The text highlights the life and work of Fernando Távora, reflecting on his calm demeanor but underlying restlessness. It delves into his travels, his conservative background, and his cautious opposition to the fascist regime. The abstract also touches on how Távora grappled with the modern architectural movement, his hybrid modernity, and his influence on the international architecture scene. Furthermore, it explores the significant themes and words – home, Portugal and Portuguese, region, people and popular – that shaped architectural research in Portugal between the 1930s and 1960s, emphasizing their symbolic value and relationship with other disciplines like ethnography and anthropology.
