Information taken with due permission from the website Academia.edu: «Thirty-two years after the publication of 'On Portugal', Ática presents a new edition, this time dedicated exclusively to Sebastianism and the Fifth Empire. In this book, 'Sebastianism and the Fifth Empire' (2011), twenty-three texts originally published in 1979 are reissued, thirty-five others previously published separately in different editions, and forty-three unpublished texts are transcribed and organized. Based on new technologies following the digitization of Pessoa's legacy, significant improvements are included in the reading of documents and the collation of dispersed materials. The preparation of an edition dedicated to Sebastianism and the Fifth Empire involved the task of chronologically situating the texts, tracing the path these themes have taken in the public understanding of Pessoa's work, including texts that Pessoa himself published during his lifetime in newspapers and magazines, aiming to provide as complete a view as possible of the content of Pessoa's legacy related to this part which since 1979 has been seen by readers as fundamental within the broader scope of his work, as indeed already indicated by the fact that Mensagem was the only book in Portuguese that Pessoa published.»
