## The Controversial Traveler

Italian writer, critic, translator, and scholar **Giuseppe Baretti** (1719-1789) embarked on a journey to Lisbon on August 31, 1760, accompanied by Edward Southwell, Baron of Clifford. This voyage resulted in two significant books: *Lettere Familiari di Giuseppe Baretti A' Suoi Tre Fratelli Tornando da Londra in Italia nel 1760* (vol. I, 1762; vol. II, 1763) and *A Journey from London to Genoa Through England, Portugal, Spain and France* (London, 1770). Although the English work presents itself as a translation of the first, the differences between *Lettere* and *A Journey* are considerable, making them unique.

*Giuseppe Baretti (1719-1789)*

In both texts, rather than providing an objective and detailed guide, Baretti embarks on an emotional journey—a voyage of discovery of personal, cultural, moral, existential, and ethical thoughts. Faced with a world different from his own, strange and extraordinary (in both positive and negative senses), attentive to what he deems worthy of record, Baretti, using the humor he learned from Italian authors of the time, often departs from the conventions of travel literature: he privileges anecdotes, makes criticisms, and reveals interests and ideologies.

## The European Fascination with Post-Earthquake Lisbon

Curiosity about Lisbon must have been certainly great. The uniqueness of the **1755 tragedy** had been news throughout Europe: such as the detailed account published in London in the magazine *The Gentleman's Magazine and Historical Chronicle*, by Edward Cave, on November 6, 1755, just five days after the event; not to mention Voltaire's references to the earthquake in *Poème sur le Désastre de Lisbonne* (1756) and in *Candide* (1758). The attraction became even greater when the "world" to be known was a kingdom whose political vicissitudes, such as the attempted assassination of King José I and the expulsion of the Jesuits in 1759, were subjects of reflection in the rest of Europe. Portugal was a kingdom to be examined "under a magnifying glass."

*The Lisbon earthquake in 1755, unknown author.*

## Baretti's Unflattering Portrait of Portugal

Without hiding the philosophical and mental superiority he felt towards the Iberian world, similar to that expressed by much of the English intellectual world of the time, Baretti, without worrying about losing ground in objectivity and authority, constructs an unflattering image of Portugal. He excuses himself with the little time available and the lack of knowledge of the facts, people, and functioning of institutions. If he softens his criticisms of the country in *Journey*, saying that he lacked knowledge of the language and interaction with the Portuguese aristocracy, probably in step with civilized Europe, in *Lettere* his humorous verve is so strong that he received strong criticisms from Ambrósio Pereira Freire de Andrade e Castro, Minister plenipotentiary in Austria, displeased with the criticisms of the Portuguese royal family: Baretti finds it too simple, humble, too close to the people, lacking the exemplary distance of other royal houses.

But what makes him sigh with relief when he crosses the border and leaves Portugal is almost everything: a people who probably did not even feel the loss of books in the earthquake, because those were never "fashionable" here; who only have a Camões and an Osório, and not even those are read; who built a palace in Mafra disproportionate to the landscape and with a library full of religious books and nothing scientific; a government that sent away the Jesuits, the only guarantee of education; who has bad inns, many with fleas; a poorly educated and malicious population... A people who did little after the tragedy of 1755. Ignorant, backward, poor, and not very hardworking. He would never return to Portugal. Not because he did not want to, but because the Marquis of Pombal would not forgive his criticisms and would refuse to allow the Italian writer to enter the kingdom.

## The Racial Prejudice: "Portugal Is Too Close to Africa"

Perhaps what predisposed him most to dislike Portugal, however, was, in customs and people, the proximity to Africa: "But, regardless of what I believe, don't you think that Portugal is too close to Africa?" (*Journey*, 1970: 190). A proximity also evoked in the presence of blacks and mulattos throughout Lisbon. Capital of the Portuguese empire, crossroads between continents, the presence of people of different races certainly gave the city an unusual multiethnic atmosphere. Therefore, when he describes Portugal as a country full of blacks, he demonstrates the feeling of strangeness that a racially mixed society provoked in him.

