Southey was admired by Almeida Garrett, who successfully requested Queen Maria II to grant him the honour of Knight of the Tower and Sword in April 1838, in recognition of his contribution to the history of Portugal, as systematised in his História do Brasil (Cabral, A., "Garrett, Southey e a Torre e Espada" [Garrett, Southey and the Tower and Sword], 1957, p. 10). Such admiration for his work was also expressed by Capistrano de Abreu and Gilberto Freyre. On the other hand, in Victorian Britain, Southey was relegated to relative obscurity. However, in recent decades, the intensification of studies on his work has been accompanied by the reissue of Letters from England (2016) and Sir Thomas More: or, Colloquies on the Progress and Prospects of Society (2018), as well as significant ongoing publishing projects, such as the edition of part of his unfinished History of Portugal by researcher Alexandre Dias Pinto and the project to publish all of his correspondence by Linda Pratt, Tim Fulford, and Ian Packer. The publication of these works, which bring previously unpublished material to the public, will undoubtedly contribute to the development of more complex interpretations of Southey's work and his legacy, which richly interconnect different temporalities and spatialities on transatlantic scales.
