Everything about Francisco De Moraes totally explained
Francisco de Moraes Cabral (also spelled
Francisco de Morais Cabral) (
1500? -
1572) was a
Portuguese writer. Born in
Braganza, he served as personal secretary to the Portuguese ambassador in
France, and composed, during two voyages to
Paris (
1540 and
1546), a
chivalric romance called
Palmerin d’Angleterre (
Palmeirim de Inglaterra;
Palmerin of England), a "spin-off" of the popular
Amadis de Gaula series.
Moraes' work would also obtain considerable success across
Europe. Because of its title, it was particularly successful in
England, where it was reprinted several times. A
Spanish translation was made by Luis Hurtado in
1547, preceding the actual publication of the Portuguese text in
1567. It was translated from the Portuguese by Eugène-François Garay de Montglave and can be found in E. Renduel,
Bibliothèque portugaise Warnier, 1829, Paris, 4 vol.
He also wrote an
autobiographical work called
Desculpas de uns amores, set in
France, which was published posthumously in
1624. He died at
Évora.
