[1602-1603]. Cópia da carta de Isabel Mendes para o filho, João Nunes Baião.

Autor(es) Isabel Mendes      
Destinatário(s) João Nunes Baião      
In English

Copy of a family letter from Isabel Mendes to her son João Nunes Baião, a prisoner by the Inquisition.

The author sends news on the sales she has been doing on behalf of her son, the addressee, while he is in prison. She tells him all the items she has sent him and gives advice on how he should close his writings to her, so that she knows whether or not someone has opened them.

Thirty of the letters exchanged between Isabel Mendes and her son, João Nunes Baião, imprisoned in Goa since 1600, were seized by the inquisitors in 1603 and included in the proceedings against the mother. Isabel Mendes had written five of them, and her son, the other twenty-five. A complete net of servants and slaves had contributed to the correspondence exchange. After the system was discovered, Isabel Mendes was arrested and the letters were transcribed by the Goa Inquisition and sent to Lisbon. The cipher that some of them exhibited was replaced by alphabetic expressions.

If there is no translation for the letter itself, you may copy the text (while using the view 'Standardization') and paste it to an automatic translator of your choice.
