Foi este monarca muito dado às ciências e às letras as quais mostra ter cultivado tanto quanto o permitia o estado dos conhecimentos naquela época. As obras mais importantes saídas da pena d'El-Rei D. Duarte que depois de jazerem pouco menos que ignoradas eram apenas conhecidos os títulos por mais de quatro séculos gozaram afinal da luz pública são: Leal Conselheiro seguido da Arte de Bem Cavalgar. Dado pela primeira vez á luz sobre o manuscripto original da Bibliotheca Real de Paríscom notas philologicas e um glossario das palavras antigas por José Ignacio Roquete. Paris 1842. 4.o maximo com um fac simile do manuscripto. Do que se diz no prologo desta edição parece concluir se que fora o Visconde de Santarém o primeiro que ali descobrira a existência do Leal Conselheiro; porém isto não é exacto. Já em 1804 o Abade Corrêa estando em Paris deparou com o manuscrito que o continha como se vê de uma carta que o mesmo abade escreveu a Antonio de Araujo então ministro de Estado e da resposta deste; documentos que em seu poder conserva o Sr. M. B. Lopes Fernandes e que fez publicar na Revista Universal Lisbonense vol. III da 1.ª serie 1843 artigo 299. Por mandado de Araujo o sobredito abade fez extrair uma cópia; mas por motivo ignorado em vez de a remeter guardou a consigo até que por seu falecimento em 1823 sua irmã a ofereceu á Academia Real das Ciências onde julgo que existe ainda manuscrita.</p>_x000d_<p>EN In quarto big. 28x21.5 cm. xxxii 672 pp.</p>_x000d_<p>Contemporary half calf binding gilt at spine one dent at top of spine and worned out corners at folders.</p>_x000d_<p>Illustrated with a folding lithographed facsimile of the first page of the original manuscript.</p>_x000d_<p>Copy with some slight damp stains at title page and general foxing mostly due to paper quality.</p>_x000d_<p>Work containing a Political Advice to monarchs Leal Consellheiro and the first European work on horse riding Arte de Cavalgar.

He intended this atlas as a new edition of Ptolemy’s Geographia but included the addition of 20 modern maps which were not based upon the tradition of Ptolemy.

The speech was given on February 9 1562 in front of the bishops and other attendants of the council when King Sebastião was just 8 years old. The speeches provided by the Kings of the European nations were to be measured carefully as the position taken by the Church in many matters carried geo-political changes; not a century ago the Pope had granted a large portion of the South American territories to Portugal through the Treaty of Tordesillas a line that took centuries to properly determine. It is unknown who wrote this speech but it is often attributed to Giovanni Strozzi active 1547-1562 who wrote another similar work. The text makes clear that the kings of Portugal have always been good Christians and promises that Sebastião will be as well. The last page contains the response from the Synod. This work rarely appears on the market.The Council of Trent was an ecumenical council of the Catholic Church held in reponse to the Protestant Reformation. There were 25 sessions over the course of 18 years. The attendants discussed the Church's doctrine and teachings in order to clarify them and defined what it considered to be heresies.

Manuel I King of Portugal’s signed letter to the Female Monastery of Santa Maria de Tarouquela.<br /> In his letter Manuel I advising the monastery of Santa Maria of Tarouquela to obey better the Benedictine <br /> the rules. “In 1514 we see the first signs of the autophagy process in which this monastery had been involved since the very beginning — an autophagy that resulted from its physical isolation from its size and its intrinsically family-related nature. The Benedictine habit was not even ruling the nuns’ habits anymore as we may infer from the intervention of King Manuel I 1495–1521 who asks the abbess of Arouca from the Cistercian order to put an end to that situation of neglect. The connection to Arouca despite the different rules is probably a result of a geographical proximity that allowed surveillance and after some time the emergence of an almost filial status that was preserved in Tarouquela until its extinction. In fact it is by mentioning the isolated nature of a place “where little was done to serve†God − a location and status that was similar to that of other female institutes Vairão Vila do Conde Vila Cova Vila Nova de Gaia TuÃas and Rio Tinto Gon- domar − that the sale king ordered their fusion in a single monastic house to be built in Porto†Machado 2014. Eventually the nuns of Tarouquela were transferred to the convent in Porto in 1536.<br /> Literature: Machado R. ed.: Route of the Romanesque Rota do Românico.

