In English | Letter from Manuel de Sousa Camões sent to his mother, Sebastiana de Sousa Camões. The author tells his mother that he is in jail and expresses his wish for his mother to visit him. In the first quarter of the 19th century, extorsion letters became a very typical practice in the Limoeiro jail, near Lisbon. Prisoners, pretending to be highwaymen, contacted people outside jail, threatening them with all sorts of ruinous events in the case they didn't hand in a certain amount of money. The frequentness of this practice was possible also because of the political and social turmoil associated with these first years of Liberalism. |
