Requests for permission for extended quotation form or reproduction of this manuscript in whole or in part may be granted by the copyright holder SIGNED: 4 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to express my deep and enduring gratitude to those who have not only made this dissertation possible, but have contributed to my growth as an individual and as a scholar. My wife, Jessica, deserves much of the credit for the successful completion of this work. She has remained by my side and has gracefully suffered the long, and often trying, years of graduate school and its accompanying economic and emotional struggle. She and my children have had to go without a husband and a father as I have wandered through the twists and turns of inquisitional history and the history of colonial Pemambuco, and they have endured many hours of discussions on topics they would probably have liked to have forgotten. Likewise, Jessica has read every word of this dissertation, not once, but several times, through its many drafts, and has contribute her editorial skill and comments. To her I owe the deepest debt of gratitude. My parents have also provided much needed emotional support throughout all the long years of schooling, never doubting that I could finish the degree. Their visit to Portugal while I was researching allowed me to share with them not only this project, but my love for the Portuguese language and culture. 1 would also like to thank all of the professors, both undergraduate and graduate, who have contributed to my intellectual growth and offered guidance and examples of excellence. Bert Barickman has endured my failings and offered acute and penetrating commentary on my work which has been essential to my growth as a scholar and to the successful conclusion of this project. Helen Nader and Kevin Gosner also read this woik and contributed their insights and support. Luiz Mott pointed me in the right direction when I first began the project and offered valuable information and advice along the way. David Higgs offered his long experience and vast knowledge about Portugal, Brazil, and the Inquisition and was always available to field my many questions. David Higgs and Guilherme Pereira das Neves shared my interest in Bernardo Luis Ferreira Portugal, Joaquim Marques de Araujo, and Bishop Azeredo Coutinho, offered much needed knowledge and insight, and shared their work on these men with me. Maria Beatriz Nizza da Silva kindly gave her support to the project, gave me relevant articles, and invited me to share some of my work at a colloquium in Lisbon while I was still researching. Likewise, many other friends and colleagues, too many to name, have offered guidance and companionship along the way. To all of you, I say thank you. I express my gratitude to the little band of Brazilian researchers who shared my comer of the Torre do Tombo and with whom I laughed and worked and who shared their knowledge and fnendship with me and helped me wade through some of the difficult Portuguese paleography. Likewise, the staff of the Torre do Tombo, the Arquivo Ultramarino, and the Biblioteca.Nacional where I spent many hours, were kind and helpful and provided me with documents that would otherwise have l)een inaccessible. Their fKendship and kindness were essential, not only to the completion of this work, but to the enjoyment that I derived from it. I am, likewise, indebted to the institutions which so graciously offered their financial support for this research. The Tinker Grant and the fellowship with the Luso-American Development Foundation and the Portuguese National Library provided the financial assistance that allowed me to get the research off the ground in the summer of 1998. A Fulbright Full Grant and another Luso-American Development Foundation fellowship with the Torre do Tombo firom September 1999 to August 2000 permitted me to complete the research. A Dean's Dissertation Fellowship from the University of Arizona allowed me write full-time during the 2001-2002 school year. To all of those mentioned here and to a multitude of others, scholars, friends, and colleagues, that I cannot mention personally, I offer a heart felt thanks and the hope of a long and continued association. 5 To my wife, Jessica, and our four wonderful children, Mark, EnunaLynn, Sidney, and Abigail and to my father and mother for their love and support 6 TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS 10 LIST OF TABLES 11 LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS 13 A NOTE ON PORTUGUESE ORTHOGRAPHY AND CURRENCY 15 ABSTRACT 16 Chapter 1.

