Early life

From left to right: Gonçalves Dias, Manuel de Araújo Porto-Alegre and Magalhães, on a picture dating from c. 1858

Domingos José Gonçalves de Magalhães was born in Rio de Janeiro, to Pedro Gonçalves de Magalhães Chaves. His mother's name is unknown. He entered in a Medicine course in 1828, graduating in 1832.

Career

In the following year, he travelled to Europe, where he met and befriended Manuel de Araújo Porto-Alegre and was exposed to the Romantic ideals. He wrote in 1836 a Romantic manifesto, Discurso Sobre a História da Literatura no Brasil, and, in the same year, he published the poetry book Suspiros Poéticos e Saudades, the first Romantic work to be written by a Brazilian.

Returning to Brazil in 1837, he wrote two tragic plays: António José, ou O Poeta e a Inquisição in 1838 and Olgiato in 1839. In 1838 he became a Philosophy teacher in the Colégio Pedro II. He founded with Porto-Alegre and Francisco de Sales Torres Homem the short-lived magazine Niterói; only two issues were published.

He began a diplomatic career in 1847, serving as minister in the United States, Argentina, Austria and in the Holy See. He was a chargé d'affaires in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, the Piedmont, Russia, and Spain. He was esteemed by Emperor Pedro II, and was decorated with the Order of the Rose, the Order of Christ and the Order of the Southern Cross, and with the title of Baron of Araguaia in 1872, and was elevated to Viscount two years later.

Personal life

Magalhães married Januaria de Sa Pinto Ribeiro. They had a daughter Januaria, born in Rio de Janeiro on 2 August 1855, who married at Paris on 12.12.1883 Bozon Doublet Marquess of Persan and Bandeville, and died in Versailles (France) on 27 April 1928.

Marie known as Olga was born in Paris on 3 October 1889, and died in Paris on 26 August 1960. She married Georges de Marande.
