ALIDA C. METCALF | Millenarian Slaves? The Santidade de Jaguaripe and Slave Resistance in the Americas | The American ... I maintain that the Santidade de Jaguaripe is more fully understood as the impulse of the dominated in an alien colonial environment to create a new world and new identities for themselves, appropriating not only their own cultural traditions but also syncretic beliefs, language, and rituals drawn from their immediate experience in colonial society. This description of the Santidade de Jaguaripe is drawn from the denunciation of Álvaro Rodrigues in the trial of Domingos Fernandes Nobre, Inquisição de Lisboa, hereafter, IL, 10,776, Arquivo Nacional da Torre do Tombo (Lisbon), hereafter, ANTT; and the confession of Gonçalo Fernandes, in his trial, IL 17,762, ANTT.

Brazil History In 1549 the king sent Tome de Sousa to be the first governor of Brazil, to centralize authority and save the few remaining captaincies. Aged just 15, Dom Pedro II received the title of Emperor and Perpetual Defender of Brazil, precipitating one of the most prosperous spells in the country's history, barring the war with Paraguay in 1865. Using the notorious Departamento de Imprensa e Propaganda (Depart­ment of Press and Publicity, or DIP as it was known), his regime censored artists, imprisoned dissidents and even destroyed the newsroom of one unlucky Sao Paulo broadsheet. www.visaexpress.net /brazil/history.htm   (7371 words)

[Goanet]Goanet News Bytes * Apr 1, 2005 * Churchill-Luizinho at war   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25) Philomena Siqueira Antony, reader and Head of the Department of History at the Chowgule College (Margao, Goa), complements these recent findings in general and deepens them specifically vis-a-vis the Brazilian mainstay of the declining Portuguese colonial economy. In eight chapters of the book, Philomena Siqueira Antony has tried to contextualize her findings in the intra-colonial and intra-peripheral frameworks of the Portuguese imperial economy in the prevailing world economic situation. While Philomena Siqueira Antony has brought a plethora of archival data to buttress the economic interchange between the two capitals of the distant regions of the Portuguese colonial empire, she has not ignored the socio-political aspects, including the ostensibly discriminating treatment by the metropolitan colonial authorities of their Brazilian and their Indian subjects. www.mail-archive.com /goanet@goanet.org/msg24137.html   (2914 words)
