Abstract
Standing at the cliffs of Cape Vincent near Sagres, Portugal, the center of navigation studies during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, it is easy to imagine that one is at the end of the world. The constant gale above the seas acts as a repository of history recording and archiving the journeys of Iberians, Europeans, and Africans at this westernmost point of Europe: a beacon of modernity on the threshold of discovery. Portuguese history is in great part a narrative about “civilizing” encounters abroad and the cultivation of national character through such meetings in far-flung locales.
