Stvdivm Generale brought together two types of authors: established national and international researchers and young graduates who had just left the School. Of particular note is the regular contribution of Luís de Pina, who was perhaps the greatest driving force behind the creation of a centre, in this case the Centre for Humanistic Studies, which would fill the gap left by the closure of the Faculdade de Letras [School of Arts and Humanities] of Porto, as well as the journal under review. However, other researchers also contributed noteworthy articles, such as Adriano Vasco Rodrigues, Afonso do Paço, Américo da Costa Ramalho, Américo Pires de Lima, António Cruz, Arnaldo Miranda Barbosa, Artur de Magalhães Basto, Carlos Eduardo de Soveral, D. Fernando de Almeida, Delfim Santos, Eugénio dos Santos, Hernâni Monteiro, José Bacelar e Oliveira, José Mattoso, Lúcio Craveiro da Silva, Luís de Oliveira Ramos, Manuel Farinha dos Santos, Maria Helena da Rocha Pereira, Paulo Merêa and Torquato de Sousa Soares. In terms of international contributions, the works of Adolfo Muñoz Alonso, Carlos París Amador, M. Arnold de Kerchove, Michele Federico Sciacca, Miguel Cruz Hernández, Suzanne Lilar and Thomas Lynn Smith are particularly noteworthy.

The main areas covered by these contributions are Archaeology, Philosophy, History, Literature, Psychology, Sociology and Theatre. In the field of Archaeology, there are articles on archaeological finds, scientific discussions, epigraphy, archaeological sites, the Bronze Age, language, problems of Portuguese prehistory, archaeological itineraries, symbolism, toponymy, communication routes, Roman villages and an overview of archaeology. In Philosophy, issues related to existentialism, classical Portuguese philosophy, philosophy of culture, philosophy of science, modern Portuguese philosophy, history of philosophy, medicine and philosophy, metaphysics and the philosophical thought of Leonardo Coimbra are highlighted. History covers topics related to cultural history, the history of science, the history of international relations, the history of Portuguese discoveries, political history, regional history, religious history, social history and historiography. Literature is another field represented in this journal, with topics related to comedy, poetry and the novel. Psychology is also present, notably through the presentation of the psychological impulse of Husserl’s phenomenology, the psychological panorama in Viagens na minha Terra by Almeida Garrett, and psychology and cinema. Sociology is also present in Stvdivm Generale, albeit with less representation, with a title related to the teaching and research of sociology. Finally, there is Theatre: critical studies on plays, ancient theatre, theatre and mythomania, and Greek theatre in Portugal.
