Antíteses ISSN: 1984-3356 [email protected] Universidade Estadual de Londrina Brasil Vilardaga, José Carlos Identidades instáveis: UM PADRE PORTUGUÊS NO IMPÉRIO DOS FELIPES Antíteses, vol. 7, núm. 13, enero-junio, 2014, pp. 517-534 Universidade Estadual de Londrina Londrina, Brasil Available in: http://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=193331342023 Abstract This article presents part of the trajectory of the Portuguese priest Lourenço de Mendonça, who was active in the American sphere of Catholic Habsburg monarchy in the first half of the seventeenth century. Linked early in his career to the networks centered on Madrid, this priest had a long Episcopal career in the Viceroyalty of Peru, especially in the Potosi region. He later moved to the captaincies of southern Portuguese America, where he was the first bishop of Rio de Janeiro in 1639. He was taken by surprise by the Portuguese “Restoration” of 1640, when his loyalty to the new dynasty was questioned. He remained tied to Spain to the end, from which he claimed recognition. Lourenço de Mendonça was involved in mining projects in Spanish and Portuguese America; he was active and ambiguous in the debates about the presence of the Portuguese in Peru and he participated in the accusations against the violent actions of the inhabitants of São Paulo regarding indigenous people. The trajectory of Lourenço de Mendonça helps to problematize the possibilities of transition – both human and identitary - in relation to the Spanish empire and the particular context of the Iberian Union of the Crowns (1580-1640). Keywords Catholic Monarchy, Lourenço de Mendonça, Identities, Iberian Union, Connections.

The Castilians Discover Siam: Changing Visions and Self-Discovery
THE CASTILIANS DISCOVER SIAM: CHANGING VISIONS AND SELF-DISCOVERY Florentino ~odao' Abstract Iberians were the first people in Europe to interact directly with Siam. Centuries elapsed between the time the first information about Siam was received in the Iberian Peninsula and the period when their rulers perceived this Asian territory in a more or less coherent framework. This work studies the changes in their perception of the Kingdom of Siarn as it evolved from the earliest mythical references, in a long process that was neither uniform nor reliant merely on the receipt of data. Focusing on these early perceptions, this study notes the Iberians' different reactions to this new knowledge, the role of individuals and how the parallelprocess of their own budding national identities affected theoutcome. Introduction The Castilians and Portuguese shared similar conceptions about the "Far East" in the Middle Ages. During the Renaissance they were in a privileged position to obtain deeper knowledge about the territories in that region, their rulers and forms of government. Due to the great navigations, they established direct contact. After the Portuguese settled in Malacca in 1511 and the Castilians in the Philippines in 1565, those contacts became frequent. Hence the medieval cognitive framework used to interpret data related to Siarn was replaced by the Iberians earlier than by other Europeans. But this external process coincided with an internal evolution of the Iberians' own identities, both as individuals and as members of a society. Natural curiosity to learn about new lands and peoples, coupled with advances in science, navigation and travel, made many question traditional Christian beliefs about the world created by God for the first time.

CHAPTER II THE IBERIAN CROWN The Iberian union If one follows the arguments of the Portuguese historian Oliveira Marques, by the end of the 16th century there would have been few reasons, geographical, social, economical or even cultural, why 1 Portugal should have remained a separate state.F F The Portuguese and Castilian monarchs and their divided aristocracies, had, by means of war and strategic marriage policies, always vied with each other for the sole sovereignty over the peninsula and when Cardinal Dom Henrique, the rei inquisitador, died in 1580, Philip II of Spain's insistence on being recognized as his successor did not come as a surprise. At least in Portugal, he had the support of the majorities of the groups in power: the aristocracy, the higher clergy, the Portuguese Jesuits and the merchants in the big towns. Making his claims stick was however another matter and took considerable political manoeuvering and the use of military force. It was only five years ago that the Castilian Estado had been declared

The European Voyages of Exploration: Portugal Scholars Typically Date
The European Voyages of Exploration: Portugal Scholars typically date the European Age of Exploration, or the Age of Discovery, to the period beginning in the fifteenth century and continuing on through the seventeenth century. This period saw the expansion of European presence and influence throughout the world in places such as Asia, Africa, and the Americas, as the Europeans searched for new sea routes to the Far East. The empires of Spain and Portugal, in particular, played a pioneering role as leaders of overseas exploration. Today, Portugal is considered by many to have been the first global empire. During the fifteenth century, Portugal was not a leading political power in the larger dynamic of Europe’s continental politics. It lacked the population and financial resources that other European states enjoyed. However, throughout the sixteenth century, Portugal’s geographic location, its robust commercial maritime trade, and the active involvement of the Portuguese Crown allowed Portugal to emerge in the forefront of European overseas exploration and expansion. Historical Context and Background In the eighth century the Muslim Moors of Northern Africa conquered and occupied the majority of the Iberian Peninsula. Over the subsequent four centuries the region was heavily influenced by Moorish culture, which included Arabic scientific and mathematical theories that would eventually aid the Portuguese Empire in its overseas expeditions. Christian leaders continuously attempted to redeem their land from the Moors during what is now referred to as the Reconquista. While this effort took much longer in Spain, the Reconquista in what would become Portugal was nearly complete by the twelfth century.