![Cais do Sodré in 1785, by Joaquim Marques – MNAA](https://bordalo.observador.pt/v2/q:60/rs:fill:560/plain/https://s3.observador.pt/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/05164709/joaquim-marques-o-cais-do-sodre-em-1785-mnaa-cf-os-africanos-em-portugal-04.jpg)

*Cais do Sodré in 1785, by Joaquim Marques – MNAA*

If, on one hand, Baretti does not approve of slavery, on the other, he opposes miscegenation, considering mulattos as "human monsters." He notes, in *Lettere*, the large number of blacks, men and women, transported from Africa to Portugal, or born in Portugal of African parents, who "fill this small corner of Europe with a kind of human monsters called mulattos, who are children of a black and a white woman, or of a black woman and a white man." These "monsters, in turn, produce other monsters by uniting with other European men and women." Thus, "few Portuguese families manage to remain purely European, and with the passage of time all will become mixed, that is, in all of them, to a greater or lesser degree, African blood will enter."

In *Journey*, he is more specific: black and white produce a mulatto; a mulatto with a white produces a mestizo. These can be white or black mestizos and can naturally, without impediments, marry whites, blacks, mulattos, and other mestizos. To such an extent did these mixtures exist and were looked upon with such naturalness that Portugal was depraving the original European race and even destroying it. Therefore, with laughter mixed in, he argues that it would be necessary to increasingly purge the nobility, made of racial crossings, of this nation that considers itself so noble and the most illustrious and worthy of all nations.

## The Pseudoscientific Context of Racial Theories

The idea that descendants of interracial relations tainted the purity of races was widespread in Europe with the advent of new pseudoscientific orientations based on climatological and racial theories, to the point that, in the 19th century, in his *Essay on the Inequality of Human Races*, Arthur de Gobineau developed his thought on the principle of ethnic degeneration of races. For the author, this degeneration arose from the mixture, the fragility, and the inferiority of mixed races and their necessarily mixed nations. If the Portuguese mixed with blacks and indigenous peoples, adopting their customs, this, for the French theorist, occurred because the two races possessed factors of attraction and proximity: the Portuguese race was not so distant from the defects of the indigenous races.

Baretti positions himself ethnocentrically, giving voice to a code of ethical and aesthetic values that guide his vision of the world and others. Reducing Portugal to his personal dimension of civilization, he focuses on eccentricities or reprehensible attitudes, which he reports with more or less humor. But he also gives us the portrait of a kingdom that, in the century of the Enlightenment, showed itself modern in what Baretti finds monstrous: in the construction of an interracial and inclusive society.

## Artur Lima Criticizes Government Ministers

**Artur Lima**, the Vice-President of the Regional Government of the Azores and leader of the CDS-PP in the region, did not hold back in his criticism of the Ministry of Defense, led by **Nuno Melo** (who is also the president of CDS-PP), and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, headed by **Paulo Rangel**. 

In a press conference held this Wednesday, Lima stated, "It is condemnable the abandonment and negligence that these Ministries have shown towards the Azoreans." 

He further emphasized that the Republic's Government "needs to get used to the fact that Portugal no longer has colonies" and that the Azores "are an autonomous region that should be respected and considered." 

Lima accused the Minister of Foreign Affairs of "never having responded" to a letter he sent and charged both ministers with abandoning these Portuguese workers "to their fate." 

"They are Portuguese citizens in a difficult social situation and were completely abandoned to their fate by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Defense," he reinforced. 

On October 15, the Vice-President of the Regional Government sent a letter to the Minister of Foreign Affairs urging diplomatic action from the Republic's Government. 

Lima also provided details to journalists about the solution found for these employees to receive their salaries. 

## Solution for Unpaid Wages at Lajes Base

Portuguese workers at the Lajes Base with overdue salaries can apply for an advance starting next Monday. This measure was coordinated between the **Regional Government of the Azores**, the **Social Security Institute**, and the banking sector. 

**The net salary of these workers will be transferred to their accounts**, and they are required to repay the amount received within ten business days after the U.S. Government processes the salary payment. 

"This model will not incur any cost for the Lajes Base employees," Lima assured. 

The Vice-President of the Regional Government hopes that the Portuguese workers at the Lajes Base can start receiving payments as early as next week. 

Currently, two biweekly salaries are missing because employees are paid every 15 days. **Over 360 workers are affected**. 

