| Resumo: | It is important to fathom the reasons for the conspicuous absence of the Azores during the founding of the Republic despite the fact that some of its advocates were Azoreans and especially when the Azores had played a remarkable role during the arduous transition to the liberal regime. It is improbable to believe that the idea of a republic would have been more entrenched despite the vigorous and organized campaign to disseminate such ideals usurping the opportunity provided by the backdrop of important national events. The adverse socio-economic issues plaguing the islands focussed primarily on the aspect of autonomy which was also ironically supported by a republican doctrine that was federalist in nature. In summary, using the accounts from the local periodicals, this article aims to study the profile of facts and ideas, dominant and emergent in the archipelago, on the eve of the republican revolution heralding a new regime, especially on the islands of São Miguel and Terceira. |
