On this page you may appreciate Antonio Henriques' future publishings, the working up of projects. To read excerpts of the works just click on the titles.

The author declares the following about his creative process:

“Writing and living are simultaneous processes, but the literary mind doesn´t always function day by day. It depends on the content of the creative concerns. But in general, I´m used to producing at least two books simultaneously, one of essays and the other, fictional, maybe because both cerebral hemispheres – conceptual and imaginative – are simultaneously active in me. Yet this doesn´t deter the fact that during certain periods one project is left unfinished and put into a drawer, while another one appears and occupies all my literary production time.”

At the present moment, I´m producing the following:

1 - THE BEING AND THE PHYSIS: A work on the philosophy of physics, which proposes the investigation of the problem of the being, in the realm of quantum and relativistic physics and therefore goes beyond the question of matter in the whole of the history of philosophy, ending up at the anthological questions concerning the epistemological problems inherent to contemporary, experimental and theoretical physics.

2 - THE GOSPEL ACCORDING JUDAS ISCARIOT: A novel, thus a fictional work, which toys with a realistic perspective of the most famous story of all times. In reality, it is a profound consideration on the religious theme at the basis of our Western civilization, including Judaism, Christianity, and Islamism.

3 - THE IMPRISIONED ANGEL: A novel, maybe a romance, centered on the exploitation of extreme passion, emerging from the fictional web of many personages and based on the metaphorical relation with symbols and stages of Alchemy. This work also takes up formal experimentalism which was present at the beginning of my literary production.

4. TALES (untitled): Eventually my literary imagination felt needy of letting autonomous and punctual complexes flower, sometimes under the form of tales, other times as chronicles or essays and I intend to bring together part of this production in a work based on the unity which will appear.
