From 1795 through 1800, a series of revolts rocked Curaçao, a small but strategically located Dutch colony just off the South American continent. A combination of internal and external factors produced |

these uprisings, in which free and enslaved islanders particiapted with various objectives. A major slave revolt in August 1795 was the opening salvo for these tumultuous five years. While this revolt is a well-known episode in Curaçao an history, its wider Caribbean and Atlantic context is much less known. Also lacking are studies sketching a clear picture of the turbulent five years that followed. It is in these dark corners that this volume aims to shed light. The events discussed in this book fall squarely within the Age of Revolutions, the period that began with the onset of the American Revolution in 1775, was punctuated by the demise of the ancien régime in France, saw the establishment of a black state in Haiti, and witnessed the collapse of Spanish rule in mainland America. All of these revolutions seemed to converge by the late eighteenth century in Curaçao. The seven contributions in this volume provide new insights in the nature of slave resistance in the Age of Revolutions, the remarkable flows of people and ideas in the late eighteenth-century Caribbean, and the unique local history of Curaçao.

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Nul mieux que ce livre n'affirme que l'espace est aussi domaine des historiens, car la vie sociale, la vie administrative des groupements humains, leurs usages culturels aussi, s'inscrivent dans des territoires qui se juxtaposent, s'articulent, se singularisent, se chevauchent parfois. Les notions de frontières et de limites prennent alors tout leur sens. Quinze études et de riches discussions apportent ici des regards croisés et complémentaires sur l'Afrique du Nord antique. C'est également l'occasion de rendre hommage à Pierre Salama, non seulement épigraphiste et numismate, mais aussi spécialiste hors-pair de géographie historique. La Carte du réseau routier, diffusée en 1947, puis intégrée en 1951 au livre sur Les voies romaines de l'Afrique du Nord, a connu une brillante destinée, car elle a constamment servi de point d'appui au travail des historiens des nouvelles générations. Cette carte est une œuvre de synthèse, et d'abord une synthèse de l'espace, exprimée en réduction; mais elle synthétise aussi le temps, car les cités dont le nom apparaît ont duré de longs siècles, structurant fortement la vie politique et sociale des provinces romaines, et reflétant par leur apparition et leur permanence les changements dans les modes de vie. |
