Considerada la primera gran narrativa de viajes portuguesa, esta obra de Fernão Mendes Pinto relata las aventuras de un portugués que parte hacia Oriente en busca de fortuna. A lo largo de 21 años de travesía, el narrador actúa como espectador y protagonista, ofreciendo un testimonio invaluable sobre la presencia portuguesa en el este y el encuentro con diversas culturas y civilizaciones. Esta edición cuenta con la adaptación de Aquilino Ribeiro, presentando un relato donde las experiencias y vivencias acumuladas resultan ser más valiosas que las riquezas materiales buscadas inicialmente.
Fernão Mendes Pinto was a Portuguese explorer and writer. His voyages are recorded in Pilgrimage, his autobiographical memoir, which was published posthumously in 1614. The historical accuracy of the work is debatable due to the many events that seem far-fetched or at least exaggerated, earning him the nickname Fernão Mentes Minto. Still, many aspects of the work can be verified, particularly through records of Pinto's service to the Portuguese crown and by his association with Jesuit missionaries.
