He appealed to the masses. He was a far-right conservative Christian, but he was less radical than the Portuguese Fascist Party of the time. His campaign speeches appeased the syndicalists as well as the wealthy landowners in Portugal. However, he never was -
Cape Verde Islands, C. 1500–1879
TRANSFORMATION OF “OLD” SLAVERY INTO ATLANTIC SLAVERY: CAPE VERDE ISLANDS, C. 1500–1879 By Lumumba Hamilcar Shabaka A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of History- Doctor of Philosophy 2013 ABSTRACT TRANSFORMATION OF “OLD” SLAVERY INTO ATLANTIC SLAVERY: CAPE VERDE ISLANDS, C. 1500–1879 By Lumumba Hamilcar Shabaka This dissertation explores how the Atlantic slave trade integrated the Cape Verde archipelago into the cultural, economic, and political milieu of Upper Guinea Coast between 1500 and 1879. The archipelago is about 300 miles off the coast of Senegal, West Africa. The Portuguese colonized the “uninhabited” archipelago in 1460 and soon began trading with the mainland for slaves and black African slaves became the majority, resulting in the first racialized Atlantic slave society. Despite cultural changes, I argue that cultural practices by the lower classes, both slaves and freed slaves, were quintessentially “Guinean.” Regional fashion and dress developed between the archipelago and mainland with adorning and social use of panu (cotton cloth). In particular, I argue Afro-feminine aesthetics developed in the islands by freed black women that had counterparts in the mainland, rather than mere creolization. Moreover, the study explores the social instability in the islands that led to the exile of liberated slaves, slaves, and the poor, the majority of whom were of African descent as part of the Portuguese efforts to organize the Atlantic slave trade in the Upper th Guinea Coast. With the abolition of slavery in Cape Verde in the 19 century, Portugal used freed slaves and the poor as foot soldiers and a labor force to consolidate “Portuguese Guinea.” Many freed slaves resisted this mandatory service. -
Cavite Chabacano Philippine Creole Spanish: Description and Typology
Cavite Chabacano Philippine Creole Spanish: Description and Typology By Marilola Pérez A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Linguistics in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Associate Professor Lev D. Michael, Chair Associate Professor Richard A. Rhodes Professor William F. Hanks Fall 2015 Abstract Cavite Chabacano Philippine Creole Spanish: Description and Typology by Marilola Pérez Doctor of Philosophy in Linguistics University of California, Berkeley Associate Professor Lev D. Michael This dissertation provides a grammatical description and sociohistorical account of the Cavite variety of Philippine Creole Spanish (PCS), also known as Cavite Chabacano (CC); and analyzes how this language informs standard typological characterizations of contact languages. CC is one of three surviving varieties of Chabacano, a Spanish-lexified contact language of the Philippines. The unique status of Chabacano as the only Spanish-lexified creole in Asia presents a number of typological challenges to standard views of colonial contact languages based on prototypical plantation creoles. Most work on Chabacano assumes that it is a creole language, and only a few recent works on the Zamboanga variety of Chabacano have questioned this classification. The current work reexamines the status of Chabacano as a creole language by providing linguistic data from an understudied Chabacano variety and examining it from a typological perspective. On the descriptive front, the dissertation provides a sketch grammar that constitutes the most complete description of the language to this date. The linguistic description is supplemented with a sociohistorical reconstruction that proposes different stages in the development of CC: an initial period of koineization, a period of hispanization or ‘decreolization’, and a latter period in which more Tagalog forms were incorporated from the adstrate. -
Cultural Struggles in the Lusofonia Arena: Portuguese-Speaking Migrant Musicians in Lisbon
AFRIKA FOCUS-Volume 26, Nr. I, 2013-pp. 67-88 Cultural struggles in the lusofonia arena: Portuguese-speaking migrant musicians in Lisbon Bart P. Vanspauwen Instituto de Etnomusicologia, New University of Lisbon, Portugal Approaching music as a point of social connection in the post-colonial city of Lisbon, where cultural entrepreneurs deploy the political concept oflusofonia, this study examines the ways in which local migrant musicians from Portuguese-speaking African countries (PALOPJ, as well as Brazil and East Timor, position themselves in this context. In general, the study shows that there is a lack of recognition of the contribution they make to the expressive culture of the Portuguese capital, and this is related to national preconceptions. Surprisingly, despite several existing coun ter-discourses regarding lusofonia, all interviewed musicians do see some future relevance in this concept. They appeal to both supranational institutions and national governments, asking for structural support in order to promote and disseminate all the expressive culture of Portuguese speaking African countries, indicating that the contribution of migrant musicians from these countries should be considered as an integral part of Portugal's cultural expression and heritage.

