BONAVENTURA, FORTUNATO DE S.:

Member of the Royal Academy of Science of Lisbon about the beginning of the nineteenth century. He attempted a history of the literature of the Jewish authors in Portugal, under the title "Memoria Sobre o Começo, Progresso e Decadencia da Litteratura Hebraica entre os Portuguezes Catholicos Romanos," which appeared in the ninth volume of the Academy's memoirs, but is of little value.
