OLIVEIRA, Luiz Eduardo Meneses de. THE POMBALINE WRITINGS ON ENGLAND AND ITS RELATION TO THE TEACHING OF ENGLISH IN PORTUGAL AND BRAZIL (1762-1809). Hist. Educ. [online]. 2020, vol.24, e96265. Epub Nov 30, 2020. ISSN 2236-3459. https://doi.org/10.1590/2236-3459/96265.
This article investigates the way how the writings of Pombal on England and his experience as a diplomat in London between 1738 and 1742 reverberated in his political enterprises related to teaching, in general, and the teaching of English, in particular, when he became minister of D. José I, in Portugal, between 1750 and 1777. To reach these objectives, we will use the historiography, legislation, published epistolary sources and English grammars and dictionaries of the period.
