To date, the most complete, well-researched, and historically sound study on the 1755 Lisbon Earthquake – considered one of the most transformative "natural" disasters in history. Explores the urban, social, and political landscape of Lisbon (and surrounding regions) from the eve of disaster through its aftermath, and examines its impact on the Enlightenment movement in Europe.
