Minas,1901 He made a living out of a variety of trades before landing a job as both a diplomat and a journalist. He took part in the modernist group Green-Yellow and later on in the Antropofagia Movement founded by Oswald de Andrade, painter Tarsila do Amaral and other Brazilian modernists. Bopp advocated for the development of an autochthonous Brazilian novel that could delve into the huge nation's origins and roots. That explains his poems inspired in the Amazonian nature and jungle-like landscapes shrouded by the mystery of the region. His poetic work includes "Cobra Norato "(1931), "Urucungo" (1933) and "Poesias" (1947), plus the essay "Os Movimientos Modernistas" (1966) and "Putirum" (1969). Raul Bopp died in Porto Alegre in 1984.
