This course was conceptualised towards building a whole range of new information on the Euro-American (mainly Portugal-Brazil) relations during the 16th and 20th centuries. This course aims to use a large number of documents providing an opportunity of reconstructing the historical memory of Luso-Brazilian relations. We will also be providing an innovative approach to research which will make it possible for students to identify different historical periods and understand their role in the production of Luso-Brazilian historical knowledge.
