Emanuel Liais: a scientist of two continents

In the middle of the 18th Century, the necessity to explore a new land induced the Portuguese Crown to send to the Colony many geographers and cartographers, such as Parigai, Cieira, Pithon, Basco, Alpoin (Carvalho, 1985).

description In the middle of the 18th Century, the necessity to explore a new land induced the Portuguese Crown to send to the Colony many geographers and cartographers, such as Parigai, Cieira, Pithon, Basco, Alpoin (Carvalho, 1985). It was a crude beginning of Astronomy and Geophysics in Brazil. However, the efforts to establish a regular scientific practice with those specialists were insufficient to be considered as the birth of scientific research. It was necessary to create a true national scientific institution and the conditions for the entry on the scene of the main actor in our story: Emmanuel Liais. These notes intend to analyze his importance in the History of Geomagnetism.