These workers, employed by **USFORAZORES**, did not receive their pay for the last biweekly period on October 27, and the previous one was paid with a cut of four days due to a partial shutdown of the U.S. administration caused by the failure to approve the federal budget of the United States. 

In the coming days, an ordinance will be published, and workers can go to Social Security to access the advance.

O vice-presidente do Governo Regional dos Açores criticou esta quarta-feira a atuação dos ministros da Defesa e dos Negócios Estrangeiros no dossier dos salários em atraso dos trabalhadores portugueses da Base das Lajes, na ilha Terceira.

## Severe Weather Wreaks Havoc Across Portugal

A powerful cold front swept across mainland Portugal on Wednesday, November 5, 2025, triggering **over 1,000 incidents** and widespread disruption. The **Portuguese Institute for Sea and Atmosphere (IPMA)** had issued orange warnings for all districts except Bragança, alerting residents to **heavy rain, thunderstorms, and strong winds** gusting up to 100 km/h in highlands.

### Key Statistics and Regional Impact

By 10:00 PM, the **National Authority for Emergency and Civil Protection (ANEPC)** reported **1,123 occurrences** nationwide, primarily affecting **Lisbon and Tagus Valley** and the **Central region**. The breakdown by region shows:
- **Lisbon and Tagus Valley**: 548 incidents
- **Central region**: 277 incidents
- **Northern region**: 216 incidents
- **Alentejo**: 78 incidents
- **Algarve**: 4 incidents

Within Lisbon and Tagus Valley, the **Greater Lisbon sub-region** was hardest hit with 249 occurrences alone.

### Power Outages and Infrastructure Damage

**E-Redes**, the electricity distribution operator, faced significant challenges. At the peak around 8:30 AM, approximately **60,000 customers were without power**. By 5:30 PM, this number had reduced to about 5,000, with efforts ongoing to restore service. Key affected areas included the **Mondego and Tagus regions**, particularly in districts like **Santarém, Castelo Branco, and Portalegre**.

Infrastructure suffered extensively, with reports of:
- **Fallen trees** blocking roads and damaging vehicles
- **Flooding** in urban and rural areas
- **Structural collapses** and landslides
- **Interruptions to river transport** between the south bank and Lisbon due to adverse sea conditions

### Exceptional Lightning Activity

The IPMA recorded an **exceptional 47,676 lightning strikes** over 24 hours, a figure described as having a "degree of exceptionality" by meteorologist Pedro Sousa. This intense electrical activity contributed to incidents like a **house fire in Sátão** caused by a lightning strike, which destroyed the property while the owner was abroad.

### Localized Incidents and Response

- **Sintra**: The municipality pledged to cover damages for five cars affected by fallen trees in the São Marcos urbanization.
- **Leiria**: A school with 700 students canceled classes due to power outages, while another school experienced flooding but remained operational.
- **Lisbon Airport**: The PSP border control area was flooded, temporarily halting services.
- **Ericeira**: Two individuals were rescued from the sea with minor injuries.

Civil protection and emergency services remained on high alert, with nearly 4,000 operatives and 1,400 terrestrial resources deployed to manage the situation. Residents were urged to follow safety recommendations and avoid unnecessary travel.

## A Landmark Political Homage

**"There's a Portugal before and after Aníbal Cavaco Silva."** This powerful statement set the tone for an extraordinary tribute ceremony where the former Portuguese leader received heartfelt honors while delivering pointed political commentary.

### Emotional Ceremony at Official Residence

The Prime Minister opened the doors of the official residence to honor – and heap praise upon – the man who remains his inspiration and governance reference. Marking **40 years since the inauguration of the X Constitutional Government**, Cavaco Silva arrived smiling, visibly moved by the occasion.

### Gratitude and Political Reflections

During his address, Cavaco Silva made his gratitude to the Portuguese people abundantly clear, but he didn't shy away from making several political observations. He reminded attendees that his **"worst moment"** came when he had to reshuffle the executive in 1990, a memory that still resonates deeply.

### Unflinching Political Commentary

The former leader didn't hold back in his critique of contemporary politics, stating firmly that **"mistakes made by a government cannot be hidden."** His remarks included pointed observations about media coverage and political accountability, delivering what many interpreted as subtle warnings to current leadership.

