for his leading work recovering portuguese texts of historical martial arts. This is the translation of Manuel&#8217;s acceptance speech:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Dear sires and madams:<\/p>\n<p>It is with great satisfaction that I receive this dubiously deserved homage, fruit of the affection of the friends who wanted to signify the work done to recover the Portuguese fencing texts, a task that I undertook boldly, for Portuguese is not my mother tongue, but at the same time with the dedication of a passionate choice.<\/p>\n<p>The merit is not mine, but of the great group of friends and collaborators who for several years have worked with me on the recovery of these almost forgotten books.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to mention, first of all, Steve Hick and Eric Myers, who from remote countries have shown considerable interest in the heritage of Portuguese fencing, especially regarding the older texts.<\/p>\n<p>All the people who contributed to the publication of our books: Ton Puey, Denis Fernandez Cabrera, Francisco Castro, Laksmy Irigoyen, Jaime Girona, Tomas Ahola, Manuel Campo, Diego Conde and Tim Rivera . The cooperative effort of so many people has allowed us to reach this moment.<\/p>\n<p>I must also point out the indispensable collaboration of the Portuguese librarians who keep these treasures in the National Library of Lisbon, the Torre do Tombo, the Library of Ajuda, the Lisbon Academy of Sciences and the University Library of Coimbra, who with greatness and true love for books have greatly facilitated our investigations.<\/p>\n<p>And finally, thanks to our Portuguese friends and especially Fernando Brecha, who with his enthusiasm encouraged us to continue this work.<\/p>\n<p>We just took the first steps on this path. New generations will come who will continue and expand on this task.<\/p>\n<p>Muito obrigado<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id='gallery-9' class='gallery galleryid-861 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/en\/2018\/01\/26\/cronica-duma-viagem-a-tomar-novembro-de-2017\/img_4143\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_4143-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_4143-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_4143-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_4143-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/en\/2018\/01\/26\/cronica-duma-viagem-a-tomar-novembro-de-2017\/img_4147\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_4147-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_4147-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_4147-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_4147-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/en\/2018\/01\/26\/cronica-duma-viagem-a-tomar-novembro-de-2017\/img_4157\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_4157-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_4157-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_4157-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_4157-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>The meeting went along beautifully for a couple of days, giving us another chance to tighten bonds between the galician and portuguese HEMA communities, as well as to meet again some international friends.

But our trip kept one last surprise in storage for us: shortly before arriving to the banks of the Minho river our car&#8217;s engine shut down in a bend of the road, leaving us stranded mid-highway, up-hill. We negotiated with our insurance for some exciting minutes the recovery of our car full of rapiers, longswords, montantes, sweat-soaked clothes and other weapons of mass destruction.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_881\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-881\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_20171112_212253.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-881 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_20171112_212253-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_20171112_212253-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_20171112_212253-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_20171112_212253-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_20171112_212253-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_20171112_212253-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/agea.campusconexion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/IMG_20171112_212253.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-881\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The car, full of swords, as it is towed away<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But, luckily, the insurance company did its job and soon we had our car taken care of and a taxi for us, to take us home for the rest of the trip.