The Dutch Moment: War, Trade, and Settlement in The
Essays in History Volume 51 (2018) Te Dutch Moment: War, Trade, and Settlement in the Seventeenth-Century Atlantic World. By Wim Klooster (Ithaca and London: Cornell University Press, 2016). Pp. 432. Cloth, $35.00. For many years, Dutch explorations and exploitations in Southeast Asia have caught the imagination of scholars. Te Dutch East India Company (VOC), armed with a carte blanche to wage war and conduct diplomacy on behalf of the Dutch Estates General, lef ample records for historians to reconstruct encounters between the company, its oﬃcials, and local rulers. Tese interactions allowed the Dutch to establish a commercial empire of signifcant consequence in the region. Te presence of the Dutch in the Americas, in contrast, seemed an empire that never was. Dutch settlement in Surinam, together with a few islands in the Caribbean, remained small in comparison to Iberian, English and French possessions. Moreover, the brief and ineﬀective colonization of Northwest Brazil contributes to the idea of failed empire in the Americas. Only Dutch complicity in the Atlantic slave trade has garnered signifcant scholarly attention. Wim Klooster’s Te Dutch Moment is a welcome contribution to the felds of Dutch and Atlantic history. Te book is the frst comprehensive study of the rise and fall of the Dutch Empire in the Atlantic between the 1620s and 1670s. It brings together valuable studies on the West India Company, Dutch relations with African and Native American peoples, the Republic’s activities in West Africa, and its settlements in the Americas. However, Te Dutch Moment is more than a compilation of research on Dutch colonization practices.

Portuguese Empire During the Period 1415-1663 and Its Relations with China and Japan – a Case of Early Globalization
JIEB-6-2018 Portuguese empire during the period 1415-1663 and its relations with China and Japan – a case of early globalization Pavel Stoynov Sofia University, Bulgaria Abstract. The Portuguese Colonial Empire, was one of the largest and longest-lived empires in world history. It existed for almost six centuries, from the capture of Ceuta in 1415, to the handover of Portuguese Macau to China in 1999. It is the first global empire, with bases in North and South America, Africa, and various regions of Asia and Oceania(Abernethy, 2000). The article considers the contacts between Portugal, China and Japan during the first imperial period of Portuguese Empire (1415-1663). Keywords: Portuguese Colonial Empire, China, Japan Introduction The Portuguese Colonial Empire, was one of the largest and longest-lived empires in world history. It existed for almost six centuries, from the capture of Ceuta in 1415, to the handover of Portuguese Macau to China in 1999. It is the first global empire, with bases in North and South America, Africa, and various regions of Asia and Oceania(Abernethy, 2000). After consecutive expeditions to south along coasts of Africa, in 1488 Bartolomeu Dias rounded the Cape of Good Hope, and in 1498 Vasco da Gama reached India. Over the following decades, Portuguese sailors continued to explore the coasts and islands of East Asia, establishing forts and factories as they went. By 1571 a string of naval outposts connected Lisbon to Nagasaki along the coasts of Africa, the Middle East, India and South Asia. This commercial network and the colonial trade had a substantial positive impact on Portuguese economic growth (1500–1800), when it accounted for about a fifth of Portugal's per-capita income (Wikipedia, 2018).

The European Union: A Union of Interfering Empires https://www.e-ir.info/2011/03/08/the-european-union-a-union-of-interfering-empires/ GORAN ILIK, MAR 8 2011 “As this process continues, we will see the emergence of a “New European Century”. Not because Europe will run the world as an empire, but because the European way of doing things will have become the world’s”. Mark Leonard[1] The inspiration which initiated this paper definitely stems from the heterogeneous, hybrid and postmodern position of the EU in the world, and above all, its power of legacy, or otherwise, the power of its heritage. Thereby, I affirm the qualitative, historical basis, upon which the EUcould impose its model of functioning on the rest of the world, especially through its former colonies, in a quiet, latent, and cooperative manner. That historical basis, actually encompasses the imperial, colonial past of the old European states, and undoubtedly legitimizes the process of ideologization / influencing of the world. Through the colonization of the continents, these European states imposed all of their spirit and worldviews on the occupied and colonized territories, and thusly, from this perspective, they’ve unconsciously secured the necessary basis for their second coming on the global
