Portuguese Romanticism was a literary school that revealed great names such as Almeida Garrett and Camilo Castelo Branco, as well as highlighting its great achievements such as Viagens na Minha Terra and Amor de Perdição, which are two works from different phases of this school, but which are brilliant and take the reader on a journey through the fascinating world of literature. When it comes to comparing the works, their historical journey leads us to realise the resourcefulness and detail of the actions taken by each character and how each one participated in the unfolding of the tales.We can say with certainty that the two tales are of great importance to Portuguese literature, as well as to Brazilian literature, in which they were inspirations.
