Resumo(s)
O cônsul Daniel Gildemeester inaugurou no dia 25 de Julho de 1787 um palácio localizado junto ao público campo de Seteais, em Sintra. O Palácio de Gildemeester adoptaria o nome de palácio de Seteais em virtude do topónimo em que se encontra implantado. Projectado pelo arquitecto inglês William Elsden, a primitiva estrutura seria alvo de uma importante campanha terminada em 1802, patrocinada pelo 5.º marquês de Marialva, D. Diogo Vito de Menezes, com risco do arquitecto português José da Costa e Silva, que a aumentou e transformou num majestoso palácio que o tempo conservou até aos nossos dias. Ao longo de mais de dois séculos o palácio de Seteais conheceu vários proprietários e encantou gerações de sintrenses e estrangeiros, que se deslocavam a Sintra para veranear ou a pretexto do Grand Tour Continental. Perpetuado nos carnets de viajantes e na poesia e ficção de portugueses e estrangeiros, o palácio é, ainda hoje, uma das estruturas arquitectónicas mais extraordinárias do cenário sintrense. No trabalho que agora apresentamos estudámos as duas principais campanhas de obras de que o palácio de Seteais foi alvo, a sua zona envolvente e a literatura e a poesia que o imortalizaram.
On July 25, 1787, Consul Daniel Gildemeester inaugurated a palace located next to the Seteais commons in Sintra. The Gildemeester Palace would eventually adopt the name of Seteais Palace based on its location. Designed by the English architect, William Elsden, the original structure was the target of a major alteration, sponsored by the 5th Marques of Marialva, Dom Diogo Vito de Meneses, and completed in 1802. The design changes were made by the Portuguese architect, José da Costa e Silva, who expanded and transformed the building into a majestic palace that time has preserved up to the present. For over two centuries, Seteais Palace had several owners and delighted generations of local inhabitants and foreigners, who came to Lisbon for their summer holidays or as part of their Grand Continental Tour. Preserved in travellers' carnets and Portuguese as well as foreign poetry and fiction, the palace remains one of the most remarkable architectural structures of the Sintra landscape. This work presents our study of two major moments targeting the Seteais Palace, its surroundings as well as the literature and poetry that immortalized it.
