Fernando Pessoa
The Fernando Pessoa House has a unique treasure: the private library of this great literary figure. It’s not very often one can find an entire library belonging to a writer with Pessoa’s universal dimension.
Constantine Petrou Cavafy
The Cavafy Archive website was created by the Center for Neo-Hellenic Studies and is owned by the Onassis Foundation. It contains all of Cavafy’s major works in the translation of Edmund Keeley and Philip Sherrard (edited by G.P. Savidis)
