| Summary |
"Os deputados brasileiros nas Côrtes Geraes de 1821" by M. E. Gomes de Carvalho is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the political landscape of Brazil during a significant period of transition, focusing on the role and influence of Brazilian representatives in the Cortes (parliament) of Portugal. The text likely delves into the complexities surrounding Brazilian independence and the interplay between Brazilian and Portuguese interests. The opening of the book presents an insightful examination of the socio-political environment in Portugal and Brazil leading up to the revolutionary sentiments of 1820. It highlights the dire economic conditions in Portugal, the growing discontent among various social classes, and the pivotal role of the Brazilian deputies in advocating for their homeland's interests within the Cortes. Key events are described, such as the calls for the return of the monarch and the response from Brazilian provinces, emphasizing the tensions and aspirations that culminated in a quest for independence. This introductory section sets the stage for a deeper analysis of the profound implications of these historical events on Brazilian identity and governance.
