Description

This scholarly examination explores the lived experiences of individuals, families and communities across Brazil and the South Atlantic during the turbulent seventeenth century when colonial powers competed for dominance. Rather than focusing solely on imperial ambitions, the book centres the perspectives of common people navigating survival amid warfare, political upheaval and competing European interests. Contributors including Catia Antunes examine how ordinary Brazilians, Dutch settlers and Portuguese colonists responded to the violent pursuit of empire, institutional pressures and daily challenges to survival. Part of the European Expansion and Indigenous Response series (Volume 41), this work published by Brill offers historians and scholars a nuanced understanding of colonial Brazil and the South Atlantic world during a crucial period when the balance of power between empires shifted dramatically. The collection combines primary research with fresh interpretative frameworks to reveal how people at all social levels adapted to and resisted the forces reshaping their world between approximately 1620 and 1660.

Key Features

Explores individual and family perspectives during the intense imperial competition between Dutch, Portuguese and Brazilian groups in the South Atlantic from 1620-1660.

Examines how ordinary people survived amid colonial occupation, empire disputes and continuous warfare that defined the seventeenth century.

Contributions from established scholars including Catia Antunes provide multiple viewpoints on European expansion and indigenous response.

Published by Brill as Volume 41 in the European Expansion and Indigenous Response academic series.

Combines primary research with interpretative analysis to reveal survival strategies and adaptation during a transformative period in Brazilian and Atlantic history.

Addresses institutional and political pressures that shaped daily life beyond the grand narratives of empire building.
