Dear Carlos and others,Please address me as John or Joao Manuel. No need to address me as Prof. Dr.Most of the data on Paulino Dias have already been reviewed here. In reply to your question:Paulino Dias was born in 1874 and died in 1919 (died at age 45). He was a physician gradudated from Escola Medica in 1897.He taught at Escola Normal, Instituto Comercial, and Liceu Nacional Afonso de Albuquerque. He was a great poet and flute player. I believe he was a family physician.Propercia Correia Afonso de Figueiredo had organized small group literary sessions that included Paulino Dias, Ramachondra Xencora Naique (boh Professors at that School) and Baki Borcar, a graduate of that School (I do not know if he also taught at Escola Normal), among others.For those of you who may not know: Escola Normal Massano de Amorim trained future teachers of primary schools (kindergarten and elementary).In the Portuguese medical education system, physicians were expected to be scholars and humanists, not just "technicians" or writers of prescriptions. This is probaby the reason why Escola Medica, that belonged to that system, produced so many writers. A very short list to which many other names could be added: Francisco Luiz Gomes (died at the age of 40), Floriano Barreto (died at the age of 26), Wolfango da Silva, Antonio Colaco, etc. All Goans all over the world should be proud of their accomplishments. We received a brilliant culture from our ancestors. We should be proud of our intellectual inheritance..Warm regards,John M de Figueiredo On Sunday, May 7, 2023 at 07:45:50 PM GMT-5, Carlos Peres da Costa <[email protected]> wrote: That was an interesting information Prof. Dr. João Manoel. I tried to access the YouTube but the audio recording was horrible. Besides Paulino Dias' literary works , did he spend some time in Brazil ? Did he practice medicine in Brazil ? What speciality ? One more shortcoming, as I have not been able to get a copy or an electronic version of Médicos formados pela Escola Médico Cirúrgica de Goa do not know which year he graduated. Carlos Peres da Costa

He also played the flute beautifully.

O País do Súria incorporates Indian mythology as a theme of the literary culture of Portuguese India, at the turn of the 19th to the 20th century.The work of Paulino Dias had an uncertain destiny, but the present edition published by Alameda Editorial is a novelty in Brazil. Paulino Dias is an important Portuguese-speaking poet from Goa and one of the central authors of its canon, still in the process of being identified by critics, as it is a literature until recently ignored, despite its rich source of works.There is no better way to disseminate this literature than this: to offer the Portuguese-speaking reader an edition of the work of a significant writer (and essayist), recovering him from oblivion. The book was entitled O País de Súria: the collected works of Paulino Dias, inspired by a note that Duarte Drumond Braga found on the back cover of Revista da Índia. The main point worth noting is that the author's creative output proved to be quite extensive, this being a compilation of his writing. It is certainly a model work for those who seek to edit and study the corpus of Goan writing in the Portuguese language. About the author: Francisco Xavier Paulino Dias was a prominent Goan poet, whose literary works are the most beautiful expression of the intersection and integration of Indian and European cultures. The poet was a regular contributor to several newspapers and magazines, such as the monthly magazine A Clínica Moderna and, in collaboration with Adolfo Costa, he directed the Revista da Índia.
