This volume argues that Dutch Brazil (1624-54) is an integral part of Atlantic history and that it made an impact well beyond colonial and national narratives in the Netherlands and in Brazil. By examining its regional, national, and cosmopolitan legacies, thirteen authors trace memories and mythologies of Dutch Brazil from the national period up until the present day.
