Nuno Markl

Nuno Frederico Correia da Silva Lobato Markl nasceu em Lisboa, a 21 de Julho de 1971, no Hospital da Cruz Vermelha. Com apenas 4 anos já fazia as suas próprias bandas desenhadas, servindo-se de uma miríade de personagens para dar alma às suas histórias. Até que aos 10 anos de idade surgiu uma paixão ainda mais forte: a rádio! E foi precisamente com esta idade que começou as suas emissões radiofónicas embora estas não chegassem muito mais longe que o seu quarto. Utilizava um velho gravador National onde gravava a emissão, um microfone e uma telefonia a pilhas. Em tempo de férias ia a Vila do Conde que é a sua segunda terra (a primeira é Benfica onde vive desde a infância).
Mas foi durante o tempo de aulas que Nuno teve a sua primeira experiên

Luís de Camões

Luís Vaz de Camões (Portuguese pronunciation: [luˈiʃ vaʃ dɨ kaˈmõȷ̃ʃ]; sometimes rendered in English as Camoens; c. 1524 – June 10, 1580) is considered Portugal's, and the Portuguese language's, greatest poet. His mastery of verse has been compared to that of Shakespeare, Vondel, Homer, Virgil, and Dante. He wrote a considerable amount of lyrical poetry (in Portuguese and in Spanish) and drama but is best remembered for his epic work Os Lusíadas (The Lusiads). His recollection of poetry The Parnasum of Luís de Camões was lost in his lifetime.

Gil Vicente

Gil Vicente, called the Trobadour, was a Portuguese playwright and poet who acted in and directed his own plays. Considered the chief dramatist of Portugal he is sometimes called the "Portuguese Plautus" and often referred to as the "Father of Portuguese drama." Vicente worked in Portuguese as much as he worked in Spanish and is thus, with Juan del Encina, considered joint-father of Spanish drama.

Vicente was attached to the courts of the Portuguese kings Manuel I and John III. He rose to prominence as a playwright largely on account of the influence of Queen Dowager Leonor, who noticed him as he participated in court dramas and subsequently commissioned him to write his first theatrical work.

Eça de Queirós

José Maria Eça de Queirós was a novelist committed to social reform who introduced naturalism and realism to Portugal. He is often considered to be the greatest Portuguese novelist, certainly the leading 19th-century Portuguese novelist whose fame was international. The son of a prominent magistrate, Eça de Queiroz spent his early years with relatives and was sent to boarding school at the age of five. After receiving his degree in law in 1866 from the University of Coimbra, where he read widely French, he settled in Lisbon. There his father, who had since married Eça de Queiroz' mother, made up for past neglect by helping the young man make a start in the legal profession. Eça de Queiroz' real interest lay in literature, however, and soon
