The article discusses the acceptance of Catholicism in the islands of Cape Verde off the coast of West Africa based on the analysis of Portuguese texts of the late 18th and early 19th century. Topics discussed include the historical geography of the Cape Verde islands in the 18th and 19th centuries, the influence of racial mixing and the concept of miscegenation on the spread of Catholicism in the region during this time, and the interaction between the concepts of religion and civilization in these Portuguese texts.
