  • El Brasil monárquico

    Roderick J BarmanARTICLEHispanic American Historical Review2016

    The Empire of Brazil existed from 1822 to 1889 or, more generously, it extended from 1808, when the Portuguese crown settled in Rio de Janeiro, to its fall in 1889. As the only indigenous, long-lasting monarchy in the New World, the empire is not easy to place in historical context given the consensus in both Brazil and Latin America that the region is intrinsically republican. The main title and the first subtitle of Professor Jurandir Malerba's…

  • Ronald Charles Newton (1933 - 2010)

    Roderick J BarmanARTICLEHispanic American Historical Review2011Citada por: 1Referencias: 10

    I remember Ron Newton above all for his helpfulness and his kindness. When I was interviewed at the University of British Columbia in 1971, I telephoned him to ask about life in Vancouver. He gave me, whom he did not know from Adam, much good information and advice, both then and after my arrival at UBC. Despite our two universities being an hour’s drive apart and our houses being separated by the Lion’s Gate Bridge, we kept in regular touch over…

  • Índios no império do Brasil

    Roderick J BarmanARTICLEHispanic American Historical Review2010

    The indigenous peoples of what is now Brazil cannot be said to be neglected as a subject of scholarly research, but equally they do not figure in the first line in either Brazil or North America. Investigations of racial relations tend to focus on the African-Portuguese mix with scant regard to the fact that in the colonial and imperial periods Brazil was a tri-racial society. Works that focus on the indigenous peoples are accordingly to be welco…

  • Joaquim Nabuco

    Roderick J BarmanARTICLEHispanic American Historical Review2008

    The career of Joaquim Nabuco in the Brazil of the late Empire and early Republic much resembled a shooting star that briefly flames across the heavens, catching everyone’s eye, before it vanishes into the void. The “spoilt child” of the Empire in João Capistrano de Abreu’s phrase, Nabuco found inspiration and purpose in the campaign against slavery. With the achievement of abolition in 1888 and the fall of the Empire in 1889, he lost direction an…

  • Nas trincheiras da cura

    Roderick J BarmanARTICLEHispanic American Historical Review2006

    Human beings fall sick; sometimes they recover, but at times they die. Human intervention — whether psychological, surgical, or pharmaceutical — seeks to prevent death and promote recovery. Such intervention is uncertain and sometimes even counterproductive. This reality explains why, in the Western world, the practice of healing (what we term medicine) is so contested and so intolerant. Competing schools claim exclusive effectiveness for their t…

  • Assombrações de um padre regente, Diogo Antônio Feijó (1784 - 1843)

    Roderick J BarmanARTICLEHispanic American Historical Review2006

    Diogo Antônio Feijó was and is an enigma: in outlook and behavior made up of what seem to be incompatible, even contradictory assumptions and actions. Like President Floriano Peixoto in 1891 – 94, Feijó was a “strong man” (homem de ferro) who in 1831 – 32 saved the Brazilian regime from its foes. In contrast to Floriano (whom death soon removed), Feijó went on to a disastrous term of regent (1835 – 37) and, even though confined to a wheelchair, a…

  • Brazil in British and Irish Archives

    Roderick J BarmanARTICLEHispanic American Historical Review2004

    This work compels admiration for the compiler’s industry and determination. British and Irish archival collections are numerous, diverse in purpose, and often difficult to access. Oliver Marshall gives us, almost 30 years after Peter Walne’s A Guide to Manuscript Sources for the History of Latin America and the Caribbean in the British Isles (Oxford Univ. Press, 1973), a systematic and inclusive survey of all manuscript materials relating, even t…

  • English-Speaking Communities in Latin America

    Roderick J BarmanARTICLEHispanic American Historical Review2003

    During the long nineteenth century, Britain’s influential presence in Latin America encompassed diplomacy, mercenaries, trade, banking, settlement, immigration, and cultural models. Great Britain’s power and success accounts for much of this influence, but the extraordinary diversity of the British presence in terms of its origins, religion, and class was what made it so effective. Witness Buenos Aires merchant Joshua Waddington, born into an Ang…

    On January 28, 1808, the ports of Brazil, hitherto restricted to Portuguese vessels, were thrown open to direct trade with all friendly nations. Two months later, the ban on manufacturing in the colony was lifted. In October theBanco do Brasilwas authorized as a bank of issue designed to supply the government's credit needs and to foster internal and external trade. The most urgent financial needs of the Portuguese government, which in November 1…
