DUARTE RODRIGUES, Ana Margarita. Humboldt's trip to South America and a new idea of landscape: its impact on Eschwege. memorias [online]. 2015, n.25, pp.104-143. ISSN 1794-8886.  https://doi.org/10.14482/memor.25.L6889.

Alexander von Humboldt and the botanist Aimé Bonpland's trip to South America, made between 1799 and 1804, stood as an indisputable standard in the history of science in a broader sense because it had consequences in almost all areas of knowledge. After the revision of Humboldt's relationship with Portugal, I have explored one aspect that was left behind: his friendship with the Baron of Eschwege, architect of Pena's palace and park in Sintra. In view of this, I have deepened the study of the relationship between some Humboldt's texts written during his trip to South America and a new idea of landscape in vogue in the Old Continent, that of sublime landscapes of which Pena Park is a unique example.
