Acknowledgements
The editor of the Suplemento Ilustrado de A Batalha website would like to thank Dr. Rita Almeida de Carvalho and Dr. Madalena Soares Reis for providing documentation from the Pinto Quartim Collection, kept at the Arquivo de História Social of the Instituto de Ciências Sociais of the University of Lisbon; Dr. Ricardo António Alves for access to the correspondence archives of the Ferreira de Castro Museum; Dr. Luís Sá, of the National Library, for his close and interested collaboration; Dr. Maria João Sampaio, Dr. Sónia Ferreira Pinto, and Dr. Júlio Costa, of the Porto Municipal Public Library, for the digital copy of Almanaque de A Batalha para 1926; Colonel Mário Jorge Silva, Director of the Army Library, for lending the A Novela Vermelha collection.
Thanks are also due to Dr. Elisa Areias and Dr. Luís Garcia e Silva for permitting the reproduction of their studies, as well as to Dr. António Louçã, Dr. Joana Dias Pereira, and Professor Paulo Guimarães, who graciously consented to the inclusion in the website of their articles, chapters, and dictionary entries.
We thank Professor João Freire, not only for his prompt permission for publication of his studies, but also for the introductory text on Suplemento Ilustrado de A Batalha.
The thorough compilation of monographic studies was only made possible by the generosity of Eduardo Mendonça, who provided documents from his personal collection. The task of gathering all necessary graphic elements benefited from the access to Jorge M. Colaço’s image collection. For him, we would like to leave a word of esteem.
Finally, we give our gratitude to the associates of the Centro de Estudos Libertários for allowing access to their rich bibliographical collection, and for their ever-present interest in completing this publication.
