Sobre IBD

The Kingdom of Kongo: Nimi Lua Lukeni, Nzinga a Mkuwu, Nzinga a Mvemba, Dona Beatriz-Kimpa a Vita explores the remarkable rise, transformation, and decline of one of Central Africa’s most important historic kingdoms.From the traditional founding of Kongo under Nimi Lua Lukeni to the reigns of Nzinga a Mkuwu and Nzinga a Mvemba (King Afonso I), the book examines royal power, political organisation, Christianity, education, diplomacy, and the kingdom’s changing relationship with Portugal.It also explores the impact of the Atlantic slave trade, European intervention, religious conflict, succession struggles, and political fragmentation. A major focus is Dona Beatriz Kimpa Vita, whose Antonian movement sought to restore the unity of Kongo and develop an African expression of Christianity.Rich in history, culture, faith, conflict, and resistance, this book offers readers an engaging journey through the enduring legacy of the Kingdom of Kongo.
