Summary "O Marquez de Pombal" by Manuel Emídio Garcia is a critical-historical study written in the late 19th century. This book delves into the life and reforms of the influential Portuguese statesman Sebastião José de Carvalho e Mello, known as the Marquess of Pombal, in the context of the political and social changes occurring in Europe during that era. The book likely encompasses aspects of political science, historical analysis, and biography, focusing on the Marquess's role in shaping modern Portugal. In "O Marquez de Pombal," Garcia examines the multifaceted impact of Pombal's administration during the reign of King José I. The text highlights Pombal's sweeping reforms that sought to modernize the Portuguese economy, military, and education while curbing the power of the nobility and the church. Through critical assessments, Garcia outlines Pombal's strategies—such as expelling the Jesuits and implementing significant economic policies—that aimed to empower the state and promote civil liberties, hoping to better position Portugal within the international landscape. The book not only reflects on Pombal's achievements but also critiques the backlash he faced from conservative factions, portraying him as a pivotal figure in the struggle for Portuguese independence and progress.
