Complete collection of 14 volumes from the Cycle of the Foundation of Nationality of the Annals of the Portuguese Academy of History, published as Commemorative Publications of the Double Centenary of the Foundation and Restoration of Portugal. The Portuguese Academy of History was created in 1936 by the Estado Novo regime, considered the heir to the Royal Academy of Portuguese History founded by King John V in 1720, with the motto ”Restituet Omnia” (Restore All). The commemorations of the Double Centenary – the 800th anniversary of the founding of Portugal (1139) and the 300th anniversary of the Restoration of Independence (1640) – constituted the largest national history publishing program promoted by the Portuguese State in the 20th century. The Academy organized its publications into two thematic cycles: the Cycle of the Founding of Nationality, centered on the origins of the kingdom and the figure of Afonso Henriques, and the Cycle of the Restoration of Portugal, dedicated to the period of the Restoration of 1640. Each volume brings together historical communications and studies by Portuguese academics and foreign collaborators, illustrated in extratext with engravings, black and white photographs, archaeological drawings and facsimiles of documents, printed on high-quality coated paper. The themes addressed throughout the 14 volumes of the cycle include the origins of the County of Portugal, the figure and reign of Afonso Henriques, the Reconquista, medieval ecclesiastical and monastic institutions, the law and legal institutions of the nascent kingdom, the economy and society in the 12th and 13th centuries, the formation of borders, and relations with neighboring kingdoms. Among the contributors are some of the most prominent Portuguese medievalists and historians of the time. Estimated. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
