“The battle of Diu (1509) was the culmination of a global trade war.”
A vitória de D. Francisco de Almeida na batalha de Diu, em 1509, mudou o curso da história mundial. A obra "1509", do nosso amigo Jorge Nascimento Rodrigues, é uma das escassas que procura fazer justiça à batalha de Diu e mostrar como o mundo ali mudou, nesse dia 3 de Fevereiro de 1509. A historiografia portuguesa não tem mostrado grande (re)conhecimento da dimensão desta batalha e das suas imensas consequências para Portugal, para a India e para o mundo. Felizmente, na India há quem o saiba fazer.
