| Amor de Perdição
| | Camilo Castelo Branco
| Perhaps the height of Portuguese romanticism, Amor de Perdio is a Portuguese Romeo and Juliet. Simo Botelho and Teresa are hopelessly in love, but their families are rivals in Viseu. When Teresa's father, Tadeu, discovers their love, he shuts her in a convent. But, while trying to see his beloved, Simo kills Baltasar, and eventually condemned to death. The sentence is commuted to 10 years of service in India, but before the sentence is executed, both Teresa and Simo die of broken hearts.
