In English | News letter from Cipriano RibeiroFreire, plenipotentiary minister in Philadelphia, to Dom João de Almeida de Melo e Castro, the Portuguese plenipotentiary minister in London. The author sends a detailed account of his first, rather negative, impressions of the United States. João de Almeida de Melo e Castro (1756-1814), the 5th Count of the House of Galveias, was a Portuguese diplomat who, given the pluri-continental nature of the monarchy he represented, had to be very subtle, while dealing with foreign powers, in the management of the resulting Portuguese political ambiguity. He was a plenipotentiary minister in London, the Hague and Rome and an ambassador in Vienna. After 1801 he had different government functions: foreign affairs minister, war minister, navy and overseas minister. He had also several honorary titles. He married Dona Isabel José de Meneses but they had no children, so the 6th Count of Galveias was his brother Francisco (1758-1819). |