Small quarto 4 leaves the last blank; woodcut device on title; page numbers in ink from an earlier binding within a volume; in a later plain wrappers binding and a folding case. <p><p>Extremely rare printed letter from King Sebastian of Portugal to Pope Pius V in which the king asks for more priests especially Jesuits stressing the significance of Portuguese conquests in the Far East in the process detailing the number of ships laden with treasure and trade goods arriving daily in Lisbon.</p> <p>The strategic relationships between the rulers of Portugal and Spain with the papacy were crucial in the discovery and colonisation period. The splitting of the new world enacted by the treaty of Tordesillas left the Portuguese and Spanish eager to exploit any advantage that could be gained and often the evangelisation of pagan natives was used to justify territorial ambitions; it was often in these pious terms that the pope was lobbied for his support.</p> <p>This letter from Sebastian is an excellent example of the sort of lobbying that took place. Donald Lach has written extensively about the nature of the exotic in the East Indies and the Far East describing how these printings often encompass exotic subjects for which monarch and pope both had a taste. In his relations with Pius V's namesake and predecessor for example Sebastian had been asked for and had promised a pair of elephants for the papal menagerie see Lach II 1 150n.</p> <p>The printing of letters and diplomatic orations such as this formed a critical part of the lobbying. Important records of the significance accorded to the new world it seems that they were generally printed in small numbers for limited circulation hence the tiny survival rate of any of these early works with this example particularly uncommon: USTC records five copies four of them in Italy and WorldCat adds another at Yale while the last copy that we can identify on the market was that offered by Maggs Bros in 1935.</p> <p>---</p> <p>At Sebastian's death fighting the Moors in north Africa the destiny of Portugal changed completely and from then on she would be under Spanish sway. "When at last she found herself again a free and independent state 1640 the sceptre of the Indies had passed irrevocably to Holland and England' Penrose p. 75. Nonetheless Sebastian still occupies a most important position in Portuguese history in which he has been compared with King Arthur or Barbarossa: he was known as the "sleeping king" who would mysteriously return at Portugal's time of great need. 'He would then be known by symbolic names: O Encoberto The Hidden One who would return on a foggy morning to save Portugal; or as O Desejado The Desired. The legend was vigorously promoted through the massive circulation of popular rhymes trovas written by Bandarra. Even as late as the 19th century Sebastianist peasants in the Brazilian sertão believed that the kings would return to help them in their rebellion against the "godless" Brazilian republic.' Wikipedia.</p> <p>Pius V reigned from 1566 to 1572: his reign was largely pre-occupied with the war against the Turks - the battle of Lepanto was won the year after this publication. In 1570 Goa was attacked by the Indian army but the Portuguese successfully defended it. Also in 1570 Sebastian issued orders that the Brazilian Indians used for slavery should be released from captivity.</p> </p> .

Carlos foi caracterizado por diversas crises políticas. O rei era dotado de uma grande sensibilidade artística que o levou a dedicar a maior parte do seu tempo a um conjunto diferenciado de actividades destacando-se a pintura a ornitologia estudo das aves e a oceanografia. D. Carlos foi um apaixonado por fotografia sendo o autor de uma grande parte do espólio da família real. O rei foi um pintor de talento com grande capacidade expressiva e uma técnica apurada demonstrando uma profunda sensibilidade na temática marinha.

