About Qorpo Santo
- José Joaquim de Campos Leão, also known as Qorpo-Santo (Triunfo, April 19, 1829 - Porto Alegre May 1, 1883), was a Brazilian journalist and playwright.
- He is known to have written the very first absurdist theatre plays, long time before the term Theatre of the Absurd was coined.
- His family put him under judicial interdiction in 1861, because he was "writing down everything".
- As a matter of fact, just in May 1866 he wrote 8 plays, as noted by Guilhermino César.
- He looked for the best mental doctors in Brazil at that time and got a document telling he was sane, but the judge never took him out of the interdiction.
