After undertaking in 1995 an analysis of the academic production about Brazilian history in Germany from 1980 to 1995, I intend in this article to resume work in the subject, with a focus on the period from 1995 to 2014. As before, this is an attempt to assess the interest of German researchers in this theme. The research listed the main university centers undertaking Latin- -American studies and sought to examine what importance they attach to issues of the Brazilian history. As much as possible, comparisons were also made with the level of interest ascribed to the history of other countries of the subcontinent. The data shows that, despite an increase in the interest in at least one university, the situation has not changed much in comparison to the previous period. Still, it was possible to record some relevant academic productions covering a wide range of aspects of Brazilian history.
