Description

Explore the profound impact of the African diaspora through Origins of the Black Atlantic: New Histories. Published by Routledge, this work examines the period between 1492 and 1820, a time when approximately two-thirds of people crossing the Atlantic to the Americas were Africans. This book provides a deep look into how European empires settled more Africans in the New World than Europeans, with the exception of the Spanish. It examines how the labor of enslaved men and women on plantations formed the foundation for the expansion of the Atlantic economy throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Moving beyond traditional narratives, this text addresses the historical gap regarding the perspectives, daily experiences, and hopes of these individuals. It also investigates the political ideas that shaped their lives. This is an essential resource for students and readers interested in world history, slavery, and the complex social structures of the Atlantic world.
