This was reflected in the document which accused the Jesuits of attempting to assassinate the king ruin the kingdom destroy Portugal and "clandestinely pursuing the usurpation of the entire state of Brazil with such an artificial and so violent progress that if it was not promptly and effectively shut down".the Company of Jesus' goal would be accomplished.

1678200041AG1678. Paris Sanson d'Abbeville 1678. Original hand-coloured engraving. Plate Size: 53.6 cm x 41.7 cm. Sheet Size: 61.8 cm x 46.5 cm. Original map. In very good condition. Faint signs of browning to map. Minor paper imperfections to the outer margins. Small stain to map near centre-fold. A richly detailed map showing the northern part of Portugal. Relief on map depicted pictorially and border inlaid with longitudinal and latitudinal details The map is dominated by three rivers: the Tajo Tagus in the south the Douro and the Minho further north. The Spanish kingdom and regions such as Leon are included and the great city of Salamanca can be seen. The lower part of the map runs out before the Tagus estuary empties into the Atlantic at Lisbon. The ornamental title cartouche is in the lower right corner of the map. Off the coast is a large warship flying the coat-of-arms Kingdom of Portugal and the Algarves. The sails of the boat carry Latin text commemorates the commercial and maritime exploits of King John IV in Africa Arabia Ethiopia Persia India and Brazil. Nicolas Sanson 20 December 1600 7 July 1667 was a French cartographer termed by some the creator of French geography in which he's been called the "father of French cartography." The French school of Geography was unprecedented in its attention to precision and scientific detail and discarded much of the decorative embellishments of previous maps as irrelevant. From Sanson's time in the second half of the seventeenth century until the latter part of the eighteenth century French geographical conceptions were more influential than those put forward by any other nation. He was tutor to Louis XIII and Louis XIV. Sanson published over 300 maps. In 1692 Hubert Jaillot collected Sanson's maps in an Atlas nouveau. Wikipedia unknown

177241404Lisboa: impresso na officina de Miguel Rodrigues 1772. First edition. Removed. Very good clean copies both removed from larger volumes with numerals noted on top edge of each leaf. 4 pp.; 6 pp.203-208. Approx 8 x 11 1/2 each. Two documents five years apart concerning the needed educational reform in Portugal at the Collegio de Nobres. The first document concerns rules to tighten up the procedures of the College of Nobles instituted by Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo Marquês de Pombal just a year earlier to strengthen scientific education and the second with further reforms to educate the sons of the nobility with useful and practical knowledge shortly before the school's failure. Pombal's attempt "was not a successful enterprise: among the main causes for its failures were financial difficulties the attitude of the Portuguese nobility who antagonized such an educational programme disciplinary questions and the inappropriateness of the course to students who were too young to profit from them. Scientific teaching lasted for 5 years 1766-1772 " In The Sciences in the European Periphery During the Enlightenment p. 11. It would be the reforms of the University of Coimbra to which the focus was transferred that would finally succeed. OCLC locates a copy of the first document at the BN Espana.
