Por tantos mares: trajetória de pesquisa e reflex es na rota da revolta da chibata

This article focuses on my graduate research on the "Revolt of the Whip", assessing the libraries and archives dedicated to this subject over the last fifteen years. I discuss the initial approach, subsequent difficulties faced and adjustments made in light of these. A defense of the theoretical and methodological reference option is presented, and I show how it helped me to complete my work. I conclude by discussing both the Sailors' Revolt of 1910 and mutineers' movement of 1964.
