Ports Opening. Royal Charter. Lexicon. Representation.Abstract
In this article, we examine the assumptions, the content and the objectives of Dom João de Bragança’s royal charter, which was written in Bahia on January 28, 1808, in the light of the political and theological alliance in the Kingdom of Portugal, under the intricate royal administration and the old trade relationship between the Portuguese Crown and England. In the analysis of the texts, we intend to rescue their original readability in a way to demonstrate if the lexicon used by senders was related to the royal mentality. This reinforces the king’s authority, in convergence with the premises of the Catholic Church.Downloads
