Summary
Two volumes of the História geral de civilização brasileira (ed. Sérgio Buarque de Holanda) cover the period 1822–48: Tomo 2, O Brasil monárquico: Vol. 1, O processo de emancipação (São Paulo, 1962) and Vol. 2, Dispersão e unidade (São Paulo, 1964). A general history in English, sensible and well organized, but somewhat superficial and now out of date, is C. H. Haring, Empire in Brazil: A New World Experiment with Monarchy (Cambridge, Mass., 1958). For a more recent general survey of the period 1822–52, see Roderick J. Barman, Brazil: The Forging of a Nation, 1798–1852 (Stanford, Calif., 1988), chaps. 4 – 8. Still valuable is Stanley J. Stein, ‘The historiography of Brazil, 1808–1889’, HAHR, 40/2 (1960), 234–78. For the period 1822–31 Tobias do Rego Monteiro, História do império: O primeiro reinado (Rio de Janeiro, 1939), remains the most detailed account of political events. An indispensable contemporary account is John Armitage, History of Brazil from the Arrival of the Braganza Family in 1808 to the Abdication of Dom Pedro the First in 1831, 2 vols. (London, 1836). Other important nineteenth-century accounts include João Manuel Pereira de Silva, História do Brasil de 1831 a 1840 (Rio de Janeiro, 1868), Manuel Duarte Moreira de Azevedo, História Pátria: O Brasil de 1831 a 1840 (Rio de Janeiro, 1884) and Heinrich Handelmann, Geschichte von Brasilien (Berlin, 1860; Portuguese translation, História do Brasil, Rio de Janeiro, 1931).
