January 30, 1574. The lifeless body of the State Archivist, Damião de Góis, was found in the streets of Lisbon. Soon his death was surrounded by unknowns: how did he die and what secrets remained unrevealed after his death? Did the Portuguese Crown or the Inquisition have anything to do with the mysterious event? What was his relationship with Luís de Camões, the greatest poet of the Portuguese language? In search of culture and wealth, the humanist historian, de Góis, and the poet, Camões - so different from each other and, at the same time, so similar in their desire to understand the world - crossed paths and faced many dangers. closer than they could have conceived. Through the prodigious travels by land and sea of both adventurers, we will discover an unprecedented perspective of European colonial expansion through Asia, Africa and the New World, the nascent philosophies, cultural disparities, religious conflicts and international conspiracies of the 16th century. .
