The broader historical situation in Africa at the time that Jean Barbot wrote his book was that it showed the colonization of Africa by European countries.
It should be noted that a way that the passage illustrated the continuing development of the Atlantic in the seventeenth century is that it showed that the development was continuous.
Lastly, the way in which Barbot’s background might have influenced his comments about the Dutch and the Portuguese was due to the Protestant link he shared with the Dutch. Therefore, he speaks well of the Dutch and speaks ill of the Portuguese.
