O thesouro do rei Fernando by Luciano Cordeiro

"O thesouro do rei Fernando" by Luciano Cordeiro is a historical narrative written in the late 19th century. The book details an anecdotal history surrounding an unpublished treaty from the 14th century, specifically between King Fernando I of Portugal and Duke Louis of Anjou, which aimed at waging war against the King of Aragon. The story delves into the political intricacies and alliances that shaped the Iberian Peninsula during a tumultuous time. At the start of the text, we learn about the discovery of a significant document by Charles Urseau, a secretary to the Bishop of Angers, which outlines the treaty made in 1377. The document pertains to an agreement between King Fernando and Duke Louis of Anjou, outlining their combined efforts to combat King Pedro IV of Aragon. The narrative provides insights into the alliances, political maneuvers, and the personalities involved, framing the discussion around the historical context of Portugal's monarchy and its struggles for independence within the political landscape of the time.
