Andr\u00e9 Paiva de Figueiredo, musician and Swiss descendant, presents the book “O Bar\u00e3o de Mato Virgem” and talks about the discoveries he made while researching his Swiss ancestors in the state of Bahia.<\/p>\n
“The personal letters of Baron Ferdinand von Steiger (1825 – 1887) – aristocrat from Bern (Switzerland) and owner of the Fazenda Vit\u00f3ria near Ilh\u00e9us (Bahia) – to his family in Europe are in the family archives of the von Steiger family in the Bern Civic Library. In the last years of his life, his brother Albert von Steiger collected these letters together with the letters of the other family members, namely his father, mother and sisters. He then kept them in the von Steiger family archive, adding to the folder administrative documents and biographies of members (such as Ferdinand) and ancestors written by himself. In 2011, the von Steiger Family Foundation donated its archive to the Bern Civic Library. It contains eighty letters written by Steiger during his life in German and French when he lived both in Europe and Brazil. The publication includes Steiger’s biography, written by his brother Albert, and forty letters written by Steiger during the time he owned the Fazenda Vit\u00f3ria. Andr\u00e9 Paiva de Figueiredo’s translation into a contemporary language captures the intimacy of a family dialogue without completely departing from the solemnity of an aristocratic conversation.”<\/p>\n
