Book excerpt: THE RISE OF PORTUGUESE POWER IN INDIA A.D.1497 - A.D.1550 Richard Stephen Whiteway PREFACE I KNOW of no English book which quite covers the ground that I have attempted to explore. The nearest approach to the subject was made in The History of the Portuguese in India, published a few years since, but I have been unable to avail myself of the undoubted erudition of the author as he has not connected his narrative in any way with the general history of India. In the study of Oriental history the absence of surnames is a great drawback, each individual stands alone, and his name awakens no chord of sympathy as when we read of the Cecil under Elizabeth and of the Cecil under Victoria. The Portuguese occupy an intermediate position between the East and West; the son, as a rule, takes his father's name, but not always : it requires some research to discover that Pero da Silva, Alvaro d'Ataide and Estavao da Gama were all three sons of Vasco da Gama, and meanwhile our interest is dulled. In the matter of Oriental names the Portuguese transliteration presents some difficulties: Çarcamdacao for Sikandar Khan, Codavascao for Khuda Bakhsh Khan, and Xacoez for Shaikh Iwaz are soluble, but some have defied indentification. Where possible the name has been taken from the Taháfatu-l-Mujáhidín, from Elliot's History of India or from Bayley's Gujarat. Before leaving the subject of names it may be noted that the different systems of cataloguing the Portuguese writers throws some difficulty in the way of enquirers. One of the early historians is Fernao Lopez de Castanheda; he is usually quoted as Castanheda and the custom has been followed here, but in the British Museum catalogue he will be found under Lopez, and, worse than all, under Fernao in that monumental work, the Bibliotheca Lusitana of Diogo Barbosa Machado. I have endeavoured to give a history of the rise of the Portuguese power in India derived from the best available sources, and to give, not merely a record of military expeditions and of the change of governors, but also the details which throw light on the social life and on the idiosyncrasies of the chief men of the time. I hope I may have succeeded. The Portuguese connection with Ceylon has been so fully dealt with by Sir Emerson Tennant, and its connection with the Malay States by Crawfurd, that only a summary has been added to give completeness to this book. If the subject prove of sufficient interest the work will be concluded with a volume on the decline of the Portuguese power in India. In the first four chapters authorities have been freely quoted; in the remaining ones they are only given where the narrative is not based on the following historians: Castanheda to 1538 Correa to 1550 Barros to 1526 Couto from 1526 to 1550 I have to thank Sir Alfred Lyall and Mr. E.

Excerpt: ...the obdurate city with dire punishment, that the body could be removed. It reached Lisbon on April 6th, 1566. 1 Lopo Scares did put up his goods to auction, but they were so poor that they redounded to the credit of the great Governor. 2 Cartas, page 380, December 6th, 1515. Albuquerque was 62 years of age at his death. He was the second son of Gongalo de Albuquerque and Donna Lianor de Menezes his wife. The bar sinister came in his pedigree several times, and he could claim descent from the Royal Houses of both Portugal and France. He is described as being of medium height, well made, spare of flesh, with a long face, high colour, and a beard reaching to his waist, that in his later years was white. He was never married, and left an illegitimate son by a negress. He was like most men of his age, pitiless and cruel, but he had a keen love of justice. He kept no doorkeeper, and his door was never closed save for a short time while he slept after dinner. It was his maxim that, though the Muhamedans had been conquered, having once submitted, they should be treated with more than even justice to attach them by love. l Just before he started for Ormuz in 1515, two Portuguese galley captains committed a petty theft from a Muhamedan boat, the captain of Goa, however, pooh-poohed the matter, for the accused were Portuguese and captains of galleys, the complainant a mere Muhamedan. The persistent Muhamedan went straight to Albuquerque and found him just getting off his horse after his morning's ride, but on hearing the story the Governor returned directly to the shore and investigated the case. Not only the two thieves, but also the masters of their galleys who had held their tongues over their captains' thefts, and the Captain of Goa himself were...
