As Farpas: Chronica Mensal da Politica, das Letras e dos Costumes (1873-01/02)

Edited by Eça de Queirós · Edited by Ramalho Ortigão

"As Farpas: Chronica Mensal da Politica, das Letras e dos Costumes (1873-01/02)" by Ramalho Ortigão and Eça de Queirós is a monthly publication that first appeared in 1871. This Portuguese periodical presented biting caricatures of contemporary society through critical and ironic articles that satirized partisan journalism, economic decay, religious institutions, and social customs. Born from censored intellectual conferences, it pioneered a new form of journalism in Portugal—one focused on ideas and cultural criticism—offering sharp sociological observations of daily life that would influence Queirós's later novels.