### Legacy of Governance

This ceremony wasn't just about looking back – it served as a powerful reminder of Cavaco Silva's enduring influence on Portuguese politics and governance models that continue to shape the nation's direction decades after his initial term began.

Numa homenagem carregada de elogios, Cavaco Silva não deixou de fazer considerações sobre os tempos actuais. “Os erros cometidos por um Governo não podem ser escondidos”, disse.

## Brutal Attack Leaves Visible Evidence

**Lisbon PSP officers** made a dramatic arrest of a **53-year-old man** following a severe domestic violence incident in the Santa Clara parish. When police arrived at the residence, they were immediately confronted with a **blood-stained door** - the first visible evidence of the violence that had occurred inside.

## Early Morning Emergency Call

The alert came through at **7:30 AM on October 31st**, with reports of a serious domestic violence situation requiring immediate police intervention. Upon entering the residence, officers found the **female victim with clearly visible injuries** who immediately identified her husband as the perpetrator of the assault.

## Violent Resistance During Arrest

When police attempted to engage both parties in dialogue, the **53-year-old man became aggressive toward officers**, forcing them to physically restrain and handcuff him. Investigation revealed this was **not an isolated incident** but part of a recurring pattern of domestic abuse.

## Serious Consequences

The victim required **hospitalization for her injuries**, underscoring the severity of the attack. Following his arrest, the aggressor was presented before a judge and has been placed in **preventive detention** while the case proceeds through the legal system.

## Public Earthquake Drill Engages Portuguese Population

Today, the **Portuguese Civil Protection** is challenging the public to participate in a nationwide earthquake awareness exercise called **'A Terra Treme'** (www.aterratreme.pt). Scheduled for 11:05 AM, this annual event, organized by the **National Authority for Emergency and Civil Protection (ANEPC)** in partnership with various public and private entities, aims to empower people with knowledge on how to act during an earthquake.

### Key Actions to Take

The exercise focuses on three simple yet crucial gestures: **lower yourself, protect yourself, and wait**. These actions are designed to significantly improve safety for anyone practicing them when a seismic event occurs. According to ANEPC, the drill lasts only one minute and encourages participation from individuals, families, schools, businesses, and organizations to perform these self-protection measures.

### Broader Educational Goals

ANEPC's initiative seeks to educate the population on **preventive measures and self-protection behaviors** before, during, and after an earthquake. This year marks the **13th edition** of the exercise, held annually on November 5th, which aligns with **World Tsunami Awareness Day** and comes just four days after the 270th anniversary of the **great 1755 earthquake** in Portugal.

### Nationwide Sensitization Efforts

Across the country, **Regional and Sub-regional Commands of Emergency and Civil Protection**, in collaboration with educational communities, municipal civil protection services, fire departments, and other civil protection agents, are conducting awareness campaigns on seismic risks. The main event for this edition will take place at the **Professor Reynaldo dos Santos School Group in Vila Franca de Xira**, featuring the presence of ANEPC President **José Manuel Moura**.

A Proteção Civil desafia hoje a população portuguesa a realizar um exercício público de sensibilização para o risco sísmico, uma ação que dura um minuto e compreende a realização de três gestos: baixar, proteger e aguardar.

## Fragile Fiberglass Vessel Intercepted in Joint Operation

A **narcosubmarine** made of **fiberglass** and described as highly fragile was captured last week in a coordinated effort involving the **Polícia Judiciária (PJ)**, the Navy, and the Air Force. The vessel was located approximately **1,000 kilometers southwest of Ponta Delgada in the Azores**, the same area where a similar submarine was seized in March.

### Exhausted Crew and Dangerous Journey

On board were **four men**—two Ecuadorians, one Venezuelan, and one Colombian, aged between 40 and 65—who were reported to be **exhausted due to the precarious conditions** of the boat. According to sources, the submarine had departed from **Venezuela** and had been navigating for about **15 days** with **1.7 tons of cocaine**.

### Emerging Trend in Drug Trafficking

This incident highlights a **new practice** among trafficking organizations, as explained by **Vítor Ananias**, coordinator of the PJ's anti-trafficking unit. He noted that traffickers are increasingly using available technology to build narcosubmarines, deploying them across the **Atlantic Ocean** to rendezvous with high-speed boats from the **Iberian Peninsula** for drug transfers. In a related event, a seized speedboat sank in the Atlantic while being towed to port.

