Miguel Urbano Rodrigues (Moura, 1925-Vila Nova da Gaia, 2017), journalist, politician, and author of more than a dozen books of fiction, historical subjects, and politics published in Portugal and Brazil, was the brother of Urbano Tavares Rodrigues. He was editor of the Diário de Notícias from 1949 to 1956. From 1956 to 1957 he was editor-in-chief of the Diário ilustrado. Going into exile in Brazil, he was principal editorial writer for O Estado de São Paulo (1957-1974) and international editor for the review Visão (1970-1974). Returning to Portugal after the 25 April 1974 revolution, he was editor-in-chief during 1974-1975 of the newspaper Avante!, organ of the Portuguese Communist Party (PCP), and directed O Diário from 1976 to 1985. Presidente da Assembleia Municipal of Moura, 1977-1978, he served as deputy to the Assembleia da República for the PCP from 1990 to 1995, and was also a deputy to the European Parliament. Provenance: Ana Maria Salvador Santos, second wife of Urbano Tavares Rodrigues.Urbano Tavares Rodrigues (Lisbon, 1923-Lisbon 2013) grew up in Moura, in the Alentejo, in a family of large landowners, and eventually became a militant communist. He was a widely acclaimed and prolific author of fiction, researcher, essayist, literary critic, professor Catedrático jubilado at the Faculdade de Letras, Universidade de Lisboa, member of the Academia das Ciências de Lisboa, and recipient of many literary prizes. His earliest works were greatly influenced by existentialism, in particular following the literary model of Albert Camus. Simultaneously they display a certain Portuguese turn-of-the-century decadence, particularly influenced by Fialho de Almeida (especially obsessive evocations of the Alentejo), António Patrício and Manuel Teixeira Gomes, all of whom were discussed by Urbano Tavares Rodrigues in critical essays and later in his doctoral thesis.
