Timeline

1905

Adalgisa Nery (October 29, 1905 – June 7, 1980) was a Brazilian poet, journalist and politician.

She was born in Rio de Janeiro as Adalgisa Maria Feliciana Noel Cancela Ferreira, the daughter of a civil servant.

1922

In 1922 she married Ismael Nery (1900–1934), a painter and poet who introduced Adalgisa to a circle of Brazilian artists and intellectuals that included Manuel Bandeira, Jorge de Lima and Murilo Mendes.

1927

The Nerys lived in Europe from 1927 to 1929, where they met the artist Marc Chagall and the Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos.

1930

Although the poet Murilo Mendes had proposed marriage to Nery in the late 1930s, she married in 1940 Lourival Fontes (1899–1967), director general of the Department of Press and Propaganda (DIP).

In the dictatorship ("Estado Novo") of Getúlio Vargas, the DIP was in charge of censorship.

Nery assisted the DIP as a social director and public relations officer.

1934

Ismael died of tuberculosis in 1934, leaving Adalgisa with two sons.

Nery began to publish poetry and fiction after her first husband's death.

1937

Her first book, Poemas, published in 1937, received critical acclaim, and she wrote short stories and magazine articles.

1944

When Fontes was named Brazilian ambassador to Mexico in 1944, Nery accompanied him and met Diego Rivera (who painted Nery's portrait), Frida Kahlo, José Clemente Orozco and David Alfaro Siqueiros.

1953

After Nery and Fontes separated in 1953, Nery began the political phase of her career.

1954

As a columnist for the Rio de Janeiro newspaper Última Hora from 1954 to 1966, she advocated socialism and Brazilian nationalism.

1960

The success of her newspaper column helped Nery to be elected as a member of the constituent assembly for Guanabara State (now the city of Rio de Janeiro) in 1960 for the left-wing Brazilian Socialist Party (PSB).

Nery distinguished herself in the state legislature for her opposition to Guanabara Governor Carlos Lacerda and her high ethical standards.

1962

She was reelected to the state legislature in 1962 and 1966.

1965

After the military regime banned political parties in 1965, Nery joined the Brazilian Democratic Movement (MDB), which was the official opposition to the military regime.

1969

In 1969, the military junta then governing Brazil ended Nery's mandate and stripped her of the right to run for office or vote for 10 years.

Nery spent the last years of her life in increasing depression and seclusion.

She died in a retirement home in Rio de Janeiro.

Various short stories and poems by Nery have been translated into English, French, German and Italian.
