| Summary | "Pero da Covilhan: Episodio Romantico do Seculo XV" by Zephyrino Brandão is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around Pero da Covilhan, a page at the court of the Duke of Medina Sidonia, whose life intertwines with the historical context of 15th-century Spain and Portugal. The novel captures the romantic and adventurous spirit of this period, highlighting the character's relationships, particularly a poignant love story that unfolds against the backdrop of significant historical events. At the start of the novel, the reader is introduced to Seville in the 15th century, a vibrant city filled with opulence and cultural richness. We meet Pero da Covilhan, a charming and eloquent page, who harbors a deep affection for Beatriz, one of the noble ladies at the court. As the story unfolds, Pero grapples with his feelings of love and the uncertainties of life as he embarks on a journey, driven by the call of duty and the undertones of romance. The opening sets the stage for Pero's adventures and establishes the historical tensions of the time, including political intrigue and personal desires, drawing the reader into a world where history and romance intricately entwine.