Outros membros da família real foram também alunos de desenho e de pintura de Casanova cujos ensinamentos influenciaram as obras artísticas de D. Maria Pia D. Luís e D. Amélia. Casanova fez parte do círculo restrito da Corte acompanhando-a nas suas viagens e estadias. Enrique Casanova foi um artista polivalente na sua produção cerâmica escultórica pictórica e gráfica. A aguarela foi a técnica mais utilizada na pintura. A sua mestria a técnica e o realismo das suas aguarelas possibilitou que um século mais tarde o Palácio Nacional da Ajuda as tomasse como fonte para a reconstituição das suas salas. No âmbito da ilustração colaborou também com a rainha D. Amélia e com o arquitecto Raul Lino nas ilustrações para o livro O Paço de Sintra 1903.</p>_x000d_<p>EN Dim.: In folio 32x25 cm.</p>_x000d_<p>Work in two volumes published in one in 1903 and 1907 respectively.</p>_x000d_<p>Binding: Contemporary half-calf with gilt tools on spine and boards.</p>_x000d_<p>Copy with both front and back covers of each booklet.

D.

In 1893 age 20 he decides to publish it under the title Illustrated Catalogue of the Birds of Portugal handing the scientific part to Albert Girard and to Enrique Casanova his drawing teacher the responsibility of the prints. Nevertheless D. Carlos was always present with his knowledge and art. The work was printed by Imprensa Nacional - Casa da Moeda in illustrated booklets each with 20 prints.

In one of those travels he met Amelia of Orleans princess of France and first daughter of the Count of Paris. After a short engagement he married her in Lisbon on May 1886. The reign of D. Carlos was marked by several political crises. The king was quite artistic which led to him doing several different activities mainly painting ornithology and oceanography. D.

Casanova also taught other members of the royal family and his teachings influenced the artistic works of D. Maria Pia D. Luís and D. Amélia. Casanova was part of the restrict circle of the court travelling with them. He was a versatile artist producing ceramics sculptures paintings and printings. Watercolour was his most used technique in painting.

1759ABC_48500Lisbon: Secretaria de estado 1759. Contemporary calf gold-tooled spine marbled endpapers. Folio 21.3 x 30.5 cm. With al large woodcut vignette showing the Portuguese coat of arms on the title page and on one of the divisional title pages and with woodcut decorated initials. A publication of 21 Portuguese documents plus 1 handwritten addition detailing the first stages of the expulsion of The Society of Jesus commonly known as the Jesuits. Published by the special order of King José I of Portugal this book was intended to explain and defend the expulsion citing the Jesuits control over the affairs of the indigenous population of Brazil the "Indios do Brasil" and their alleged involvement in the "horroroso insulto de 3 de Setembro do anno de 1758". This September Insult is a reference to the Távora Affair the attempted assassination of King José I which resulted in the execution of the entire Távora family including Josés mistress Teresa Leonor wife of the heir of the Távoras. Teresa Leonors personal confessor was Gabriel Malagrida a Jesuit missionary who had spent time in Brazil; Malagridas tenuous involvement indeed the Távora as a whole are often considered scapegoats was utilised in anti-Jesuit rhetoric. This copy is of particular interest as a manuscript addition in an elegant contemporary hand has been added to the verso of the title page for document XII the sentencing of the Távoras and presents a copy of the speech made by the Judge of the People to the king: "O Juiz do Povo tem a honra de pedir a N.Ex.a ponha na Real prezença de S. Mag. que oseu justifismo Edital foi lido pelo fiel Povo de Lisboa com muitas lágrimas que todo elle pede justiça contra humatentado de que não há exemplo nage delidade Portuguese e que para avingar espera com impaciência as Reas ordens de S. Mag; pois todo elle dezeja anciozamente derramar até a última gota de sangue pela glória e serviço do Mesmo". Recorded just below is the reply of the King: "Reposta de S. Mag.e. Cu não esperava menos de fidelidade dos meus fiéis Vassalos a quem heide corresponder como bom Rey e Pay".With contemporary manuscript notes in brown ink. Each section with separate pagination and occasionally with a divisional title page bound together as issued.

