His extensive body of work and research, along with his involvement in various cultural institutions, led to affiliations with several cultural societies, including the National Academy of Fine Arts, the Portuguese Academy of History, the Deutsches Archäologisches Institut in Berlin, the Royal Academy of History, and the Coimbra Institute. He was an honorary member of the National Society of Fine Arts, an officer of the Order of St. James, and was also awarded the German Red Cross.
His connection to Portuguese Freemasonry is well known, and he even published in the Official Bulletin of the Grand Orient of Portugal. Beyond his ties to Freemasonry, little is known about his political views. However, his frequent contributions to the magazine A Águia — a key platform for promoting the nationalist ideals and messianic tendencies of the Renascença Portuguesa [Portuguese Renaissance] cultural movement — alongside his Masonic affiliations, suggest he likely held republican views. Both institutions played significant roles in fostering and sustaining republican thought during that time. The phrase "the republican sensibility of our youth" ( Discurso pronunciado na cerimónia de Doutoramento [Speech Delivered at the Doctoral Ceremony] …, 1933, p. 18), used by Joaquim de Carvalho to describe his youth alongside Virgílio Correia, further supports this.
