, que o seu dever ??? tambem ajudar o impulso, como o bardo que embocava a tuba para chamar ao combate. E que maiores e mais bellos combates podem inspirar o estro do que os da civilisa??????o? E' esta hoje a idea universalmente aceita; ??? tambem o fructo de um exame consciencioso do passado. A ???poca das academias discreteadoras e das arcadias redundantes acabou. A miss???o da arte ??? maior e mais prolicua.
