Volume
I of a ten volume set; the remaining volumes will probably
appear over the next year or so. The conception of the work
and the establishment of the inventory is that of the
editors. José Mattoso, Paulo Pereira and Teresa Belo are
"consultores científicos". Chapter introductions are being
written by Alvaro Duarte de Almeida and Paulo Pereira. A
large team is working on descriptions of individual units
of patrimony as well as documentary research, and a
significant number of entries are signed with the initials
of the contributors, such as Paulo Pereira (PP), Ferrnando
Mota de Matos (FMM), Ana Cláudia Vicente (AV), etc.
Cartographical support in digital form is being provided by
the Instituto Geográfico do Exército. The work is being
produced in collaboration with the Ministério da Cultura
and the Instituto Português do Património Arquitectónico.
We are accepting standing orders.
