Lisboa. 1978. - SILBERT (Albert) LE PORTUGAL Méditerranéen a la Fin de l’Ancien Régime XVIIIe - Début du XIXe Siècle . Contribution à l’histoire agrire comparée. Lisboa: INIC, 1978. 3 v.; 230 mm. Second edition, published by the National Institute for Scientific Research, twelve years after the original Parisian edition. Albert Silbert (Paris, 1915 - Paris, 1996), French historian and geographer, specialized in the study of Portuguese rural society during the Old Regime and the liberal period, maintaining a privileged research relationship with Portugal for decades. Among his reference works are Le Problème Agraire Portugais au Temps des Premières Cortès Libérales (1821-1823) (1968) and Do Portugal do Antigo Regime ao Portugal Oitocentista (1972). Le Portugal Méditerranéen constitutes his fundamental work, originally presented as a doctoral thesis at the Sorbonne in April 1964 and first published in Paris in 1966 in two volumes by SEVPEN. It is the most in-depth historical and geographical study of the agrarian structures of southern Portugal – essentially the Alentejo and the south of Beira Baixa – at the end of the Old Regime and the dawn of liberalism, innovating through the comparative method and the systematic articulation between rural history and geography. The work elicited a critical response from Orlando Ribeiro in A Evolução Agrária no Portugal Mediterrâneo (1970). Estimated. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
