Dear Cristiana,
Thank you for your message. 
I do not know what primary sources you are referring to. I have based all my comments on your publications and sources you cited in your publications and other sources that are also cited. The secondary sources I cited have primary sources cited in them.
Likewise I would also be happy to be proven wrong if there is evidence proving that I am wrong. I also have no vested interest in supporting or not supporting any ideology. I will have other comments forthcoming and you may want to wait until I am all done.
With best regards,
Sincerely,
John

Dear Dr Figueiredo: 

It is extremely flattering that you are reading my work so closely, and I thank you for that, despite the fact that  you attribute to my person some intentions and opinions that are quite off the mark. I have no ideological project and no personal positionality regarding these matters. I read documents, manuscripts and other sources to come up with my interpretations, in dialogue with international and state-of-the-art scholarship, as any scholar should do; if you want to refute them, you are fully entitled to do so, and I would be very happy to be proven wrong if you find facts on primary sources. So far, however, your endnotes only refer to secondary sources, which as you know carry the multiple biases of their authors. 

Wishing well to you and to all GRNetters, 

cristiana
