Summary "A Verdade a Passo Lento ou Guerra do Escaravelho contra a Borboleta..." by an anonymous author is a critical pamphlet written during the early 19th century. This book engages in a satirical defense of the Carmelite monks against accusations made by a publication called "Borbolêta," which suggests their cruelty and wrongdoing. The text highlights themes of truth, justice, and the battles between rumor and reality, reflecting the social and political tensions of its time. The narrative unfolds through a series of letters addressing the editor of "Correio do Porto," where the author vehemently defends the reputation of the Carmelites. The letters critique the sensational accusations made against them, particularly focusing on the case of Fr. Gabriel de Santa Theresa, who was imprisoned for theft. Throughout the text, the author employs biting satire and rhetorical questions to unravel the inconsistencies in the claims made by "Borbolêta," ultimately portraying it as an instrument of deceit and injustice. The author aims to dismantle the damaging narrative surrounding the monks, advocating for their innocence and moral integrity while asserting that the majority of the accusations are baseless and malicious.
