People From Beja, Portugal
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...

A Batalha
A, or a, is the first letter and the first vowel of the Latin alphabet, used in the modern English alphabet, the alphabets of other western European languages and others worldwide. Its name in English is ''a'' (pronounced ), plural ''aes''. It is similar in shape to the Ancient Greek letter alpha, from which it derives. The uppercase version consists of the two slanting sides of a triangle, crossed in the middle by a horizontal bar. The lowercase version can be written in two forms: the double-storey a and single-storey ɑ. The latter is commonly used in handwriting and fonts based on it, especially fonts intended to be read by children, and is also found in italic type. In English grammar, " a", and its variant " an", are indefinite articles.

Alma Feminina
''Alma feminina'' was the official bulletin of Portugal’s ''Conselho Nacional das Mulheres Portuguesas'' (CNMP) (Portuguese Women’s National Council) from January 1917 to 1946. The Portuguese Women’s National Council was formed in 1914. Its bulletin was first known simply as the Bulletin of the Portuguese Women’s National Council but its name was changed to ''Alma feminina'' (The Feminine Soul) in 1917. It was changed again to ''A Mulher'' (The Woman) in 1946 shortly before the Council was disbanded by the right-wing '' Estado Novo'' government in 1947. The name ''Alma feminina'' had in fact been used for an earlier feminist magazine edited by Virgínia Quaresma. The Council's main means of action was the publication of the bulletin.
