ABSTRACT
This paper treats four international dimensions of the Revolta da Chibata: 1) the trip of the Dreadnought Sao Paulo to Lisbon (with Presidente Hermes aboard), during which the Portuguese monarchy was overthrown, providing a model for Brazilian sailors; 2) the reception and interpretation of the revolt by the French, British, and American presses, which quickly saw that the central issue was torture; 3) ideological aspects of the revolt, which focus on the rights of citizens under the constitution of 1891; and 4) foreign observers’ favorable impression of the working conditions of Batalhao Naval before the second rebellion in December, and their discovery of a massacre after the second revolt.
