About This Item
N.p., n.pr., (1777).. FIRST and ONLY EDITION. 4°, disbound. Caption title. A few pin-point wormholes, touching 1 letter of text. Overall in good condition. (2 ll.). *** FIRST and ONLY EDITION of this ode on D. Maria's acclamation, signed in print at the end. D. Maria (b. 1734) became Portugal's first queen regnant on February 24, 1777, after the death of her father D. José I. She reigned until her death in 1816, although by 1792 she was suffering such severe mental illness that her son, the future D. João VI, ruled in her stead (as Prince Regent starting in 1799).Mathias José Dias Azedo (1758-1821) joined the Portuguese army in 1780 and rose through the ranks to become lieutenant-general by 1813. For many years he taught at the Academia Real de Fortificação, for whose students he wrote Compendio militar, 1796, a handbook on military tactics. It was notable for its use of the system of orthography dictated by pronunciation that had been espoused by Verney and Theodoro de Almeida (e.g. instrusao for instrucção). Contemporaries praised his knowledge of literature and science as well as the military arts, but Innocêncio knew of only a few published works: the Compendio militar, this poem, and Hymeneo, a poem on an aristocratic marriage that was set to music by Jeronimo Francisco Lima.*** Innocêncio VI, 160.
