The present special issue of Portuguese Studies has as its focus Portuguese poetry from the latter part of the twentieth century to our actual present. This poetry figures here in various ways, most directly with the section containing a brief anthology of texts from some of contemporary Portuguese poetry's most significant authors. And of course the collection of critical essays that engage with the various issues and problematics that have marked this poetry, including a continuous experimentation in terms of form, media, and intermediality. Added to this we also have six reviews of recent books and journals that allow for yet another view of our subject's vibrancy.
