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.

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.

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.

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.
