Abstract

Judith Teixeira, known today as a bisexual Portuguese poet of the twentieth century, cites Renée Vivien, Anglo-French lesbian poet, in the epigraph to her book Núa: Poemas de Bysâncio and in her manifesto De Mim. Taking these citations as starting points, this article exmines Renée Vivien's influence on Teixeira, who developed her sense of the eroticism of poetic forms by reading Renée Vivien.
