The thesis deals with the memoirs of Philippe de Commynes and the possibilities of their utilization as a source on the history of mentalities. This significant politician and diplomat of Burgundian origin, although little known in our country, left the court of Charles the Bold to be in service of Louis XI of France. In his memoirs, written after the death of Louis XI., Commynes firstly celebrates this sovereign and secondly he attempts to intensify the didactic scope of the text through various literary resources (digression, exempla), and he tries to stress on some political and moral premises.

Durante o período medieval, o homem português manifestava sua fé em diversas formas e expressões. A peregrinação a santuários constituía uma dessas formas. Em terras lusas encontramos no século XV cinco destes santuários: Bom Jesus, Nossa Senhora das Virtudes, Santos Mártires de Lisboa, Santos Mártires de Marrocos e Nuno Álvares Pereira. Polos e santos diferentes, mas em comum a escrita de Livros de Milagres registrando o perfil do peregrino, o motivo da realização da peregrinação, além de informações variadas, como, por exemplo, status social. Estes escritos revelam facetas múltiplas da população portuguesa, como problemas de saúde, angústias, medos, dificuldades, desejos. A análise desta documentação leva-nos a descobrir aspectos da espiritualidade do português do século XV, assim como também observarmos que não somente de fé vivia a rota para estes santuários, visto que objetivos de canonização, reafirmação de influência no espaço, inclusive com disputa de poder, também marcavam a peregrinação e os relatos de milagres. / During medieval times, the Portuguese man manifested his faith through many ways and several expressions. One of this way was the pilgrimages to sanctuaries. Inside Portuguese Kingdom were found in the XV century, five of these sanctuaries such as: Good Jesus, Our Lady of the Virtues, Holy Martys of Lisbon, Holy Martys of Marocco and Nuno Alves Pereira. Different poles and sants, but with a common subject called the writing of The Miracle\'s Books which register the pelegrin\'s profile, the reason of the pilgrimage, in addition to several informations, for instance, the social status. These writings also reveal many facets of Portuguese people such as health problems, fears, anguishes, difficulties and desires. These Thesis analyzes lead us to discover spiritual aspects of Portuguese people in the fifteenth century and calls our attention to the fact that not only by faith was made the route for these sanctuaries but also canonization objectives and reafirmation of influence in the territory, with power disputes indeed, also marked the pilgrimage and the story of the miracles.

propósito deste trabalho é a elaboração de um catálogo dos incunábulos de Juan Carlos Reppucci, que possui importante coleção particular de livros de temática vinária (vinhos, vinhedos, uvas, vindima, viticultura, vinicultura, embriaguez etc.). A partir de um histórico dos incunábulos e da imprensa no século XV, e de sucinta caracterização do acervo, cada um dos 72 incunábulos foi minuciosamente descrito, de acordo com normas destinadas a obras raras, de modo a compor um instrumento de referência para pesquisadores de diferentes áreas. / The aim of this work is to catalogue the incunabula collection of Juan Carlos Reppucci, owner of an extensive library on wine and related themes (wine, grape, vineyard, vintage, drunkenness etc.).
