Since 2000, there have been fewer studies released about the ‘formal aspects’ of the operation of colonial powers, such as Portugal, in the East during the Early Modern period. Prior, the fall of Communism, in the last decade of the twentieth century, gave a boost to liberal ideology, while research into topics related to autocracy or state apparatus have become unfashionable. The Portuguese role in the East is usually overlooked, being less high-profile than that of the Dutch or British. Drawing on unpublished materials from the Overseas Historical Archive, and other libraries in Portugal, this book considers Portuguese leadership and organization at home, where it pertained to the governance of the eastern colonies; as well as the formal and ‘soft’ instruments of state applied on the ground in these colonies in first half of the eighteenth century.

This book investigates the intersection of nobility, empire and dynastic change and survival through the history of one of Portugal’s most active and enduring aristocratic lineages, the Mascarenhas. Spanning four centuries of service and war, it traces how the Mascarenhas navigated shifting political contexts across three ruling dynasties, European conflict, revolutionary upheaval and civil war. During this time, in both the metropole and its empire, Portugal emerged from early modernity to the eve of the first industrial revolution. Drawing on prosopographical methodology and archival, printed primary and related secondary sources, this book bridges biographical and structural approaches to the Early Modern nobility. Through its analysis of the evolution of the Mascarenhas lineage over the longue durée and the development of its cadet branches, it provides fresh insights into the role of the aristocracy in Portugal’s imperial world.
