Download Portuguese Presence In India During The 16th & 17th Centuries Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The seven papers included in the first part of this volume cover diverse themes, and pertain to the different coastal regions of India where the Portuguese established themselves as conquerors, traders, settlers, adventurers and missionaries in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The first essay examines the nature of social urbanism and the growth of the Portuguese city of San Thome, which was an important commercial cum religious centre in the Coromandel region during the period under review. The next essay studies aspects of agricultural production, particularly the cultivation of pepper in the Malabar region, which was a pivotal zone of Portuguese presence and their commercial activities. The third article focuses on the the role of the Portuguese in deltaic Bengal and the Arakan region where several important trade centres such as Chittagong and Hughli grew up due to the initiative of the Portuguese. The fourth paper examines the nature of responses by local society to the propagation of Christianity by the Portuguese Catholic Church in coastal western India, particularly the Goa region. The following paper focuses on the problems faced by the Society of Jesus in its functioning. It examines the changing role of the Jesuits, their Indianization and the decline of the Estado da India. The penultimate paper examines the role of ecclesiastical establishments such as the bishoprics and the misericórdia in India, as components of the overall Portuguese oceanic enterprise. The seventh and last paper pertains to the existential crisis faced by the Portuguese from the mid-seventeenth century onwards following the conquest of Portuguese settlements by the Dutch Company in the Coromandel Ceylon macro-region. It examines the emergence of the English town of Madras as a key area of settlement for the displaced Portuguese, and their emergence as a large and important segment of its population as soldiers, traders and settlers, while retaining their Portuguese Catholic identity.

The studies brought together in this volume were published over the last thirty years and are concerned, directly or indirectly, with the Portuguese presence in India between about 1500 and 1650. They have been arranged into four groups of which the first, 'The Portuguese in India', includes pieces on the changing character of the empire in India, Goa in the 17th century, the Portuguese India Company of 1628-33, smugglers, the great famine of the early 1630s and the ceremonial induction process for new viceroys. A second group focuses on the life, career and background of the count of Linhares, before, during and after his term as viceroy at Goa. The third group consists of studies on travel and communications between India and Portugal, both by sea and by land. The collection concludes with studies under the heading of 'historiography and problems of interpretation', on Charles Boxer as a biographer, and on Vasco da Gama's reputation for violence.

Download The Arabian Seas: The Indian Ocean World of the Seventeenth Century Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The Arabian Seas is a magisterial work on the world political economy (trade, war, power) that explores the intersect of the worlds of Islam (including South and Southeast Asia, the Middle East and East Africa) and the European world-economy (particularly the seafaring Portuguese, Dutch, and British) on the eve of the modern world system. It is likely to become a classic in its field and one of the pillars of the emerging literature in recent years that has begun to recast our understanding of the "early modern history" of Asia and the world economy, underlining the early and long predominance of Asia in the world economy and showing the long and deep ties between European and Asian economic and military interactions. This work centrally addresses current debates on the nature of the early modern world system and the relative strengths of East and West. There are no competitors for this book, but it may be compared with Braudel's masterful studies of the Mediterranean in the sense that it does for the Arabian Seas (Indian Ocean World) spanning South Asia, the Middle East, and the East African Coast and beyond what Braudel did for the Mediterranean.

Download Unwanted Neighbours Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In December 1572 the Mughal emperor Akbar arrived in the port city of Khambayat. Having been raised in distant Kabul, Akbar, in his thirty years, had never been to the ocean. Presumably anxious with the news about the Mughal military campaign in Gujarat, several Portuguese merchants in Khambayat rushed to Akbar’s presence. This encounter marked the beginning of a long, complex, and unequal relationship between a continental Muslim empire that was expanding into south India, often looking back to Central Asia, and a European Christian maritime empire whose rulers considered themselves ‘kings of the sea’. By the middle of the seventeenth century, these two empires faced each other across thousands of kilometres from Sind to Bijapur, with a supplementary eastern arm in faraway Bengal. Focusing on borderland management, imperial projects, and cross-cultural circulation, this volume delves into the ways in which, between c. 1570 and c. 1640, the Portuguese understood and dealt with their undesirably close neighbours—the Mughals.
