FERNANDES, Hermenegildo. Virgínia Rau: variations on a cosmopolitanism. Faces de Eva. Estudos sobre a Mulher [online]. 2017, n.37, pp.23-39. ISSN 0874-6885.

Aspects of the intellectual biography of Virgínia Rau (1907-1973) are discussed here considering the relation between her life, marked by cosmopolitanism, and the main topics in her works: birth of merchant elites, long distance trade and economic institutions. Her role in the formation of a historiographic field in Portugal is also questioned

Palavras-chave : Historiography; cosmopolitanism; elites.
