Title: | Os Negros da Terra Verde: (guerra e captura de escravos na costa ocidental africana, 1433-1448) | Other Titles: | The Blacks of the Green Land: (warfare and slave capture on the West Coast of Africa, 1433-1448) | Authors: | Duarte, Luís Miguel | Issue Date: | 2009 | Publisher: | Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra | Abstract: | Com base na "Crónica dos Feitos da Guiné", de Gomes Eanes de Zurara,
pretende-se estudar a experiência portuguesa de guerra contra os muçulmanos e de captura de escravos na costa ocidental africana, e sobretudo o encontro
com a Terra dos Negros', na Senegambia, com novas condições geográficas e
novos modos de combater, entre 1433 (início do reinado de D. Duarte) e 1448
(termo da regência do Infante D. Pedro). Procura-se levar em conta algumas
preocupações recentes da história militar, evitando tanto quanto possível um
excessivo etnocentrismo. Based on Gomes Eanes de Zurara's "Chronicle of the Feats of Guinea", the purpose of this article is to address the Portuguese experience of warfare against Muslims, as well as slave capture on the west coast of Africa, especially the encounter with the "Land of Blacks", in Senegambia, and the confrontation with new geographical circumstances and new ways of fighting, between 1433 (the beginning of King Duarte's reign) and 1448 (the end of Prince Pedro's regency). The author seeks to take into account recent concerns of military history, avoiding an excessive ethnocentrism as far as possible. |
