O ideário de nobreza sofreu várias mutações ao longo do Antigo Regime, sendo variável de acordo com o contexto e com a espacialidade, além de não haver um único entendimento sobre o tema. A pluralidade de nobrezas do ultramar pode ser verificada na obra Frutas do Brasil, especificamente no capítulo Do estado da nobreza, do frei Antônio do Rosário, o qual vivenciou a sociedade açucareira de Pernambuco por quinze anos, entre 1689 e 1704. Este trabalho busca compreender os diferentes significados de nobreza, em especial em Pernambuco do início do século XVIII, incidindo ainda sobre os diferentes modelos de ascensão e de legitimação social no Ultramar. Para tanto, esse artigo analisará parte da obra Frutas do Brasil, uma fonte rica sobre a hierarquia e a composição social daquela época, cruzando informações dos tratados jurídicos e de fontes do Arquivo Histórico Ultramarino, do Arquivo da Universidade de Coimbra e da Biblioteca Nacional de Lisboa.

O presente artigo recorreu ao conceito de quasi-sovereignty de Laura Benton para analisar como as monarquias espanhola e portuguesa, entre os séculos XVI e XVII, empregavam estratégias muito semelhantes para neutralizar a alta nobreza radicada no Novo Mundo. Os monarcas outorgaram privilégios, mas também criaram mecanismos para erodir a autonomia que esses nobres desfrutavam no ultramar. O presente artigo baseou-se em ampla bibliografia para inventariar não somente os diferentes controles régios, mas também as estratégias empregadas pelos nobres para reagir contra a perda de seu patrimônio material e político. A comparação entre os nobres portugueses e espanhóis permitiu identificar como o controle sobre a nobreza envolvia diferentes instâncias da administração no âmbito imperial e local. As trajetórias demonstram ainda a pressão de diferentes grupos sociais contra os nobres e seus privilégios. A disputa entre o governo imperial, o governo local, os nobres e os diferentes estratos da sociedade demonstram a debilidade da soberania régia no ultramar.

O que aprendemos examinando um colégio para preparar a nobreza portuguesa, no período do Marquês de Pombal? Hoje seria inaceitável usar verbas públicas para financiar um colégio restrito à nobreza. Ou punir com cadeia a indisciplina. Ou aceitar que alguns livros eram proibidos. Em compensação, colégios públicos podiam cobrar dos alunos. Dos reitores, exigiam-se cultura e dotes morais. O mesmo com sua equipe. O regime de estudos era severíssimo. Os professores deveriam explicitar a pedagogia usada e sempre levar os alunos a aplicar na prática o que ensinavam.

Resumo Este artigo analisa o conceito de nobreza na cultura luso-brasileira desde o século XVII até o XIX. A abordagem prioriza a continuidade em detrimento da ideia moderna de transição. A opção por um amplo recorte temporal visa explorar contextos históricos em que distintas linguagens políticas sobre a “nobreza” foram pertinentes. A tese central é que, apesar das semânticas liberal e democráticas disponíveis no Brasil oitocentista, o conceito de nobreza típico do corporativismo ibérico continua a disputar o contexto linguístico da época. Essa investigação se baseia na história do discurso político e usa como fontes jornais, correspondências e obras historiográficas. Particular atenção é aqui concedida ao pensamento do historiador Francisco Adolfo de Varnhagen, principal defensor da Alta Nobreza hereditária.

This paper seeks to understand the verifiable presence of "knights" and "squires" in the municipal council meetings in Porto in the late 14th and early 15th centuries, using the books of "Atas de Vereação" of the period under analysis, but also by crossing with other documentary sources. We try to understand how this reality coexisted with the privilege that the city had long held and for which it permanently fought for centuries, at least until the reign of D. Manuel I, which prevented the residence and/or stay of noblemen within the walls of the city. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Resumo O debate sobre as leis agrárias e os limites da propriedade privada colocam em campos opostos partidários da nobreza e da plebe. Os primeiros acusam os proponentes de reformas agrárias de avançarem sobre a propriedade legítima, causando o fim da república romana, enquanto os últimos denunciam o caráter predatório das aquisições à custa do bem público e da liberdade. Este artigo procura mostrar que no capítulo 37, Livro I, dos Discursos sobre a década de Tito Lívio, Nicolau Maquiavel apresenta sua versão dessa controvérsia, adotando o princípio retórico in utramque partem e explorando o dilema gerado pela consideração da ambição nos assuntos humanos, para recusar uma solução mediada entre as duas partes.

