Summary "O General Carlos Ribeiro" by Camilo Castelo Branco is a novel written in the late 19th century. This work offers a narrative that revolves around the life, experiences, and notable intellect of Carlos Ribeiro, a Portuguese geologist known for his contribution to anthropology and archaeology. The text weaves together elements of personal recollection, social commentary, and scientific exploration. The story unfolds through the lens of the narrator, who shares his memories of Carlos Ribeiro, detailing his academic achievements and the challenges he faced. The novel intricately explores Ribeiro's character, touching upon his interactions with women, notably a beautiful but troubled woman named Gloria, whose tumultuous life adds a layer of drama to the narrative. As Ribeiro navigates his emotional entanglements and the societal expectations of his era, the novel paints a vivid picture of 19th-century Portuguese society. It captures the juxtaposition of scientific inquiry and personal setbacks, ultimately reflecting on the struggles of both the protagonist and the broader cultural context in which he lived.
