In English | Private letter from Diogo Gomes [merchant] to Rui Lopes, physician. The author justifies a payment delay and tells various news that has received from Portugal. Several letters can be found in the collection "Corpo Cronológico", a documental fund under the custody of the National Archive of Torre do Tombo. It is a collection composed mostly by documentation of judicial and administrative nature, from 1161 to 1696. After the earthquake of 1755 many scattered documents were incorporated in this fund. Just like the name suggests, the main criterion of organization within the Corpo Cronológico is the documents' date. This letter, from a supposed merchant that lived in Antwerp, is related to a physician living in London, with a Jewish origin. This doctor, accused for being a spy at the service of the king Felipe II, from Spain, was condemned to death. |
