Mensagem was published just one year before the death of the author, and is about the past of Portugal. In particular it contemplates the ancient grandeur of Portugal, and glorifies above all the style of Luís de Camões, the author of Os Lusíadas, and the Portuguese discoveries. It points to these people and events as ones which Pessoa believed could regenerate, or return Portugal to its past greatness.
