QR code
"O congresso de Roma" by S. de Magalhães Lima is a significant work that takes the form of a political and philosophical conference report written in the early 20th century. The book documents the perspectives and conclusions reached during the International Congress of Free Thought held in Rome in 1904. Its principal theme addresses the rights of free thought, challenging religious authority and advocating for a secular, scientific approach to both social
and political issues. The text begins with a passionate defense of free thought against the Catholic Church's influence on society, as articulated by the Portuguese delegate, Magalhães Lima. Notably, the congress sought to raise awareness of the adverse effects of religious dogma, emphasize scientific understanding, and promote secularism in public institutions, particularly education and healthcare. Throughout the discourse, Lima highlights the importance of freeing individuals from religious constraints to foster intellectual and moral progress. It serves not only as a historical account of a pivotal moment for free thinkers in Europe but also as a call to action for those invested in the separation of church and state and the promotion of social justice through scientific principles.
