Anónimo

Bibliographic notes

We place under this designation those texts for which we don’t have a minimum reference. Such is the case for the Lais which opens the National Library Songbook (Cancioneiro da Biblioteca Nacional) which may (or may not) be from a single author. As is also the case for several other anonymous compositions or those of uncertain authorship (in this last case, complementary informations are given in the authorship notes, available on the song’s webpages, in a link under the author’s names.
Those songs which, although from unknown authors, are transcribed in groups in the manuscripts - allowing us the deduction that they are from the same author - are attributed to numbered anonymous (Anonymous 1, 2 etc.)
