The Portuguese in the Creole Indian Ocean (eBook, PDF)

Essays in Historical Cosmopolitanism

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This monograph is an exploration of the historical legacy of the Portuguese in the Indian Ocean, in particular in Goa, Macau, Melaka, and Malabar. Instead of fixing the gaze on either the colonial or the indigenous, it attempts to scrutinise a creole space that is rooted in Indian Ocean cosmopolitanism.
