Mário Brandão (Sernancelhe, 1879 - Coimbra, 1966), professor at the Faculty of Arts of the University of Coimbra and director of its Archive, dedicated decades of research to the critical edition of documentary sources relating to the University and the reign of King John III, and was also the author of, among other works, The Inquisition and the Professors of the College of Arts and D. Lopo de Almeida and the University . The Documents of King John III bring together transcriptions of royal decrees and scattered documentation from the reign of King John III (1521-1557), with particular emphasis on matters relating to the reform of the University of Coimbra – definitively transferred from Lisbon to Coimbra in 1537 – and the establishment of the College of Arts. They constitute one of the fundamental documentary instruments for the study of the cultural and university policy of the reign of King John III and the reform of studies in Portugal in the 16th century.
