In around 1967, he was again a pioneer when he wrote «the most detailed, documented and 'delicious' synthesis ever published» on «the art of eating in the Middle Ages» (L. F. de Almeida, «Notas», [«Notes»], RPH, 31, vol. I, 1996, pp. 41-42), a theme that would later be continued within a broader history of daily life. And years later, on the theme of Inês de Castro, reconverting himself like so many others, he invested «man, woman, life, death, love» with a new sensibility, framed now by a nascent history conjugated in the feminine («Os amores de D. Pedro», [«The loves of D. Pedro»]1985, pp. 403-414).
Although late, the new history was on its way, delayed by a conservatism cloaked in politics that a new, more independent generation followed as best it could, wielding the torch that from 1911 until the April revolution had sought to illuminate the past paths of Man, whose conceptual scripts had become increasingly complex. But this was a new caesura in the History Cluster of the Faculty of Arts of Coimbra, whose teaching staff had seen the entry of promising figures in the run-up to the April 1974 revolution. These names blossomed in the ensuing period, multiplying, and bringing a new expression to historiography and the teaching of History, while maintaining a specific feature that its school had assumed since its foundation.
