Life

Morais Filho is considered to be the rediscoverer of Maria Firmina dos Reis (1825–1917): in the 1960s, he happened upon her novella Úrsula from 1859 in an antiquarian bookshop , which she had published under the pseudonym Uma Maranhense . Through his research, he found out the correct name of the author and published a first facsimile of the novella and other works by the author in 1975 .
