Summary

Manuel Severim de Faria (1584–1655) studied theology and served as canon at the cathedral of Évora, in southern Portugal. Influenced by an uncle who was also a canon, he is the author of various essays with insightful reflections on Portugal and its overseas possessions, later developed in Notícias de Portugal, a collection of essays dedicated to João IV written roughly three decades before its publication in 1655.
