Atualmente, as pesquisas historiográficas referentes à colonização da América Portuguesa têm apresentado novas perspectivas, que desconstroem a imagem engessada do Período Colonial ebuscam problematizar questões pouco exploradas. Por isso, nesta obra, propomos aanálise de alguns temas para estabelecer um panorama socioeconômico do período em questão, como a organização administrativa da colônia, o impacto do contato dos povos nativos com os colonizadores, a escravização de africanos e as práticas sociais e familiares da época.
O presente trabalho se volta para a história da historiografia brasileira do século XIX, a partir da análise de duas obras: o Ensaio sobre a história e estatística da Província do Espírito Santo, de José Marcelino Pereira de Vasconcellos, e as "Memórias históricas e documentadas da Província do Espírito Santo", de Braz da Costa Rubim. Através dessas duas obras, pretendemos refletir sobre as estratégias usadas pelos autores para trabalharem as especificidades da província, ao mesmo tempo que a inserem como parte do Estado monárquico brasileiro. De modo a perceber como articularam as tensões entre a experiência e a expectativa (o experimentado e o esperado; passado e futuro) por meio de referências que ligam às noções de civilização.
