Issue
Afonso de Albuquerque had a bastard son from an unknown woman. He legitimized the boy in February 1506. Upon his death he asked king Manuel I to leave him all his wealth and that he took care of his education. When Albuquerque died, king Manuel I renamed the child "Afonso" in his father's memory. Brás Afonso de Albuquerque, or Braz in the old spelling, was born in 1500 and died in 1580.

Famous quotes containing the word issue:
“An artist is a man of action, whether he creates a personality, invents an expedient, or finds the issue of a complicated situation.”
—Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
“We find it easy to set limits when the issue is safety.... But 99 percent of the time there isn’t imminent danger; most of life takes place on more ambiguous ground, and children are experts at detecting ambivalence.”
—Cathy Rindner Tempelsman (20th century)
“Modern equalitarian societies ... whether democratic or authoritarian in their political forms, always base themselves on the claim that they are making life happier.... Happiness thus becomes the chief political issue—in a sense, the only political issue—and for that reason it can never be treated as an issue at all.”
—Robert Warshow (1917–1955)
