Portuguese Jews and New Christians in Colonial Brazil, 1500-1822

The diaspora of Portuguese Jews and New Christians, known as Gente da Nação (People of the Nation), is considered the largest European diaspora of the early modern period. Portuguese Jews not only founded the first congregations and synagogues in Brazil (Recife and Olinda), but when they left Brazil they played an imperative role in establishing the first Jewish communities in Suriname, throughout the Caribbean, and in North America. Drawing on nearly twenty thousand digitized dossiers of the Portuguese Inquisition, this volume offers a comprehensive, critical overview informed by both relatively inaccessible secondary sources and a significant body of primary sources.

From the sixteenth century on, hundreds of Portuguese New Christians began to flow to Venice and Livorno in Italy, and to Amsterdam and Hamburg in northwest Europe. In those cities and later in London, Bordeaux, and Bayonne as well, Iberian conversos established their own Jewish communities, openly adhering to Judaism. Despite the features these communities shared with other confessional groups in exile, what set them apart was very significant. In contrast to other European confessional communities, whose religious affiliation was uninterrupted, the Western Sephardic Jews came to Judaism after a separation of generations from the religion of their ancestors. In this edited volume, several experts in the field detail the religious and cultural changes that occurred in the Early Modern Western Sephardic communities. "Highly recommended for all academic and Jewish libraries." - David B Levy, Touro College, NYC, in: Association of Jewish Libraries News and Reviews 1.2 (2019)

How can a World Heritage city develop within the periphery of a Brazilian metropolis? This is the challenge for Olinda, near Recife. It is one of the first cities in Brazil, founded in 1535, and contains large historic monuments, such as convents. The location of Olinda on a hill next to the Atlantic Ocean, makes up a beautiful townscape, in particular seen from nearby Recife. No major historic city in Brazil offers such an extended landscape within the city itself. Olinda is an independent municipality with almost 370,000 inhabitants. The municipality has the characteristics of the typical pe.

Scholarship on the formation of the Atlantic world through contributions from Europe, Africa and the Americas has grown in recent decades. The results offer new understandings of the transformations in ethnic and religious identity faced by peoples from all the surrounding continents. Long used by scholars of Jewish studies, records from the Spanish and Portuguese Inquisitions have become an important source for historians of Africans and Amerindians in the Iberian colonial orbit. Using these and other materials, this book explores race, religion and politics among three newly and incompletely Christianized groups in the seventeenth century: Judeoconversos, Afroiberians and Amerindians. This fresh cross-cultural analysis brings these differing trajectories into dialogue.

Síntese da dissertação de mestrado em Educação de João Carlos Zirpoli Leite, defendida em 2009, este livro contribui para o debate sobre as políticas públicas de educação ao abordar a reforma pedagógica ocorrida no tradicional Ginásio Pernambucano (GP) do Recife, em decorrência de parcerias do governo estadual com empresas privadas da área de educação, entre 1998 e 2006. O autor levanta a hipótese de que a reforma do GP se configurou como uma transição da gestão pública para a gestão privada e com base em pesquisa bibliográfica busca identificar o processo de reforma, os pressupostos legais, a relação do governo com as empresas privadas, os critérios para a seleçã...

Além do talento na área musical, o flautista, compositor e produtor Zé da Flauta revela-se grande contador de casos e histórias neste livro de memórias. Presente na cena musical desde os anos 1970, quando teve início o movimento conhecido como Psicodelia Pernambucana - o Udigrudi - ele foi elemento essencial na construção do Rock pernambucano, como ritmo e comportamento. As memórias de mais de cinco décadas convivendo com a música em diversos gêneros (do rock ao armorial, passando pelo forró e pelo jazz), em Pernambuco e no Brasil, fazem de Zé da Flauta a pessoal ideal para contar dos bastidores dos diversos movimentos musicais e das apresentações de que participou, desde os antigos festivais de música dos anos 1970/1980 até hilários episódios recentes acontecidos na Índia, quando acompanhava a Spok Frevo Orchestra, que ele fundou.

Era junho de 1969. Precisamente, dia 28, quando um grupo de homossexuais reagiu à violência policial num bar no Greenwich Village, em Nova York. Essa reação reverberou e fez com que surgissem as paradas para celebrar a diversidade, mostrar orgulho e resistência. Para abordar o assunto, neste Mês da Diversidade, trazemos histórias de pessoas que, de algum modo, transitam pelas diversas possibilidades de se identificar e de (se) amar. Os depoimentos de Ana e Gigi, Samuel, Gabriel, Aurora, Bryanna, Amiel, Maria e Sam, coletados com uma escuta atenta e sensível pela repórter especial Luciana Veras e pela jornalista em formação Tanit Rodrigues, mostram como as caixas, os estereótipos ...
