Góis (also Goes) was born in Alenquer, Portugal, into a noble family who served the Portuguese kings – the grandfather, Gomes Dias de Góis, had been in the entourage of Prince Henry the Navigator.
A humanist and an open mind, Góis followed courses at the Universities of Padua and Leuven, wrote on various topics, like the condition of the Laponians, and translated some classic works – among them, Cicero’s Cato maior de senectute – into Portuguese.
He was also a composer of some musical pieces and kept a private collection of paintings.
