Ongoing

• We are involved in the longstanding project of publication of Pedro Nunes' "Works", edited by the Lisbon Academy of Sciences with funding from the Gulbenkian Foundation. This project involves eight annotated volumes and was restarted in 2001, after four volumes were published (the last one somewhat incomplete) between 1940 and 1960. Six volumes have now been published. Apart from the last two, an additional volume containing an anthology in English of Nunes' most important work is also being prepared. All this work should be complete in the next few years.
• Memória da SPM: tratamento, estudo, apresentação e disponibilização da documentação inédita gerada nos primeiros anos de atividade da Sociedade Portuguesa de Matemática (1940-1948)
  Funded by Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian. Coordinator: Jaime Carvalho e Silva.
• A PhD thesis on the astronomy work of José Monteiro da Rocha was supervised and recently completed with success. The author is now doing postdoc work in Nantes, France. We plan to continue this line of work, including the publication and annotation of Rocha's research papers.
• Concerning Anastácio da Cunha, we are involved in the analysis of several unpublished manuscripts of his. These were found by Braga researchers in the archives of two noblemen who were students of Cunha at the University of Coimbra in the 1770s and who became his friends. Some annotated manuscripts were published in 2006, and work continues on a new set of papers discovered in a palace near Vila Real. An old ambition is to publish an English anthology of Cunha's most important work.