Rethinking the Origin of Pidgin Portuguese
Portuguese // August 25, 2014 // 9562 words with references and footnotes // 20 pages Slaves and interpreters in the origin of Pidgin Portuguese1 William J. Samarin August 2014 Abstract This study contributes to the discussion about the origin of pidginized Portuguese that came to be spoken in Portugal and the Cape Verde Islands, beginning even before the 15th century. Contrary to Anthony Naro’s argument that it began in foreigner-talk that was taught to slaves in Portugal I submit evidence that there were enough slaves living on the Iberian Peninsula to have created a very different Portuguese idiom by means of faulty second-language acquisition. The study also demurs with respect to the claim by Alain Kihm and Jean-Louis Rougé that African slaves who served as interpreters were the principal figures in its origin. Finally, it is suggested that the role of alleged interpreter be understood with circumspection, a caution that arises from the study of colonization of central Africa in the 19th century. Key words: basic variety (of language), Cà da Mosto, Cape Verde Islands, children as interpreters, contact languages, ‘corrupt’ language, creoles, creolized pidgins, extended pidgins, foreigner talk, Guinea-Bissau, historiography, history in linguistics, interpreters, Kikongo, Kituba, lançados, language in trade and colonization, Língua de preto, lingua francas, linguister, Luso-Africans, Mediterranean Sabir, nativization, pidgin origins, Pidgin Portuguese, Portuguese Creole, restructured language, Sango, second language acquisition, Senegambia, slaves, theories of pidgin origins, 1 This is a revision of a study I was just about to submit for publication when the admirable work by Jacobs 2010 appeared and then Kihm & Rougé 2013. -
1965 1965 ONE RAND FIFTY CENTS Compiled by MURIEL HORRELL
1965 1965 ONE RAND FIFTY CENTS Compiled by MURIEL HORRELL SOUTH AFRICAN INSTITUTE OF RACE RELATIONS POLITICAL PARTIES NATIONALIST PARTY Statements of policy on Africans In a policy statement made in the Assembly on 5 February() Dr. Verwoerd reiterated his opinion that peace could be ensured in South Africa only by separating Whites and Africans to the maximum extent possible. "I believe in the supremacy of the White man over his people in his own territory", he said, "and I am prepared to maintain it by force." He stated that "the crux of the policy of separation is political separation"-not territorial or physical separation. "The basic standpoint is that the Bantu and the Whites will have their political future apart from one another ... The Whites will be in this Parliament . "Territorial separation", the Prime Minister continued, "is important in the sense that the further one can develop it, the greater are the chances of having good relations and of avoiding conflict." The object would be gradually to decrease the number of African workers in White areas, and, in the meanwhile, to maintain residential, educational, and social separation. These workers would not be "integrated" in the sense of being accepted as equals in the economic sphere. In terms of this policy, Dr. Verwoerd maintained, there would be no danger to the White man's position even if the numbers of Africans in White areas increased for the time being. In a subsequent statement, made in the Assembly on 7 April,2) Dr. Verwoerd said, "We have an economic and social structure here which we cannot remedy in a few years .. -
Language, Identity, and Power in Colonial Brazil, 1695- 1822
University of Cambridge Faculty of History Language, Identity, and Power in Colonial Brazil, 1695- 1822 Luciane Cristina Scarato Newnham College This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History September 2016 Summary Language, Identity, and Power in Colonial Brazil, 1695-1822 Luciane Cristina Scarato This dissertation investigates the diverse ways in which the Portuguese language expanded in Brazil, despite the multilingual landscape that predominated prior to and after the arrival of the Europeans and the African diaspora. It challenges the assumption that the predominance of Portuguese was a natural consequence and foregone conclusion of colonisation. This work argues that the expansion of Portuguese was a tumultuous process that mirrored the power relations and conflicts between Amerindian, European, African, and mestizo actors who shaped, standardised, and promoted the Portuguese language within and beyond state institutions. The expansion of Portuguese was as much a result of state intervention as it was of individual agency. Language was a mechanism of power that opened possibilities in a society where ethnic, religious, and economic criteria usually marginalised the vast majority of the population from the colonial system. Basic literacy skills allowed access to certain occupations in administration, trading, teaching, and priesthood that elevated people’s social standing. These possibilities created, in most social groups, the desire to emulate the elites and to appropriate the Portuguese language as part of their identity. This research situates the question of language, identity, and power within the theoretical framework of Atlantic history between 1695 and 1822. Atlantic history contributes to our understanding of the ways in which peoples, materials, institutions and ideas moved across Iberia, Africa and the Americas without overlooking the new contours that these elements assumed in the colony, as they moved in tandem, but also contested each other. -

0 About the Conference The ”Depths and Surfaces” conference is organized jointly by the History Expert Group and Humanities and Social Science Expert Group (HASSEG) of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR). Since 2013, the two groups have held biennial conferences: the first at the British Antarctic Survey, Cambridge; the second at Colorado State University, Fort Collins, in 2015; and the third this year in Hobart. Each conference aims to bring together humanities, creative arts and social science researchers interested in the Antarctic, fostering a community of scholars who can act in concert with natural scientists to address the issues that face the Antarctic region. In the intervening years, both groups organize sessions at the SCAR Open Science conferences. Each biennial conference focusses on a different theme. In 2017, our theme is “Depths and Surfaces: Understanding the Antarctic Region through the Humanities and Social Sciences.” This theme is intended to work on many levels. Among other things, it encourages us to expand our thinking beyond the continental to consider the marine environment of the far south – something that speaks to our location at the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies and at an Antarctic ‘gateway’ port. It draws attention to the three-dimensional nature of the ice at a time when reports of increased glacial melt are appearing almost daily, and ice core sampling is helping us to understand long-term climate patterns. And, taken metaphorically, it challenges us to go beyond surface readings of a place which, in the past, has often been uncritically labelled a “last wilderness” or “continent for science” and considered outside the purview of the HASS disciplines. -
