Abstract

This article investigates and catalogs the private library of the cônego of the Sé of Bahia, Manuel José Baptista de Freitas Mascarenhas (Manoel Dendê Bus). His inventory shows the list of enrolled 176 works by the bookseller and printmaker José Paulo Franco Lima in 1836. This list allows to identify and reconstruct the catalog of a private library formed in Bahia between the end of the colonial period and the Regency.
