A Lucta Civil Brazileira e o Sebastianismo Portuguez by Costa
"A Lucta Civil Brazileira e o Sebastianismo Portuguez" by Cunha e Costa is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work delves into the complexities of the Brazilian Civil War and the supporting role played by Portuguese monarchists, notably reflecting on the rivalry between republican interests in Brazil and the monarchist factions that sought to restore former regimes. The focus is on the tensions arising from immigration and political
affiliations of Portuguese expatriates in Brazil, as well as the misinterpretations of their sentiments regarding democratic institutions. The opening of the text presents a critical view of the deteriorating political climate in Portugal as it intersects with developments in Brazil during the early 1890s. The author describes the unrest stemming from a rebellion within the Brazilian Navy, led by Custodio de Mello, which found encouragement among Portuguese Sebastianists. It illustrates the manipulation by both monarchist and republican press outlets, emphasizing the challenges faced by journalists who strive for truth amidst rampant misinformation. The section sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the political dynamics at play, presenting a call for transparency and patriotism in the face of corruption and political degradation within both Portuguese and Brazilian contexts.