This article proposes some historiographic considerations on the social stances of some governors who took part in the Portuguese conquests between 1796 and 1803. Firstly, I address the notion of honour and nobility which the Portuguese bourgeoisie supported as opposed to what they called “the ennobled”, that is, the people who ascended to the Crown for their “talent” and university degrees; secondly, I dispute the recruitment of governors and vice-kings, which, historiography says, were positions that gave access to the highest of Portuguese aristocracy and were paid with noble titles by the king. Lastly, I point out how university degrees became an additional – and valuable – asset for the selection of captains general, and I also analyse the first generation of governors – formed after the educational reforms undertaken by Marquis of Pombal –, which contributed to the overseas conquests at the turn of the 18th to the 19th century.

A ermida de Nossa Senhora dos Remédios, localizada junto ao solar da família Canto, na cidade de Angra (Ilha Terceira), foi construída por António Pires do Canto, um dos filhos do Provedor das Armadas Pero Anes do Canto, em meados do século XVI. Desde a sua fundação, esta ermida esteve ligada a uma das famílias mais influentes da ilha Terceira, sendo local de numerosos eventos de natureza litúrgico-musical. O presente estudo caracteriza a atividade musical da ermida a partir de uma perspectiva das relações estabelecidas com as outras instituições religiosas da cidade e a sua presença musical numa das casas mais nobres de Angra.

Resumo Este trabalho pretende esclarecer a arquitetura jurídico-política dos títulos, honras, ordens militares, distinções e mercês pecuniárias, acerca do pretenso direito de nobreza na cultura jurídico-política brasileira do século XIX. Nesse sentido, ele busca compreender como o direito brasileiro previa essas recompensas honoríficas, e se a elas se vinculava algum tipo de privilégio jurídico. As fontes principais são a Constituição Política do Império do Brasil (1824), os comentários doutrinários ao texto constitucional e os Anais do Parlamento Brasileiro. A interpretação dessas fontes permite concluir que, de fato, o sistema constitucional imperial repugnava a existência de privilégios de nascimento, sem, contudo, ter conseguido impedir, totalmente, que resquícios de direitos de Antigo Regime resistissem por algum tempo na legislação ordinária do Império.

During the Iberian Middle Age it was thought that the superiority of the nobles over the lower people was related mostly to blood: the nobles, because of their "elevated blood", would be "naturally" compelled to seek honor, while the plebeians, due to their "lower blood", would tend towards vices. Such was the opinion and custom of the audience of the chronicles written by Gomes Eanes de Zurara in the fifteenth century in Portugal. Observing such fact and following rhetorical precepts, Zurara articulates the good ascendancy with a virtuous or vicious conduct to, respectively, praise or vituperate the nobles as characters of their historical narratives.

Este artigo procura refl etir sobre a relação entre a aristocracia medieval portuguesa e a cavalaria, na sua dimensão plural de categoria social e de ideologia que viria a caraterizar os grupos dominantes na hierarquia social medieva. Interessa discutir a importância dos milites/cavaleiros quer na sociedade dos séculos XII e XIII, quer nos séculos XIV e XV, evidenciando, em ambos os períodos, a polissemia desse estatuto e relacionando-o simultaneamente com as etapas de construção e articulação da ideologia cavaleiresca em Portugal. Importa também ponderar o surgimento dos símbolos e dos rituais da cavalaria enquanto autoimagem dos diferentes quadrantes da aristocracia: dos infantes, da alta nobreza ou dos cavaleiros propriamente ditos. Num plano mais lato, este estudo tem como objetivo refl etir acerca da importância da cavalaria para a coesão mas também para a renovação do grupo aristocrático.

In this work we will discuss the importance of the concept of nobility for a particular group, the magistrates. Unlike the other royal officials due to the formation in Law, they stood out from the other groups for exercising and interpreting the laws and for representing the most visible face of the Monarchs, Justice. The magistrates were participants of a larger and heterogeneous group in their obligations and personal interests, that is, of the literate ones and that they influenced all the Portuguese modern period. Over time, the indispensability of placing the concept of nobility and its subdivisions in order to construct the profile, the careers, the hierarchies and strategies / stratagems of these individuals and the other constituent groups of the Portuguese administration and its conquests arose.

