In English | Request letter from Father José de São Miguel de Lobrigos, a Provincial Minister, to Friar António de Poiares. The author begs the addressee to give a public explanation to the head of his convent, a "Father Guardian". He hopes that his request will be followed. Friar José de Canelas and Friar José de Fornelos were accused of leading a mutiny in a Convent in Northern Portugal. They proclaimed political ideals of liberal conviction. In their defense came their Philosophy teacher, Friar António de Poiares, who would be also prosecuted. The latter didn't receive the approval of his fellow friars for several reasons: he didn't wear a regular outfit, didn't follow his teaching duties and despised the Christian education of his pupils. He was out all afternoons, he let the pupils play cards and play musical instrument, he gave them secret and quick lessons and kept the alimonies money. |
