Summary "Noites de Insomnia, offerecidas a quem não póde dormir" by Camillo Castello Branco is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work comprises a detailed exploration of Portuguese history, particularly focusing on the intrigues surrounding the House of Braganza and its political ramifications. It features various characters and historical references, addressing themes of loyalty, betrayal, and national identity during a tumultuous period in Portugal's past. The opening of this text introduces a letter from Dr. Pedro de Alpoem, a narrator who addresses the Duke of Braganza. He explains the complexities and failures in the governance and loyalty of the Portuguese nobility, who sought personal gain over national fidelity during a time of crisis. The correspondence delves into past betrayals and the socio-political landscape of Portugal, revealing the ongoing struggles between maintaining legitimacy and the temptations of foreign allegiance. Through detailed narrative and historical recounting, the author paints a vivid picture of the repercussions of decision-making among the nobility and their enduring impact on the nation.
