ResumoI worked for three years with Jorge de Sena, at the University of California, Santa Barbara, as lecturer in Portuguese. At the time I was already familiar with his work. The publication of the third series of Portuguese lyric, 1958, had been essential for my knowledge of Portuguese poetry from the 30s to the late 50s. The intimacy with Sena contributed decisively to my intellectual development. Pessoa, among many other authors from the Lusophone world, was one of the main subjects of my courses, and Sena’s essays on his poetry were a great help. I remember very fondly the frequent visits with my family to Randolph Road, where we always felt at home.
