Summary/Abstract: Although Fernando Pessoa’s work is reputed to constitute an entire body of literature it also comprises an entire body of politics and philosophy. The positions respectively defended by the orthonym and heteronyms assume historical figures of thought and contradict them or radically transform them. The mise en abyme of such positions exposes the orthonym and heteronyms to the possibility of reciprocal refutation and self-refutation. As a result, the relationship of intelligence with itself and with affined or contradictory intelligences undergoes inflections that trace the spectrum of the author’s doubling, thereby raising a cognitive paradox traversed by the question of the inner and outer world.