  • The Early Brazilian Sugar Industry, 1550-1670

LXV, núm. 233 Págs. 79-116, ISSN: 0034-8341 «A COMMONWEALTH WITHIN ITSELF». THE EARLY BRAZILIAN SUGAR INDUSTRY, 1550-1670 POR STUART B. SCHWARTZ Yale University Este ensayo examina los contornos básicos de la economía del azúcar en Brasil entre 1550 y 1660, cuando se convirtió en la principal productora de dicho artículo en el mundo atlántico. Comienza analizando el amplio espectro que situó al país en el contexto del sistema comercial euro-americano, para estudiar luego las condiciones locales y los desafíos específicos de la tierra, el trabajo y el capital a los que hizo frente la industria cañera brasileña temprana y que le confi- rieron un carácter y unos contornos peculiares. Finalmente investiga la rápida expansión del sec- tor hasta 1620 y las razones por las que su crecimiento se estancó, incluso antes del ascenso de nuevos competidores en el Caribe después de 1650. PALABRAS CLAVES: Brasil, Portugal, Holanda, siglos XVI-XVII, azúcar, mercado, factores de producción. The first contacts with Brazil did not generate much interest in Portugal so long as that distant shore was seen only as a place to obtain dyewood or tropical curiosities. By the 1530s, however, the introduction of sugar cane and the begin- nings of a sugar industry had begun to transform Brazil, especially its northeas- tern coast, into a colony of settlement. The sugar estates, by their nature and by their socially and «racially» segmented populations, eventually determined much of the structure of the colony and of its society.

  • Birth of a Nation-State, 1800S–1830S
    Cambridge University Press 0521827493 - A History of Chile, 1808-2002 - Second Edition Simon Collier and William F. Sater Excerpt More information PART I Birth of a nation-state, 1800s–1830s Established by Spanish conquistadors in the 1540s, the “captaincy-general” of Chile developed as a small and neglected agrarian colony on the fringe of the Spanish American empire, its isolation enhancing what became after two-and- a-half centuries a distinctive embryonic national culture. The formation of great landed estates sharply stratified colonial society, the predominantly mestizo laboring poor dominated by an upper class modified by eighteenth- century immigration, much of it Basque (Chapter 1). The wars of indepen- dence brought the Chilean nation-state into being: its soldiers and sailors played a key role in the emancipation of the viceroyalty of Peru. The quest of the new nation’s early leaders for a suitable political order culminated in a comprehensive settlement by Conservative politicians in the 1830s. This gave the country a record of institutional continuity unusual in the upheaval-prone Spanish America of the nineteenth century (Chapters 2 and 3). governments 1817–1823 General Bernardo O’Higgins 1823–1826 General Ramon´ Freire 1827–1829 General Francisco Antonio Pinto 1829–1830 Junta 1830 Francisco Ruiz Tagle 1830–1831 Jose´ Tomas Ovalle 1831 Fernando Errazuriz´ 1831–1841 General Joaquın´ Prieto 1 © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 0521827493 - A History of Chile, 1808-2002 - Second Edition Simon Collier and William F.

  • A Forgotten Century of Brazilwood: the Brazilwood Trade from the Mid-Sixteenth to Mid-Seventeenth Century
    A Forgotten Century of Brazilwood: The Brazilwood Trade from the Mid-Sixteenth to Mid-Seventeenth Century Cameron J. G. Dodge1 Abstract The brazilwood trade was the first major economic activity of colonial Brazil, but little research has examined the trade after the middle of the sixteenth century. This study describes the emergence of the trade and the subsequent changes that allowed it to overcome the commonly-cited reasons for its presumed decline within a century of its beginnings, namely coastal deforestation and a shrinking supply of indigenous labor. Examining the brazilwood trade on its own apart from comparisons with sugar reveals an Atlantic commercial activity that thrived into the middle of the seventeenth century. Keywords Brazilwood, economic history of Brazil, colonial Brazil, royal monopoly, Atlantic history Resumo O comércio do pau-brasil foi a primeira atividade econômica do Brasil colonial mas pouca pesquisa tinha examinado o comércio depois o meio do século XVI. Este estudo descreve o surgimento do comércio e as mudanças subsequentes que o permitiu superar as razões citadas para seu presumido declínio em menos de um século do seu início, a saber desmatamento litoral e diminuição da oferta de mão- de-obra indígena. Examinar o comércio do pau-brasil sozinho sem comparações a açúcar revela um comércio atlântico que prosperou até o meio do século XVII. Palavras-chave Pau-brasil, história econômica do brasil, Brasil colonial, monopólio real, História Atlântica 1University of Virginia, USA.
