Inácio José de Alvarenga Peixoto (1744 - 1793)
Inácio José de Alvarenga Peixoto was a Colonial Brazilian Neoclassic poet and
a lawyer. He wrote under the pen name Eureste Fenício.
Biography
Peixoto was born in Rio de Janeiro, to Simão Alvarenga Braga and Maria
Braga. He studied at the Jesuit College in Rio and would later graduate in
Law at the University of Coimbra, where he met and befriended <a
href="http://yeni.poemhunter.com/jos-bas-lio-da-gama/">Basilio da
Gama</a>, another Brazilian poet.
After he graduated, he served as juiz-de-fora in Sintra. Returning to Brazil,
he was senator of the city of São João del Rei and the ouvidor of the
Comarca of Rio das Mortes. Due to overdue taxes, Peixoto would adhere to
the unsuccessful 1789 Minas Conspiracy, alongside the poets Tomás António
Gonzaga and Cláudio Manuel da Costa, the priest José da Silva de Oliveira
Rolim and the alférez Joaquim José da Silva Xavier (a.k.a. "Tiradentes").
Joaquim Silvério dos Reis, a member of the Conspiracy, delated the
movement before it could take place. Peixoto was then captured, arrested
and sent to exile in the city of Ambaca, in Angola, where he died. Peixoto
was married to poetess Bárbara Heliodora (1758–1819), having with her four
children. It is said that Heliodora suffered from a severe dementia after
Peixoto was exiled.
