Effects of the Atlantic slave trade on some West African societies
The Atlantic slave trade has for a long time been the object of elaborate studies and academic controversies. One of the last of these controversies is based on what is sometimes labelled ‘the numbers game’, the use of available trade figures in an attempt to work out the sum total of the number of Africans shipped as slaves across the Atlantic. The sudden increase in the demand for slaves cannot but have brought about considerable changes in the…

Description and Historical Account of the Gold Kingdom of Guinea (1602)
Pieter de Marees's book, Beschryvinge ende historische verhael vant Gout Koninckrijck van Gunea (Amsterdam, 1602) provides one of the earliest detailed European descriptions of West African society. Published less than ten years after the Dutch began trading in this region, it deals primarily with the Gold Coast, but also contains information on Cape Verde (Senegal), Benin (Nigeria), and Cape Lopez (Gabon). De Marees had visited most of these pla…

La « Juridiction » du Fort Saint-Antoine d'Axim
A l'époque pré-coloniale, les Européens ne revendiquèrent guère d'influence directe au-delà des murs de leurs factoreries sur la Côte de Guinée. A Elmina, depuis 1486 une cité portugaise, le Gouverneur exerçait une certaine juridiction hors des murs du château St. Georges, mais à Axim la position des Portugais était bien plus faible et souvent ils devaient faire face à des attaques africaines. Ce n'est qu'au XVIIe siècle qu'ils ont commencé à y é…

What will follow in this and subsequent papers will constitute an extended gloss of the English translation of Willem Bosman's account of the Guinea coast. This translation was published in London in 1705 under the title A New and Accurate Description of the Coast of Guinea ... and was based on the 1703 Dutch edition published in Amsterdam. For the English translation I have used the edited reprint published in 1967, which was an identical copy o…

Willem Bosman's New and Accurate Description of the Coast of Guinea
When Willem Bosman wrote his Naauwkeurige Beschryving van de Guinese- Goud-Tand- en Slavekust in 1702 the Guinea coast was perhaps enjoying more public interest in Europe than ever before. The Gold Coast and its interior had long appealed to the imagination of the western world, because it was one of the few gold-producing areas open to traders of all nations. But around 1700 interest in the whole coast of west Africa, particularly the east-west …
