Adrift on an Inland Sea
Adrift on an Inland Sea assesses the limits of Portuguese imperial information gathering and administrative control in unconsolidated interior territories (sertões) by interpreting four frontier expeditions that took place in the Captaincy of Minas Gerais, Brazil, from the 1750s onward. Hal Langfur demonstrates how opportunists, government officials, and scientists depended on Indigenous and Afro-descendant intermediaries to attain their objectiv…

Press, Power, and Culture in Imperial Brazil
In this volume, 12 North American and Brazilian scholars explore the evolution of the press during Brazil's imperial period (1822–89). Addressing both content and form, they interpret the press from multiple perspectives: as sources of political and commercial news, as businesses, as vehicles for socioeconomic mobility, as platforms for political and social agendas, as arbiters of taste, and as a rapidly changing genre that incorporated emerging …
Plantation Societies in the Era of European Expansion
Uatú Júpú
This essay examines the long history of resistance by Jê speaking indigenous peoples who have inhabited the basins of the Doce River and its many tributaries. It provides an overview from the colonial era to the present, examining the disparate perceptions and uses that Portuguese and Jê-speaking indigenous peoples have applied to river systems in Brazil. For native communities, the Doce is a source of both spiritual and material sustenance. Port…
Ethnohistory in the Making
This article analyzes the evolution of ethnographic texts written about Jê-speaking peoples of the interior of Minas Gerais, Brazil, from the 1760s through the 1830s. It interprets both the timing and content of these sources with reference to the emergence of Enlightenment thought, the development of a transatlantic community of letters, and the intervention of an idiosyncratic French military officer, Guido Marlière, who participated in Brazil'…

The Brazilian Rhône
This article examines attempts to modernise navigation of the Doce River in Brazil during the early nineteenth century. It focuses primarily on the development of a joint Anglo-Brazilian business venture, The Rio Doce Company (1832-49). The failure of the Rio Doce Company cannot be attributed to a single overarching cause, but reflects numerous barriers to economic development including a cumbersome regulatory bureaucracy, capital scarcity, poor …
Slavery and war in the Americas
Elizabeth "Betsy" Winchell Kiddy (1957-2014)
Betsy Kiddy, a scholar of Brazilian history and the African diaspora in the Americas, died of cancer on September 29, 2014, in her home in Reading, Pennsylvania. She is survived by her husband of 23 years, Gregory Kiddy, her parents Tony and Harriet Winchell, siblings Susan, David, and Thomas Winchell, and three nephews. Betsy's contributions were many — as dedicated scholar, educator and mentor, advocate for interdisciplinary studies, capoeira p…
Mediation through Militarization
In 1825, a Maxakali Indian and soldier named Inocencio walked several hundred miles from northeastern Minas Gerais to the royal court in Rio de Janeiro, seeking an audience with Emperor Dom Pedro I. Accompanying him were 14 Indians from the vicinity of Belmonte, a town located on the border of Bahia and Minas Gerais. The journey, requiring several weeks, took Inocencio through thickly forested hilly terrain with few established roads
The Vigorous Core of Our Nationality
Stanley Blake’s discussion of the construction of northeastern racial identity is a valuable addition to a field that tends to privilege the history of Brazil’s economically dominant center-south. Given the centrality of Gilberto Freyre’s work in establishing the parameters from which most studies of race in Brazil begin, a history of racial identities focusing on Freyre’s home state of Pernambuco seems, if anything, long overdue. Blake’s thesis …
Frontier Goiás, 1822 - 1889
In Frontier Goiás, David McCreery takes up the challenge of writing the history of an isolated backwater. In a field dominated by studies of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, this study of a “periphery of a periphery” is a refreshing change. It contributes to a small but growing literature on rural Brazil and on nineteenth-century state building. McCreery’s Goiás is remote, relatively impoverished, and underpopulated. Landlocked, it attracted mostly …

Postmodern Ethnographer in the Backlands
In 1819 José Ignacio do Couto Moreno composed this sentimental poem about his adopted hometown, a small river port in the interior of Minas Gerais. He felt compelled to write it after suffering considerable ribbing by his colleagues during a festive occasion in Rio de Janeiro. Couto Moreno was homesick, and his fellow partygoers could not resist teasing him for demonstrating nostalgia for home and hearth. They challenged him incredulously, “What …
Race, Resistance, and Regionalism
Brazil has assumed a predominant place in the study of race relations in the Americas since Gilberta Freyre published Casa grande e senzala (The Masters and the Slaves) in 1933. Trained by anthropologist Franz Boas, Freyre was one of the first Brazilian intellectuals to separate the categories of race and culture in explaining the socioeconomic and cultural position of persons of color in Brazil. Freyre argued that Brazilians of African descent h…
