费尔南多·佩索阿(葡萄牙语:Fernando Pessoa,1888年6月13日—1935年11月30日),生于里斯本,是葡萄牙诗人与作家。 他生前以诗集《使命》而闻名于世。 他被认为是继路易·德贾梅士之后最伟大的葡语作家。文评家卜伦在他的作品《西方正典》形容为他是与诺贝尔奖得主巴勃鲁·聂鲁达最能够代表二十世纪的诗人。在2007年票选最伟大的葡萄牙人(英语:Os Grandes Portugueses)中,他排名第八。
他在文学上以“创造”性格闻名,我们称这种写作手法为“异名”(Heteronímia)。各个“异名者”(heterónimos)有着不同的阅历、性格与人生哲学。异名者与作者“自我”之间常常互通书信,交流思想。在众多角色中,以“自我”加上另外三个“异名者”最为成熟及最广为人知。三个“异名者”分别是 Álvaro de Campos、Ricardo Reis 和 Alberto Caeiro。在他们当中,“自我”通常都是最能够带出真理、存在及个性等深层哲学意义的角色。
