Two thematic lines: the omnipresence of the theme of the maritime voyage in Portuguese culture â which AntÃ3nio Quadros calls the â myth of Henryâ , â and its inflections in literature, more specifically, in CamÃμesâ s The Lusiads (Os Lusíadas) and Fernão Mendes Pintoâ s Pilgrimage (Peregrinação) were examined. Thus, we focus on the state of the art about the topic of Henryism/the maritime voyage, taking into account the perspective of todayâ s Portuguese scholars, and we look at how this theme is expressed in The Lusiads and Pilgrimage, thereby proving that these Renaissance works remain vital for the actual imaginary of the Portuguese people.
