JohnMonteiro’sNegros da Terra is a classic in ethnohistory that launched significant research on the indigenous peoples of Brazil. This translation introduces English-speaking readers to a complex history of colonial São Paulo that challenges an older historiography that celebrated bandeirantes in the exploration of the interior and discovery of gold. Monteiro reveals how they invaded indigenous lands and took war captives, describing them as negros da terra, that is, “blacks of the land.” In the colonial period, the usage of “negro” often signified slave, thus ‘slaves of the land’ as opposed to enslaved Africans.

巴西的印度奴隶制 - 土地上的黑人:南美洲的印度奴隶制、定居者社会和葡萄牙殖民企业。作者:约翰·蒙泰罗。由 James Woodard 和 Barbara Weinstein 编辑和翻译。剑桥和纽约:剑桥大学出版社,2018 年。Pp。xxxii, 242. 前言。后记。笔记。参考书目。指数。$99.99 布;29.99 美元的纸。

约翰蒙特罗的《Negros da Terra》是民族史的经典之作,它对巴西的土著人民进行了重要的研究。该翻译向英语读者介绍了一段复杂的殖民圣保罗历史,该历史挑战了古老的历史编纂学,该编年史在内部探索和黄金发现中庆祝班代兰特人。Monteiro 揭示了他们如何入侵土著土地并俘虏战俘,将他们描述为 negros da terra,即“土地上的黑人”。在殖民时期,“negro”的用法通常表示奴隶,因此是“土地的奴隶”,而不是被奴役的非洲人。
