520 _a"O Olho de Vidro" by Camilo Castelo Branco is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story seems to revolve around Francisco Luiz d'Abreu, a medical student in Coimbra during the late 17th century, and also touches upon the lives of other characters facing struggles related to love, persecution, and societal expectations, particularly against the backdrop of the Inquisition. The opening of the novel introduces us to the character of Francisco Luiz d'Abreu on a cold January night in 1692. As he studies his medical theories, he is interrupted by a friend, Antonio de Sá, who returns to Coimbra after a tumultuous period that includes a forbidden romance and flight from persecution. Their reunion reveals the weight of Antonio's experiences over the past year, including loss, love, and the trials of being a "Christian new" during the Inquisition. This nuanced beginning sets the stage for themes of loyalty, sacrifice, and the consequences of societal constraints, particularly through the lens of Jewish and Christian identities struggling for breath against the forces of historical antagonism.
