ABRANTES (Ventura Ledesma). O PATRIMÓNIO da Sereníssima Casa de Bragança em Olivença. Lisboa. 1954. - ABRANTES (Ventura Ledesma) O PATRIMÓNIO da Sereníssima Casa de Bragança em Olivença . Seguido de apontamentos monográficos e notas etnográficas com um prefácio do Coronel Abílio Valdez Passos e Sousa. Lisboa: Revista Ocidente, 1954. 564 pp.: il.; 250 mm. This work, profusely illustrated with the author's iconographic collection, brings together the documentary survey of the patrimony that the House of Braganza possessed in Olivenza and its territory – properties, rents, chapels and seigniorial rights – followed by monographic notes and ethnographic observations on the town and its customs, including collections of popular Olivenza verses. It constitutes one of the most important documentary and ethnographic sources for the study of Olivenza as a territory of Portuguese sovereignty until 1801, and for the so-called ”Olivenza Question”. Highly regarded. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
