Abstract

This article discusses four little-known moments of life of the Emperor D. Pedro II. We’ll review his strong passion for the Bible and Hebrew manuscripts of the time; Recalling also that three of the four chosen moments are part of the little book of travel (Daily 18-19, Pack 37, doc. 1057), stored in the Imperial Museum of Petrópolis, and published a few years ago in critical edition. 1 these are the episodes: 1) guided tour of the St. Petersburg University; 2) translations carried out during his trip to the Holy Land; 3) visit to Jews Samaritans in Nablus in Samaria; 4) critical to the monks of Saint Sabbá in Judea.
