African and Creole Slaves: From the Diversified Agriculture of Southern Rio de Janeiro to the Coffee Cultivation of Minas Gerais, 1802—1885
2011
Overview
This article contributes to the debate over slavery in southeastern Brazil. It seeks to go beyond statistics, in order to analyze the social history of the slave universe in coffee counties of Zona da Mata of Minas Gerais and in diversified agricultural regions in Southern Rio de Janeiro. Comparing sources, exploiting geographic and temporal spatialities, investigating oscillatory movements in prices and demography, tracking baptisms, marriages, and deaths, the author traces and compares these two regions, noting their similarities and differences through analysis of historical series that have been identified, while examining how improvements in the transport system and epidemic outbreaks, among other factors, affected differentiated agrarian systems and caused irregular movements in the population.
