Lisboa Pombalina

As promised (!) here is the outline of the text you are supposed to write with (some of) the things you learned in the study visit:

- Introductory paragraph - purpose of the visit
- Historical background
- The city before the earthquake
- The earthquake
- The rationale for reconstruction (context, layout, buildings' structure,topography, economic constraints,...)
- One detail (or more) that caught your imagination: colour, toponomy, façades, statuary, function ...
- Final comments/general assessment of visit

This book, that you can find in CRE, might help you:
