reference work for the portuguese reader here s an interview josé madruga and i gave about our forthcoming book and here is a very short note we wrote henrique leitão e josé madruga carvalho 1582 o

by fernando oliveira is an extended compilation of information on nautical matters it has been called an encyclopaedia of sea and navigation and this designation is not incorrect ars nautica is the last of the great portuguese nautical texts of the sixteenth century still waiting for a modern edition it was recently translated to portuguese i am presently reviewing this excellent translation looking at the technical aspects and i will also prepare some notes luana giurgevich and i have been engaged for some years on a wide research of old libraries in portugal our initial objective was to study the circulation of scientific books in portugal but we soon realized that a broader approach was needed we ended up examining in detail the contents of hundreds of old libraries the result was our 900 page book clavis bibliothecarum catálogos e inventários de livrarias de instituições religiosas em portugal até 1834 an exhaustive list of nearly 1 000 catalogues of ca 400 ancient libraries plus hundreds of related documents this book was awarded a menção honrosa of the prize lusitania história academia portuguesa da história 2016 here s a review to the book by mário santiago de carvalho
