CABO VERDE Ilhas Crioulas - Da Cidade-Porto ao Porto-Cidade (Séc. XV-XIX), is a book by Manuel Brito-Semedo, that focuses the reader's attention on the undeniable Creole character of Cape Verdean society, starting right from the title. The author highlights the constitutive role of miscegenation (between Europeans and Africans, and between Africans of different ethnicities) typical of Cape Verdean identity.
The entire book is organized around the backbone of Creoleness. Although not formally separated, two parts can be distinguished in treating this topic, differentiated by the perspectives adopted. The first half of the text offers us a historical and spatial vision of the creolization process, while in the second half, we find a detailed sociocultural analysis of the island imaginary and its most relevant manifestations.
