Cassiano Ricardo (July 26, 1895 – January 14, 1974) was a Brazilian journalist, literary critic, and poet.

An exponent of the nationalistic tendencies of Brazilian modernism, he was associated with the Green-Yellow and Anta groups of the movement before launching the Flag group, a social-democratic reaction to these groups. His work evolved into concrete poetry at the end of his career. If more than four authors, truncate the list to the first four.

Career

He became a late adherent to Brazilian modernism and co-founded the mystical nationalist journal Novissima.[1] His Marcha para Oeste supported the frontier for being both anti-liberal and democratic.[2] He held a hierarchical view of such a society with the whites holding "the spirit of adventure and command".[3]
