Life
Life
Correia was born on a ship anchored in the shores of São Luís, Maranhão, to desembargador José da Mota de Azevedo Correia and Maria Clara Vieira da Mota de Azevedo Correia. Correia made his secondary course at the Colégio Pedro II, and graduated in Law in 1882, at the Faculdade de Direito da Universidade de São Paulo. He would serve as a successful judge in Rio de Janeiro and Minas Gerais. Correia's first book, Primeiros Sonhos, was published in 1879, and its poems are strongly influenced by Brazilian Romantic poets such as Fagundes Varela, Casimiro de Abreu and Castro Alves. However, he would join Parnassianism in 1883, with his book Sinfonias. Some of his poems are also considered to forerun the Symbolist movement in Brazil. Correia died in 1911 in Paris while he was searching for a treatment for his diseases.
