ENSAIOS - TEORIA, HISTORIA E CIENCIAS SOCIAIS
Este livro aborda os considerados problemas do conhecimento histórico no século XX, procurando analisar os temas do pensamento histórico contemporâneo como 'história e ficção', 'história e memória', e os conceitos de 'acontecimento', 'estrutura', 'narrativa', 'processo', 'representações' e 'historiografia'.
História e narrativa
A narrativa em que a história se exprime é um recurso estilístico de síntese de todo o esforço de pesquisa e entendimento que o historiador faz. Os textos deste livro apresentam ao leitor a paisagem do debate contemporâneo quanto à filosofia da história, ao papel da linguagem, ao teor empírico da investigação histórica e às relações entre esses e outros aspectos da historiografia. Autores brasileiros, europeus e americanos, aqui reunidos sob a coordenação de Jurandir Malerba, oferecem ao leitor um precioso horizonte de reflexão sobre a arte de escrever história.

Almanaque do Brasil nos tempos da Independência
"Fiel ao espírito necessariamente democrático e inclusivo da educação de qualidade, Jurandir Malerba nos proporciona uma renovada versão dos antigos almanaques. A iniciativa é inovadora não só no formato e nas cores fortes que o projeto gráfico apresenta, como na proposta teórica que carrega. Se os antigos livros do gênero costumavam trazer uma história basicamente engrandecedora, feita por personagens coloniais, masculinos e europeus, no caso desse Almanaque do Brasil nos tempos da Independência ‘a história é outra’. Apresentando todo tipo de evento, documentos escritos e visuais originais, tabelas e outros recursos, este Almanaque é uma verdadeira festa para os olhos e para as mentes. Ele é divertido, instrutivo e plural – coadunado com esses novos tempos que assistiram à entrada de mais agentes sociais na agenda brasileira. Um almanaque do Brasil e para o Brasil, que nos fará compreender uma independência diferente, realizada por todos os povos que, de fato, fizeram a história desse país. Esse um livro funciona como os bons remédios: não tem limite de alcance ou prazo de vencimento. Leia sem parar!” – Lilia M. Schwarcz
Enlightened Reform in Southern Europe and its Atlantic Colonies, c. 1750-1830
Efforts to ascertain the influence of enlightenment thought on state action, especially government reform, in the long eighteenth century have long provoked stimulating scholarly quarrels. Generations of historians have grappled with the elusive intersections of enlightenment and absolutism, of political ideas and government policy. In order to complement, expand and rejuvenate the debate which has so far concentrated largely on Northern, Central and Eastern Europe, this volume brings together historians of Southern Europe (broadly defined) and its ultramarine empires. Each chapter has been explicitly commissioned to engage with a common set of historiographical issues in order to reappraise...
Days of National Festivity in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 1823–1889
Official and popular celebrations marked the Brazilian empire's days of national festivity, and these civic rituals were the occasion for often intense debate about the imperial regime. Hendrik Kraay explores the patterns of commemoration in the capital of Rio de Janeiro, the meanings of the principal institutions of the constitutional monarchy established in 1822–24 (which were celebrated on days of national festivity), and the challenges to the imperial regime that took place during the festivities. While officialdom and the narrow elite sought to control civic rituals, the urban lower classes took an active part in them, although their popular festivities were not always welcomed by the elite. Days of National Festivity is the first book to provide a systematic analysis of civic ritual in a Latin American country over a long period of time—and in doing so, it offers new perspectives on the Brazilian empire, elite and popular politics, and urban culture.
Peopling for Profit in Imperial Brazil
Peopling for Profit provides a comprehensive history of migration to nineteenth-century imperial Brazil. Rather than focus on Brazilian slavery or the mass immigration of the end of the century, José Juan Pérez Meléndez examines the orchestrated efforts of migrant recruitment, transport to, and settlement in post-independence Brazil. The book explores Brazil's connections to global colonization drives and migratory movements, unveiling how the Brazilian Empire's engagement with privately run colonization models from overseas crucially informed the domestic sphere. It further reveals that the rise of a for-profit colonization model indelibly shaped Brazilian peopling processes and governance by creating a feedback loop between migration management and government formation. Pérez Meléndez sheds new light on how directed migrations and the business of colonization shaped Brazilian demography as well as enduring social, racial, and class inequalities.

A Global History of Modern Historiography
The first book on historiography to adopt a global and comparative perspective on the topic, A Global History of Modern Historiography looks not just at developments in the West but also at the other great historiographical traditions in Asia, the Middle East, and elsewhere around the world over the course of the past two and a half centuries. This second edition contains fully updated sections on Latin American and African historiography, discussion of the development of global history, environmental history, and feminist and gender history in recent years, and new coverage of Russian historical practices. Beginning in the mid-eighteenth century, the authors analyse historical currents in a...
Current Trends in Slavery Studies in Brazil
African slaves were brought into Brazil as early as 1530, with abolition in 1888. During those three centuries, Brazil received 4,000,000 Africans, over four times as many as any other American destination. Comparatively speaking, Brazil received 40% of the total number of Africans brought to the Americas, while the US received approximately 10%. Due to this huge influx of Africans, today Brazil’s African-descended population is larger than the population of most African countries. Therefore, it is no surprise that Slavery Studies are one of the most consolidated fields in Brazilian historiography. In the last decades, a number of discussions have flourished on issues such as slave agency,...
