| Summary | "Cultura e opulencia do Brasil por suas drogas e minas: com varias noticias…" by André João Antonil is a historical account written in the early 18th century. The work provides significant insights into Brazil's economic landscape, detailing the cultivation of sugar and tobacco, the extraction of gold and silver, and the associated wealth and opulence stemming from these resources. It is particularly aimed at those interested in the development of Brazil's agricultural and mining industries during this period, reflecting the interests of colonial powers. The opening of the book introduces its purpose, which is to inform readers about the wealth of Brazil through practical knowledge related to its primary commodities—sugar, tobacco, and precious metals. It begins with a narrative about a valuable book that a deceased councilor cherished and sought to preserve. The editor expresses a desire to resurrect this "precious jewel" for educators, economists, and Brazilians, highlighting the historical significance of Brazil as a center of rich agricultural products and mineral wealth. The prologue sets the tone for a meticulous examination of the operations involved in these industries, likely focusing on practical details beneficial for landowners and workers alike in the burgeoning colonial economy.
