PAULINO, Vicente. Vida e obra de Alberto Osório de Castro em Timor. []. , 36, pp.57-74.   29--2021. ISSN 2182-4452.  https://doi.org/10.31492/2184-2043.rilp2019.36/pp.57-74.

In this article we intend to explore descriptively the presence of the lawyer and poet Alberto Osorio de Castro who was in Timor, far-off land of Far East. At first, we present his childhood, passing through Coimbra and Mangualde and their participation in literary magazines as a correspondent and author, in which he published several literary studies, poems, chronicles of history and travel. Secondly, we focus on your stay in Timor as judge and observe some of the major works associated with the island of Timor and its people with different cultures, including Coral Flower and The Red and Green Island of Timor, resulting from an approach to these works mediated by the prospect of literature studies and exotic orientalist landscape appreciation of the Timorese world that is guided by the colors of people.

: Alberto Osório de Castro; East Timor; Coral Flowers; Orient; literary studies.
