An impressive port since the end of the 16th century, the city of Bahia was intensely involved in Atlantic trade and slave trafficking. As both the capital of colonial Brazil and a universal emporium, ecclesiastical metropolis, and, almost by default, cosmopolitan city, it was since then a place of diverse influences and profound reconfigurations. This volume proposes a series of portraits focused on institutions, as well as on the practices and representations of social actors engaged in this Atlantic city between the 17th and 19th centuries.
