Summary: | This article is a philological study of a manuscript dated 15 January 1784, written in Rio de Janeiro, and part of the Public Archive of the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil, from which facsimile and semi-diplomatic editions are produced and paleographic aspects analyzed, with an examination of characteristics relative to the adjectival and transcendental functions of Philology, as defined in Spina (1977: 77). This activity is linked to the projects “Towards the History of Brazilian Portuguese” (“Para a História do Português Brasileiro – PHPB”) – and “A Study of Portuguese in manuscripts produced in Mato Grosso from the 18th Century onwards” (“Estudo do português em manuscritos produzidos em Mato Grosso a partir do século XVIII”), within the Post-Graduate Language Studies Program at the Language Institute of the Federal University of Mato Grosso, Brazil. |
