Resumen
The present study deals with the work O Pastor Peregrino (1608) by Francisco
Rodrigues Lobo. Published in the early seventeenth century, O Pastor Peregrino is the
second work of the pastoral trilogy of Rodrigues Lobo. The trilogy receives the title of
the first book, A Primavera, of 1601 and is finalized with O Desenganado in 1614.
Following the narrative trail left in A Primavera, the second volume of the plot tells the
journey of Lereno’s pilgrimage, protagonist of the first two Works. Once a shepherd
who lived in the margins of Lis and Lena, Lereno is thrown into exile unjustly by Amor
and Ventura. During the narrative, the hero's pilgrimage acquires a distinct penitent
character. An instrument of spiritual improvement, the journey is full of episodes in
which the hero's patience and fidelity are put to the test. The end of the pilgrimage
occurs when Lereno returns to the native land, where he is crowned, in the end, in
return for his deeds From this conception, it was sought to investigate O Pastor
Peregrino. During the work, through Avallec-Arce (1974) and other critics, the
constitution of the pastoral novel is approached. From Hansen (2006), the question of
allegory is addressed. In the end, through França, Nascimento and Lima (2017), the
work of Kempis (2019) and other authors, the theological content of O Pastor Peregrino
is demonstrated.
