Written in ten cantos of ottava rima, this Portuguese national epic celebrates Vasco da Gama's discovery of a sea route to India. Blending history with mythology, the poem features gods, nymphs, and sea monsters alongside Portuguese explorers. Through grand speeches and vivid descriptions, Camões transforms Portugal's voyages of discovery into a Homeric saga that rivals the ancient epics of Virgil and Homer.
