Resumo(s)
O primeiro Banco do Brasil, instituído
em 1808, é habitualmente referido como
uma das principais iniciativas da
responsabilidade do governo de D. João
VI quando a corte portuguesa se instalou
no Rio de Janeiro. No entanto, continua
em larga medida por fazer a história
dessa instituição cuja fundação foi
concebida como elemento essencial para
o desenvolvimento da política económica
e financeira durante o período de
permanência da corte no Rio. O artigo
procura explicar as motivações que estiveram
na origem da criação do Banco
do Brasil e as razões do fracasso no
cumprimento da sua missão. O artigo
revisita os trabalhos monográficos disponíveis
sobre a história do Banco e revela
documentação impressa pouco estudada
e fontes primárias até agora
inéditas que permitem fazer nova luz
sobre a sua actividade.
The first Bank of Brazil was founded in 1808 and is usually referred to as one of the most relevant initiatives put forward by the government of D. João VI when the Portuguese court established the capital of the empire in Rio de Janeiro. However, our knowledge of the history of this institution, whose creation was conceived as a key element of the economic and financial policies to be implemented during the stay of the Portuguese court in Brazil, is still rather incomplete. It is the aim of this article to explain the main reasons for both the creation and the failure of the Bank of Brazil. The article provides a critical survey of the main secondary literature available on the history of the Bank, while also exploring and revealing unknown and less studied primary sources that shed new light into the activities and scope of the first Bank of Brazil.
