Portuguese and Brazilian History The William B. Greenlee Collection William B. Greenlee (1872-1953) was a Newberry Library Trustee whose generosity greatly enhanced the Library's collections. Greenlee was an interested amateur student who studied Portuguese and Brazilian history in the Ayer Collection, meanwhile collecting books on his own. In 1937 he transferred his Portuguese library to the Newberry, where he worked among his books, selecting new titles and editing a volume of voyages to Brazil for the Hakluyt Society. The collection, numbering over 10,000 volumes, is particularly strong in these areas: Periodicals, gazeteers, bibliographies and collections of documents Travel literature and special subjects relating to social life and customs Biography General Portuguese history and literature, especially colonial expansion Local history and description While purposely not focussing on first editions of old and rare books, the Greenlee Collection has been built into one of the world's finest working libraries of Luso-Brasilian research materials. In addition to print material, the Greenlee collection contains 226 Portuguese manuscripts, 1660-1815. The acquisition of over 15,000 16th through 19th century Portuguese leaflets, pamphlets and booklets in recent years, has added further research depth to this great collection. Greenlee collection acquisitions to 1978 are described in A Catalogue of the William B. Greenlee Collection of Portuguese History and Literature and the Portuguese Materials in the Newberry Library

Tiradentes Under Construction Joaquim Jose da Silva Xavier , also known as Tiradentes (Tooth Puller) was the leader of the first organized movement against Portuguese rule in Brasil in 1789. He was born in 1748 near Sao Joao del Rei in Minas Gerais . He was reasonably well educated and worked as a physician, merchant and dentist. Influenced by the American Revolution and the French Philosophes he organized the Inconfidencia Mineira in Minas Gerais advocating complete independence from Portugal. An attempt by Portuguese officials to collect back taxes (not too different from the collection of tea taxes in the 13 American colonies) touched off the call for the rebellion. The crown quickly and easily crushed the uprising, jailing the conspirators and brutally executing Tiradentes two years later. At his trial he nobly and eloquently defended the republican cause. He was publicly hanged in Rio on April 21, 1792. To frighten the population into complete submission Portuguese authorities ordered his body to be cut into pieces and to be prominently displayed along posts in city boulevards. Tiradentes martyrdom made him a national hero. Thirty years after his death the king designate of Portugal declared Brasil's independence and became its first emperor. April 21 is a national holiday.

Brazilian History BACK The Inconfidência Mineira He was hanged as a scapegoat of the Inconfidência Mineira and the image that people have in mind today was only created to make a martyr out of him in the fight for independence, thus stimulating the subsequent attempts to break away from Portuguese rule. To understand this a bit better, we need to return to how the story actually begins. At that time, Portugal's economy was in a shambles and expenses were covered by extracting all the riches it could from its colonies - among which was Brazil. The Portuguese crown demanded one fifth of the all the gold mined, and the state of Minas Gerais was the largest mining region in the country. However, in mid 18 th century, the quantity of gold extracted from the Brazilian mines was much less that it was before and this made the Marquês de Pombal establish a quota of 100 arrobas (approximately 1,500 kilos) of gold per miner, regardless of the total production - which barely reached the 100 arrobas demanded. Faced with this scenario, the government of Minas Gerais imposed, in 1763, the so-called "derrama": the common people would have to make up for the difference of the quantity of gold demanded.

With the focus on history and rediscovery, the commemorations will not only recognize the accomplishments Brazil has made on a national level but also on an international level. Many countries have contributed to the development of Brazil and the focus of the commemorations. Jamie Sundquist Portugal was well known in Europe for their ship building and technological advances in the early 14th century. With the invention of instruments such as the astrolabe and the compass, that would allow a ship to travel for extended periods of time and accurately calculate the location of a ship on open water, the design of the ships became an important component of Portuguese exploration. In order to withstand rough water and difficult conditions on the Atlantic Ocean the first ships were constructed with long masts and rounded sails that were extremely tall to provide the most resistance. The sails were positioned so that the ship would be easy to maneuver in the event of attack. For this same reason cannons also were incorporated in the first designs. To accommodate the demand for commercial use, the builders eliminated the passenger quarters to create more room for cargo and artillery. Portugal was the only country in the 1500s to use wood for shipbuilding. The bow, the stern and the hull were built from hard pine. The sleeping quarters were made of chestnut and oak, however rarely were the inner walls constructed of this soft wood because it would not withstand the temperate ocean waters. Early in the 16th century more exotic woods were used as ships were bringing back wood from the New World. A wood shortage in the mid-16th century, which compromised the quality of the ships caused King Don João II to begin regulating the farmers who supplied the wood.
