Summary "Dôr e Luz" by Acúrcio Correia da Silva is a collection of poems written in the early 20th century. The book, originating from Coimbra around 1912, reflects the emotional struggles and spiritual aspirations of a young seminarian. Its themes revolve around the interplay of pain and hope, particularly in the context of human suffering and the divine. The collection is structured around various poems that explore the depth of human experience, marked by sorrow, longing, and a quest for understanding amidst life's hardships. Correia da Silva frames his reflections against the backdrop of personal loss and the broader social struggles faced by the marginalized, such as the poor, the laborers, and women in difficult circumstances. He pays tribute to a deceased friend while mourning the fragility of life and emphasizing the need for compassion and spiritual illumination. The verses oscillate between despair and hope, ultimately calling on his peers to advocate for love and peace in a world beset by suffering. Through lyrical imagery and heartfelt sentiments, the author seeks to infuse his readers with a sense of divine light amidst the pervasive darkness of existence.
