Towards a global and interconnected history: The case of the Fazenda Vitória in Ilhéus
The Cultural Department of Ilhéus presents a lecture by historian Izabel Barros, PhD candidate in History and member of the project “Moral and Economic Entrepreneurship in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe: A Collaborative History of Global Switzerland, c. 1830-1900”, based at the Institute of Political Studies at the University of Lausanne.
Izabel Barros’ research focuses on the transatlantic and trans-imperial history of the Fazenda Vitória, located in the municipality of Ilhéus. Through a meticulous analysis of the period from 1822 to 1888, Barros traces a micro-history of this property, exploring its social, economic and cultural interconnections with both Switzerland and its European neighbours.
