Paris. 1966. - SILBERT (Albert) LE PORTUGAL Méditerranéen a la Fin de l’Ancien Régime XVIIIe - Début du XIXe Siècle . Contribution à l’histoire agrire comparée. Paris: S.E.V.P.E.N., 1966. 2 v.; 250 mm. This study presents a comparative geo-historical analysis of agrarian history between two Portuguese regions with contrasting characteristics, Beira Baixa and Alentejo, examining property structures, cultivation systems, fallow land, common lands, livestock farming, and the influence of economic conditions on these structures during the transition from the Old Regime to liberalism. Based on a vast documentary and cartographic database, it has become an indispensable reference work for the agrarian, economic, and social history of Portugal in the 18th and 19th centuries, and is still cited today in studies on the Portuguese rural economy of the Old Regime. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