### Previous Seizure and Legal Actions

In March, a larger narcosubmarine was intercepted in the same region, leading to the arrest of five individuals and the confiscation of **6.5 tons of cocaine**. The four suspects from the recent operation have been placed in **preventive detention** by a court in Ponta Delgada.

## Hospital Contacted Family Four Days After Pregnant Woman's Death

Four days after the death of Umo Cani, a 36-year-old Guinean national, and following inquiries from RTP, the **Hospital Fernando da Fonseca** in Amadora-Sintra has now stated that it **'has contacted the family of the user to offer heartfelt condolences'**. The hospital also expressed its readiness **'to provide all psychological support deemed necessary'**.

### Details of the Incident

The woman, who was **38 weeks pregnant**, was admitted to the hospital in the early hours of Friday already in **cardiorespiratory arrest**. She had attended a routine prenatal appointment on Wednesday and was sent home. In the early hours of the following day, she suffered another cardiorespiratory arrest and did not survive. RTP has learned that the cause of death was likely a **heart attack**.

### Baby Also Succumbs

## Introduction to AI²

This Wednesday, **the new Agency for Research and Innovation (AI²) was officially presented**, marking a significant merger between the **Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT)** and the **National Innovation Agency (ANI)**. It is set to **begin operations in January 2026**, streamlining efforts in scientific and technological advancement.

## Legal Framework and Changes

The decree-law for creating AI² was approved in September and was awaiting promulgation by the President of the Republic. However, **the diploma must return to the Council of Ministers** due to amendments introduced by the **Ministry of Education, Science, and Innovation (MECI)**, detailed in a recent press conference. A key change involves the agency's legal nature: **AI² will be a Public Business Entity (E.P.E.)**, rather than the initially planned **Sociedade Anónima (S.A.)**. This revision aims to **provide greater flexibility**, enabling agreements and contracts with public entities across different government areas and private organizations.

## Mission and Objectives

As highlighted by MECI, AI²'s mission is to **"promote, fund, and evaluate scientific research and the development of technological and business innovation in Portugal"**. It will also **"stimulate the promotion, development, and evaluation of actions and activities in fundamental research, applied research, knowledge valorization, and technological development and innovation"**, guided by multi-year program contracts and mission letters.

## Funding and Strategic Planning

Previously, the ministry indicated that **agency funding would be multi-annual, based on five-year program contracts**. These contracts will **define research areas, strategic domains, and state budget allocations for each**. To establish these strategic domains and budget allocations, the ministry outlined several steps:
- **Evaluation of strategic planning** and consultation with relevant government areas.
- After community input, **scenario development for allocation by PLANAPP** (Center for Planning and Evaluation of Public Policies).
- Approval by Council of Ministers Resolution, followed by publication of strategic challenges and budget distribution.
- **Finalization with the signing of the multi-year program contract**.

For the **2026-2031 program contract**, each research and development area will have a stable budget allocation from tax revenues, intended to **fund fundamental research, doctoral education, scientific careers, institutions, and scientific and technological infrastructures**.

## Monitoring and Evaluation

According to the ministry, **funding program execution will be continuously monitored**. This includes:
- **Collection and processing of operational, financial, and scientific data** related to program execution.
- **Quantification of results with objective, pre-defined metrics**.
- Conducting an **"independent multi-annual evaluation, both national and international, with results made public"**.
- Preparation of **annual progress reports submitted to PLANAPP, DGEPA, DGE, and CNCTI**, which will be published and disseminated.

## Consultation Process and Transition

The government has initiated a **consultation process for AI²**, where the decree-law will be **presented to relevant entities in the scientific and innovation ecosystem**, and their opinions will be sought. With the creation of AI², **FCT and ANI will be dissolved**, and approximately **400 personnel will be transferred** to the new agency, as reported by Observador.

Aprovado em setembro, o Decreto-Lei de criação da Agência para a Investigação e Inovação (AI²) vai voltar a Conselho de Ministros, uma vez que o Governo fez alterações ao diploma, anunciadas hoje em conferência de imprensa.