This research addresses to power relations built in the province of Minas Gerais throughout the 19th century, with the central object of analysis the nobleness of the major political groups from Minas Gerais. Starting from a review on Brazilian nobiliary studies, we opted to highlight some of the main theories and intepretive analysis, with the intent to posteriorly deepen the titrations of nobles from Minas Gerais as a powerful indicatory of the construction of power relations in one of the major Brazilian provinces in the 19th century. The analysis on the nobility from Minas Gerais can be revealed as an indicative of settlement processes and construction of power relations on the Brazilian State.

O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar o Inventário Geral dos papéis de António Xavier de Miranda Henriques, um inventário post-mortem produzido em 1815 por João Filipe da Cruz para catalogar o arquivo na posse de António Xavier, patriarca eleito de Lisboa e filho do 2º Conde de Sandomil. Na primeira secção analisam-se os contextos e objetivos da produção do inventário, a sua estrutura interna e a sua história custodial e arquivística. Na segunda secção examina-se o arquivo inventariado e as possibilidades de reconstrução virtual do acervo dos Miranda Henriques, desagregado em 1815.

One of the peculiarities of Count D. Pedro's Book of Lineages is precisely that it is not only a genealogy. This feature alone makes this kind of “chronicle of medieval noble memory” of Portugal one of the richest and most interesting sources with regard to the knowledge of the aristocracy. The book contains diverse narratives of varying nature, from historical narratives to anecdotes and mythical ones. The latter are capital to the understanding strategies and resources used by the nobility to assert their power. For the most part, they are short texts, but full of symbolism, of course, by their internal constitutions, which tend to explain the origin of a renowned lineage. These stories are not unique to the Portuguese nobility, the mythical ones then seem to report to other counterparts that circulated in much of Europe, composing a common cultural background. There are pages about families from all over the Iberian Peninsula, Galician, Castilian, Navarras and Portuguese. We intend here to analyze how these narratives, through the role of women, built a mythical background legitimacy for the aristocracy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article analyzes the formation of the colonial nobility through royal decrees, from the concessions of the title of Nobleman, of the titles of Knight of the Military Orders, and of coats of arms. These honors, however, did not originate the nobility of blood. In fact, few families were able to maintain the honors and privileges of nobility for a long time. Overseas, the "local nobility" did not rely on titles, but on assets, on the control of the local administration posts and, above all, on military ranks. Using documents and historiography, the article intends to prove that the titles were not a prerequisite for upward social mobility within colonial society. In general, only at the end of their successful lives did the overseas subjects claim and receive the honors of the monarchy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

O presente trabalho propõe tecer algumas considerações sobre o “ethos nobiliárquico” – ou, em outras palavras, o “viver a lei da nobreza – no Antigo Regime português. Reconhece-se que, a despeito de documentos da época e leis régias, escasseiam, aqui ou ali, fontes coevas que descrevam, de maneira sistemática, os nobres em Portugal. Em razão disso, para desenvolver uma discussão dos grupos nobiliárquicos em Portugal no Antigo Regime, concentramos nossa análise na tradição genealógica, em especial, na obra de Caetano de Sousa de Memórias históricas e genealógica dos Grandes de Portugal.

A expansão portuguesa atraiu a Portugal muitos estrangeiros em busca de fortuna e estatuto ou, simplesmente, de uma vida melhor do que aquela que tinham nos seus países de origem. Lisboa tornou-se num empório comercial dinâmico aonde chegavam e de onde partiam pessoas e mercadorias. Verdadeiro ponto de passagem, assistiu à fixação de muitas famílias estrangeiras que viriam a assumir-se como portuguesas e a destacar-se na nossa história. Um desses casos foi o da família Sinel de Cordes, objeto do presente artigo que pretende testemunhar o processo de fixação, integração e ascensão social desta família e demonstrar que a nobreza portuguesa do Antigo Regime era permeável, permitindo a inclusão de estrangeiros de origens mercantis. Os Sinel de Cordes percorreram um longo caminho, conseguindo, após enriquecerem através dos negócios ultramarinos, alcançar a nobreza e tornar-se secretários da Câmara Real, um dos cargos mais importantes da alta burocracia do Estado.
