On October 9, the e-book “Pão, carne e água na Lisboa medieval. Memórias documentais” will be launched. It brings together an important set of documents resulting from the Exhibition “Bread, meat and water in medieval Lisbon. Documentary memories”. The presentation will take place at Avenidas – Um Teatro em Cada Bairro.

This is a set of 28 documents, with representations and images of associated archaeological artefacts, which allows for better visualization and understanding of the documentary content. The work arises from the exhibition presented by the Lisbon Municipal Archive and IEM at Torre do Tombo between April 23 and August 30, 2019, and appears to complement the available catalogue.

Amélia Aguiar Andrade, Mário Farelo, and Manuela Catarino’s interventions enrich the e-book’s presentation. Their reflections aim to contextualize the themes covered in the work and highlight its value as a pedagogical resource.

Organized by the Lisbon Municipal Archive and the Institute of Medieval Studies of the Faculty of Social and Human Sciences of the New University of Lisbon, the National Archive of Torre supported this initiative do Tombo and Lisbon Tourism and scientifically curated by Amélia Aguiar Andrade and Mário Farelo.

The launch of the e-book “Pão, carne e água na Lisboa medieval. Memórias documentais” will be part of a Conference Cycle, which will take place between 3 pm and 6 pm and will focus on the theme of Medieval Lisbon.
