He studied in Goa, worked in Portugal, and died at the age of just 32. Yet Júlio Francisco António Adeodato Barreto (3 December 1905 – 6 August 1937), better known as Adeodato Barreto, is still remembered as a Luso-Goan poet and writer. His works include important archetypes and paradigms from Hindu culture. In his poems there are notions of eternal return and transmigration, which are considered anchors of Indian philosophy.
Based on material from http://pt.wikipedia.org I managed to add some text to his Wikipedia page at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adeodato_Barreto If your knowledgeable about his life and times (and work), kindly go and update/correct/add to the above page. By some coincidence, just a week ago, Sandra Ataide Lobo [ [email protected]] wrote: "I have just received a phone call from Kalidas Barreto, son of the Goan poet Adeodato Barreto, informing me that on the 18th July, at 6pm, there will be the inauguration of the third phase of the Park of the Poets in Oeiras. As there will be a statue of Adeodato he asked me to help informing the Goan community and all those that maybe interested in attending the event." ALSO: Wikipedia needs your help to translate from Portuguese to English, from English to Konkani (both Romi and Devanagari) and vice-versa. For more details of how to do it, get in touch offlist! Or just google... all the help is out there. FN -- P +91-832-2409490 M 9822122436 Twitter: @fn Facebook: fredericknoronha Goa,1556 Shared Content at https://archive.org/details/goa1556
