The retrieval in 1990 of what is probably the sole surviving copy of Uriel da Costa's book, outlawed and burnt in 1624, is an almost miraculous boon for humanity. Da Costa's Exame, supplemented by da Silva's Tratado, merits a prominent place in the history of thought, Judaism and Portuguese Literature.
