| Summary |
"O Centenario de José Estevão: Homenagem da Maçonaria Portugueza" by Lima is a historical discourse presented in honor of José Estevão, likely written in the early 20th century. This publication serves as both a testament to Estevão's significant influence on Portuguese society and a reflection on the ideals of Freemasonry. The main topic revolves around celebrating Estevão’s legacy, particularly his moral and intellectual contributions to politics and society in Portugal. In this speech delivered at the Teatro de Aveiro on December 26, 1909, Lima elaborates on José Estevão's virtues, emphasizing his role as a champion of freedom, justice, and democracy. The speaker recounts Estevão's commitment to social reforms, his anti-clerical stance, and his advocacy for the marginalized through various political movements, including socialism and democracy. Lima juxtaposes Estevão’s moral heroism with historical figures, illustrating a vision of a society built on principles of equality and solidarity. The discourse captures a blend of melancholy and pride, as it invites the audience to remember Estevão’s contributions while urging a continued pursuit of progress and social harmony among the Portuguese people.