1774ABC_49591Lisbon 1774. Contemporary gold-tooled brown calf with a red morocco title label on the spine lettered in gold an elaborate border on both boards gold-tooled boards edges marbled edges. Folio. Manuscript on paper written in a neat secretarial hand. Rare contemporary manuscript of a royal letter addressed to the newly appointed Archbishop of Goa and Primate of the Orient the Augustinian hermit Dom Frei Francisco da Assunção e Brito just prior to his departure from Portugal to take up his new post. It outlines a set of ecclesiastic reforms arranged in six instructions. These were part of a series of major reforms introduced by the Portuguese king relating to the governance of the Estado da India: the same day royal instructions were also sent to the Governor and Captain General of Portuguese India D. José Pedro da Câmara regarding military political and economic reforms.The instructions to the Reverendo Arcebispo de Goa were drafted by the Marquês de Pombal Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo 1st Marquis of Pombal 1st Count of Oeiras 1699-1782. Carvalho was one of the most influential Portuguese statesmen of the eighteenth century: it was during his term as prime minister earlier in the reign of José I that Portugal had abolished slavery both in Portugal itself and in the Portuguese colonies in India but not however in other parts of its empire and that autos-de-fé and the Limpeza de Sangue had been phased out. He had also been largely responsible for having the Jesuit Order expelled from Portuguese domains and he does not conceal his antipathy towards the Order in these instructions to the new Archbishop. Of great interest also are Carvalhos insistence on the removal of any distinction between natives of India and natives of Portugal second and third instructions and his condemnation of the level of censorship imposed by the Inquisition and by the Jesuits fifth instruction.An edited version of the present letter and of the letter dated the same day addressed to Câmara were published much later on in Pangim in 1841. The printed version of the ecclesiastical letter includes neither the index nor the second four-page royal letter which are both present in this manuscript.With a contemporary ownership inscription "Pertence do snr. Dez. Anst. Felis Contreiras." on the second free flyleaf. The edges of the boards are lightly scuffed the boards have been scratched with some loss of material. The bookplate mounted on the second free flyleaf has been cut off the work is lightly browned and foxed throughout. Otherwise in good condition. hardcover
ABC_49338Rome: Marcello Silber 1514. 19th-century decorative paper with a pattern of green flowers. Small 4to ca. 19.5 x 14 cm. With the woodcut coat of arms of King Manuel I on the title page surrounded by a woodcut floral border. First and only edition of an important oration proudly announcing the Portuguese expansions in Africa Arabia and India with special mention of the conquest of Azamor present day Azemmour Morocco in August 1513. The oration was delivered to Pope Leo X 1475-1521 on 20 March 1514 to draw his attention to the latest Portuguese victories. No expenses were spared for this delivery as the oration was accompanied by lavish gifts brought from Asia including "Indian slaves Persian horses two leopards a young panther colourful parrots and a trained elephant . which caused a sensation as it bowed three times before the pope and squirted water from its trunk over the admiring multitude" Lach.The oration was delivered by Diego Pachego dates unknown "an eminent Portuguese jurist who gave the formal orations for his country in 1505 and 1514 on two of the most important occasions when the Portuguese announced to the papacy their progress in Asia" Lach. Pachego was a member of the Portuguese embassy of obedience intended to pay homage to a newly elected pope and hopefully gain his favour. As other countries especially Spain wanted to claim important regions such as the Spice Islands the support of the pope meant these would remain in Portuguese hands. King Manuel I 1469-1521 was highly aware of this so when Leo X became pope in 1513 he was determined that his mission of obedience would be such as had never been seen before. He sent all the riches that his Asian territories had to offer: the finest brocades the most precious metals the rarest gems and the most exotic animals including the white Indian elephant Hanno which was sent directly from India and became the pope's favorite pet. The present oration was also part of this event. It stressed the king's obedience to the pope and itemised his great successes in the East and in Africa. Despite its importance however the oration is quite rare as we have only been able to find 3 other copies in sales records of the past hundred years.The work is slightly browned with brown stains on the title page pp. 5-8 and pp. 13-14 a small hole in p. 5 affecting 1 letter a small water stain in the lower margin throughout.
