Life
When he was four years old, the family moved to Lisbon . He attended the secondary schools Liceu Camões and Liceu Gil Vicente in Lisbon. In the latter he met Leonardo Coimbra and had his first contact with poetry . Although Ferreira was much younger, he wrote a sonnet together with Fernando Pessoa for the magazine Ressurreição (Resurrection), of which he later became editor.
