Résumé En

José-Augusto França : The marquis of Pombal's Lisbon in 1778. The death of Joseph I in 1777 led to tlie fall of his powerful minister Pombal who was exiled and condemned, but finally pardoned. The pious Queen Mary I provided a symbol for the change in Portuguese society with the church of Estela, consacrated in 1790, the last Old Regime basilica in Europe, built with the trade tax intended for the reconstruction of Lisbon. In 1778 the works of the modem "perverted philosophers", already condemned by Pombal, were banned but they were distributed clandestinely by the French booksellers in Lisbon and the colony of foreign technicians and soldiers. Popular opinion came to regret Pombal.
