Uma Vila Esclavagista
Este artigo investiga proprietários de escravizados e seus bens humanos numa vila portuária fundada no sul de Angola, Moçâmedes, em meados do século XIX. Baseia-se num registro de 1855, de proprietários de escravizados e seus cativos, para compreender melhor os habitantes desta paisagem urbana costeira fundada quinze anos antes. Ao contrário da cidade imposta ao deserto por "homens" de pele clara, pintada por observadores coloniais e pós-colonial…
Fortunato da Costa Family
This paper reconstructs the history of the Fortunato da Costa family, from the first appearance of its constituting members in Portugal, during the Napoleonic invasion of 1808, through the nation's political turmoil of the late 1820s and early 1830s, the family's relocation to São Tomé and Príncipe around 1838-1839, amidst significant Creole-metropolitan tensions on the islands, as well as "intrusions" from the British Anti-Slave Trade Squadron, …
Fontes eclesiásticas para a história de Angola antes de 1900
Esta contribuição concentra-se no acervo do Arquivo do Bispado de Luanda, um dos mais subestimados, mas importantes repositórios de documentos para a história de Angola. Centrando-nos nas freguesias de Luanda e de Benguela, apresentamos primeiro um inventário genérico do seu acervo principal, com cada corpus descrito até o final do século XIX. Em segundo lugar, oferecemos vários exemplos de como esses documentos eclesiásticos foram e podem ser us…

Women along the Catumbela River, 1797
This paper investigates the multifaceted roles of women along the Catumbela River Basin, the “breadbasket” of Benguela, during a particular moment of its long agricultural history. It draws, first and foremost, upon an as yet unexploited census carried out along this river in 1797, which followed a short period of particularly high numbers of slaves being exported into the Atlantic world through Benguela. My contribution focuses on women in agric…
Perspectivas contemporâneas sobre o mundo lusófono
Em um contexto de intensificação das relações comerciais e culturais entre países no âmbito internacional e do incremento na formação de blocos determinados por diversa gama de afinidades e interesses comuns, os vínculos entre os países de língua portuguesa têm despertado um crescente interesse por parte das pesquisas acadêmicas no âmbito das Ciências Humanas e Sociais (Antropologia, História, Sociologia, Ciência Política e Relações Internacionai…
Alcohol under the Context of the Atlantic Slave Trade
This contribution sheds light on one aspect of the history of alcohol in Africa by exploring the introduction of foreign drinks, the various systems through which they were delivered to consumers, and their impact upon patterns of consumption at Benguela and its hinterland, a major supply region of the Atlantic slave trade that has hitherto received little attention. Drawing upon a variety of quantitative and qualitative sources, it argues that a…
Experiences of Enslavement in West Central Africa
Du début des années 1500 jusqu'en 1830, l'esclavage a marqué de son omniprésence la quasi-totalité de l'Afrique occidentale et centrale. Des millions de personnes ont été enlevées, beaucoup pour la filière atlantique et d'autres pour la filière intérieure de l'esclavage. La traite des esclaves a stimulé la prolifération de la violence et de l'insécurité puisque les enlèvements se faisaient au moyen de guerres, de raids, de kidnappings, de trahiso…
