FIRST EDITION. Published posthumously, it is considered Francisco Manuel de Melo's best work. Consisting of a total of four texts - 1.: Talking Clocks; 2: Miserly Office; 3: Visit of the fountains; 4: Hospital das Letras - addresses themes of criticism of customs, morals and vices and the use of irony and a joking tone, typical of the Baroque. The fourth is a literary criticism text in which four authors make assessments of Portuguese and Spanish works. Very rare.
