Preface

Numerous publications in a multitude of languages exist on the history of Brazil.  However, it is quite often visual or illustrative materials that most vividly convey a sense of the past to us.  Such items, published in print format, are often more difficult to encounter or acquire. 

 

The internet, however, has greatly facilitated access not only to a multitude of texts but also a wide array of visual (and audio) materials.  Web sites publish not only books and manuscripts but also provide ample access to maps, photographs, paintings, illustrations, animations, and tabular data.

 

To take advantage of these resources for Brazilian history this series of Subject Guides to Web Sites for Brazilian History has been compiled.  It will be completed in three parts, for the following periods:  Colony (sixteenth to eighteenth centuries), Empire (nineteenth century), and Republic (twentieth century).  Regularly updated editions (revised and enlarged) will be maintained at:  http://library.osu.edu/sites/latinamerica/BrazilStudsLinx.htm.  The inclusion or absence of subjects does not indicate a consideration regarding their importance but rather to the availability of internet resources on them.

 

The author gratefully acknowledges the aid of his research assistants, Luís Eduardo Granja and Alex Medvedeff, in the preparation of this document.
