GOA: A SOCIAL HISTORY 1640-1750

950

The Social History of Goa from 1640-1750 shows the consolidation of the conquest of Goa by the Portuguese and an increased social interaction with the people. The period under review ends a few years before the reformation by Marquis de Pombal in 1750.
The Social History of Goa, after a hundred years of the Portuguese rule, reveals the organization of various institutions working towards politics, socio-economic growth and charity.
The current volume exhaustively depicts the various facets of socio-cultural assimilation and focuses on the role of the Church on Goan Society. It also throws light on women in Portuguese Goa and evil customs like slavery and gives a picture  of  Goan hospitals, communidades and municipalities.
The book is written in a lucid style and sustains the interest of scholars and readers throughout.
