  • The Influence of Disease on Race, Logistics and Colonization in the Antilles

    Francisco GuerraCHAPTERAtlantic Slave Trade2022

    Humboldt once asserted that the history of the Antilles was a narrative of sugar and slaves; these twin factors were indeed so dominant that the study of Caribbean medical history is closely interwoven with economic and racial references. Medical historians have tended to neglect the Antilles, and no information is readily available on the evolution of medicine in the Caribbean during the colonial period. Throughout the sixteenth century the Cari…
