  Biographical Notes on Pedro Nolasco da Silva

  
  

  Pedro Nolasco da Silva was a brilliant linguist, and was to become the first head of the Department of Sino-Portuguese languages in Macau. He wrote books and dictionaries on the Chinese language for the use of Portuguese and English language speaking people. Maria Fernanda Nolasco da Silva Ribeiro remembers that, in addition to Mandarin and Cantonese, he spoke three other Chinese dialects – so well that he would translate for Chinese merchants from different areas when negotiating with each other.

  
  

  Yet at the age of 14 he could neither read nor write. However, recognising his potential, his mother enrolled him in the one of the leading Macau colleges ­ the Colégio de São José ­ but, while still a student, he was engaged as an interpreter by the Macau Department of Chinese Affairs. At the age of 24, he sought new challenges, moving to Hong Kong where he became one of the first correspondents for the Hong Kong Daily Press.

  
  

  Pedro suffered from diabetes and, when he then contracted malaria in Hong Kong, he decided to return to the Department of Chinese Affairs in Macau. In 1868, after his return to Macau, he married an Englishwoman, Edith Maria Angier. Edith's father, < Frederick John Angier, was a newspaper proprietor in Hong Kong, so it is possible that he knew Pedro, but Edith was not brought up by her father, so we do not know. In Macau Pedro was very friendly with Bernardino de Senna Fernandes, and they worked together on many major activities.

  One of those arose in 1870, when the Portuguese Government ordered the expulsion of all foreign teachers from Portuguese schools ­ including in Macau. This had a huge impact on Macau, and, as one response, in September 1871 a group of 19 wealthy and influential Macanese got together and decided to establish a body to promote the commercial education of the Macanese. So was born Associação Promotora da Instrução dos Macaenses (APIM). Both Pedro and Bernardino were members of that group, and Pedro worked so tirelessly to establish a school to achieve APIM's aims that, when it was opened, it was called the Escola Comercial Pedro Nolasco and he was appointed its first Director. 150 years later, the school and APIM continue on today ­ the school is now known simply as Escola Portuguesa, and APIM undertakes a range of cultural and educational activities, and is a major contributor to the Encontros*.

  Pedro was also the driving force behind the establishment of the Santa Casa da Misericórdia, of which Bernardino became the commissioner, and the Asilo dos Orfãos (orphanage) in Macau. He, too, was active in politics and went on to be elected as Vice President and then President of the Leal Senado (the equivalent of the city council).

  Throughout all of this, he remained working with the Department of Chinese Affairs, being retired in 1892 at the age of 50 (on the grounds that the health authorities deemed him incapable of doing any work!). Clearly, Pedro did not share that view, and three years later, in 1895, he established the Farmácia Popular pharmacy in the square in front of the Leal Senado &ndash.
