Amsterdam's Sephardic Merchants and the Atlantic Sugar Trade in the Seventeenth Century - Yda Schreuder - Bog - Springer International Publishing AG -

Amsterdam's Sephardic Merchants and the Atlantic Sugar Trade in the Seventeenth Century - Yda Schreuder - Bog - Springer International Publishing AG -

This book surveys the role of Amsterdam''s Sephardic merchants in the westward expansion of sugar production and trade in the seventeenth-century Atlantic. It offers an historical-geographic perspective, linking Amsterdam as an emerging staple market to a network of merchants of the "Portuguese Nation," conducting trade from the Iberian Peninsula and Brazil. Examining the "Myth of the Dutch," the "Sephardic Moment," and the impact of the British Navigation Acts, Yda Schreuder focuses attention on Barbados and Jamaica and demonstrates how Amsterdam remained Europe''s primary sugar refining center through most of the seventeenth century and how Sephardic merchants played a significant role in sustaining the sugar trade.

Rome and Irish Catholicism in the Atlantic World, 1622–1908 - - Bog - Springer International Publishing AG - Plusbog.dk

Rome and Irish Catholicism in the Atlantic World, 1622–1908 - - Bog - Springer International Publishing AG - Plusbog.dk

This book builds upon research on the role of Catholicism in creating and strengthening a global Irish identity, complementing existing scholarship by adding a ''Roman perspective''. It assesses the direct agency of the Holy See, its role in the Irish collective imagination, and the extent and limitations of Irish influence over the Holy See''s policies and decisions. Revealing the centrality of the Holy See in the development of a series of missionary connections across the Atlantic world and Rome, the chapters in this collection consider the formation, causes and consequences of these networks both in Ireland and abroad. The book offers a long durée perspective, covering both the early modern and modern periods, to show how Irish Catholicism expanded across continental Europe and over the Atlantic across three centuries. It also offers new insights into the history of Irish migration, exploring the position of the Irish Catholic clergy in Atlantic communities of Irish migrants.
