PALHA (Fernando)

A CARTA de Marca de João Ango: Exposição Summaria dos Factos Extrahida de Documentos Originaes e Ineditos . Lisboa: Imprensa Nacional, 1882.

110 pp.; 235 mm.

A small study by Fernando Palha on the episode of João Ango, a wealthy shipowner from Dieppe, enriched by speculation and piracy that, at the end of 1529 or beginning of 1530, one of his pirate ships was seized by ours when passing near Lisbon, which gave giving rise to a dispute between Portugal and France. Because of this episode, he sent D. João III, D. António de Ataíde to try with Francisco I to resolve the case. Fernando Palha bases his study on the correspondence between D.João and its validity from that period that the author acquired for his private library (see n. 4491 of the Fernando Palha Catalogue).
