This work delves into significant events in Portuguese history, particularly focusing on the life and contributions of Sebastião José de Carvalho e Mello, also known as the Marquez de Pombal. The book aims to provide insight into his transformative administration and the political landscape of Portugal during his tenure. The opening of the book introduces Josephina Pinto Carneiro Perestrello's intent to examine the historical context surrounding the Marquez de Pombal and his notable reforms. Setting the stage for a narrative that intertwines biographical elements with the sociopolitical climate, the author references the significant changes Pombal brought to Portugal, such as the expulsion of the Jesuits and efforts toward national progress after the devastating earthquake of 1755. The chapter emphasizes Pombal's character as a formidable leader, his educational and economic reforms, and the challenges he faced in revitalizing a nation in decline, thus framing the Marquez as a pivotal figure in Portuguese history.
