Episodio da Guerra Civil A MARIA DA FONTE

Miguel J. T. Mascarenhas

REF.35594

Year 1873

Porto; Typographia Lusitana; In-8º of 302 (2) pages; Hardcover

A Portuguese Tale is a 19th-century historical novel. The work immerses the reader in the turbulent context of the popular revolt known as Maria da Fonte, which broke out in 1846 against fiscal measures and administrative reforms imposed by the Costa Cabral government, especially those affecting religious customs and rural life. The book combines fictional narrative with real events, portraying popular characters and political figures involved in the insurrection. With an engaging and detailed style, Mascarenhas constructs a plot marked by intrigue, drama, and social critique, revealing the impact of the civil war on the lives of Portuguese communities. The symbolic protagonist, Maria da Fonte, represents the spirit of resistance of the people of Minho, especially the women, who played an active role in the revolt. Beyond its literary value, the work is a testament to the collective memory of one of the most significant episodes in 19th-century Portuguese political history. The narrative offers a unique perspective on the conflicts between central power and rural populations, and on the role of women as agents of social transformation. This copy has a modest binding with signs of use, and the core is in good condition.

"Illustrated with the portraits of the most illustrious patriots of that time and enlarged with magnificent paintings depicting the most remarkable historical facts described in the work composed and designed by the distinguished National Artists Joaquim Victorino Ribeiro and Columbano Bordallo Pinheiro . "
“(...) The work undertaken by the auctor, which among other excellent qualities possesses that of being modest, was a company that only firm will, unbelievable work and superior intelligence could carry out. Having studied neither the time of 1820 nor the preceding period in which the spirits prepared for the great liberal evolution, the auctor renders valuable national service in carrying out this work, and even more so by the broad plan which he followed and the method he adopted. Editors making an artistic edition, with an accentuated national stamp, provide another service of undeniable value and make the work a true patriotic monument (...). ”
This work is considered fundamental for the study of this important event in the history of Portugal, illustrated with numerous lithographs printed in extra-text representing Portuguese kings and other relief figures, composed by national artists such as João Marques da Silva Oliveira, Columbano Bordallo Pinheiro, Caetano Moreira, Joaquim Vitorino Ribeiro.

1stEdition

London; James Fraser; In-8º of 2 volumes with XIII(1)333(3) and 384 pages; Illustrated; Bound "...under the orders of His Imperial Majesty Dom Pedro, Duke of Braganza." A detailed historical account of the military campaign led by Dom Pedro, Duke of Braganza, during the Portuguese Civil War. The author, a British officer who participated directly in the expedition, describes the events that culminated in the attempt to restore Dona Maria II's rights to the throne, contested by Dom Miguel's absolutist government. The work follows the organization of liberal troops in the Azores, the landing in northern Portugal, the capture of the city of Porto, and the fighting during the ensuing siege. In addition to military strategies and the difficulties faced, Hodges offers observations on the political context, local customs, and the morale of the forces involved. The book is considered a valuable source for understanding the Portuguese Civil War, revealing not only the behind-the-scenes story of the liberal campaign but also a foreign perspective on one of the most turbulent periods in 19th-century Portuguese history. Illustrated with a fold-out map of the country around the city of Porto. Copies in half-English bindings with faint signs of use, the pages in good condition.

An important work of Portuguese travel and pilgrimage literature, originally published in Lisbon in 1593, representing one of the most significant Portuguese accounts of the Holy Land during the sixteenth century.

Maranhão; Typographia do Progresso, de B. de Mattos & A.; In-8.º of XI, 349, 52 pages; Bound.

Rare first edition of one of the most important nineteenth-century works devoted to Brazilian independence in the province of Maranhão, written by Luiz Antonio Vieira da Silva (1828–1889), later Viscount of Vieira da Silva.

The volume includes an important collection of historical documents occupying the final 52 pages, considerably enhancing its research value. Its bibliographical importance is acknowledged in specialised reference works, including Rubens Borba de Moraes's Bibliographia Brasiliana and the catalogue of works on Brazilian independence held by the Brazilian Historical and Geographical Institute.

Year 1801

1stEdition

Lisbon; Na Regia Officina Typografica; In-4.º of 13(1) pages; Softcover.

Important official Portuguese edition of the Treaty of Badajoz, signed on 6 June 1801, which brought an end to the War of the Oranges between Portugal and Spain during the French Revolutionary Wars. Concluded by the representatives of Prince Regent João and King Charles IV of Spain, the treaty established peace between the two Iberian monarchies under conditions unfavourable to Portugal, including the cession of Olivença to the Spanish Crown and the closure of Portuguese ports to British vessels.

The treaty is a fundamental document for understanding Portuguese foreign policy at the beginning of the nineteenth century and the pressures exerted upon Portugal by Napoleonic France and its Spanish ally, foreshadowing the conflicts that would culminate in the French invasions. The question of sovereignty over Olivença, arising from this agreement, remained one of the most enduring diplomatic disputes between the two countries. This edition is recorded in Special List 341: The Peninsular War, by Richard C. Ramer, pages 77–78, where it is distinguished from another contemporary folio printing. A work of particular interest for the history of Portuguese diplomacy and Iberian relations.

Rare Portuguese edition of a political work by the French general Charles-François du Périer Dumouriez (1739–1823), a prominent military figure of the French Revolutionary Wars who, after commanding the revolutionary armies and achieving important victories, broke with the National Convention and became an opponent of the French regime. In this work, he addresses the French nation and Europe with a critical assessment of Napoleon Bonaparte, denouncing his political and military ambitions and the dangers of the expansion of Napoleonic power.

Printed in Lisbon in 1808, the year of the French invasion and the Portuguese uprising against the occupation, this edition belongs to the anti-Napoleonic political literature circulated during the Peninsular War. The work is recorded in the Napoleonic bibliography of the Portuguese Army Library, which identifies Luís Caetano Altina de Campos as its Portuguese translator. An interesting historical document concerning political propaganda and the circulation of ideas during a particularly turbulent period in European history.

Year 1922

1stEdition

Lisbon; João Romano Torres & C.ª Editores; In-8.º of 319(1) pages; Illustrated; Bound.

First edition of this historical-literary narrative devoted to the final years of Joaquim Pedro Quintela, 2nd Baron of Quintela and 1st Count of Farrobo, a prominent figure in nineteenth-century Lisbon society, celebrated for his immense fortune, artistic patronage and the festivities and performances held on his properties. Eduardo de Noronha himself presents the work not strictly as a novel, but as a romanticised narrative based on historical episodes, family traditions and anecdotes of the period.

The final volume in the author's series devoted to the Count of Farrobo, following «O Conde de Farrobo e a Sua Época», «Millionário Artista» and «A Sociedade do Delirio». Focusing on the Count's financial decline and final years, it also provides a curious portrait of nineteenth-century Portuguese society.
