| Description |
Buried in the dunes at Warnambool is the wreck of a 16th century Portuguese caravel...so it's said.
Forget Britannia. Portugal ruled the waves. Heroic marinheiros (sailors) braved the seas in company with gods as chronicled by Luis Carmoes, the 16th century poet who invented a national myth.
Marinheiro revisits his epic poem The Lusiads, in the light of all that's happened since. |
