EXPERIÊNCIAS DE ESCRAVIZADOS, DE UM MENINO POBRE E DE UMA PARENTA PRETA DOS SEUS BRANCOS BEM-NASCIDOS NO INTERIOR DE CASAS-GRANDES E NEM TÃO GRANDES: A ESCRAVIDÃO DOMÉSTICA E A PÓS-EMANCIPAÇÃO NO RECIFE (1870-1910)

Abstract

Abstract: This paper makes an inventory and examines some experiences of black women and men domestic servants in the last years of slavery and in the first decades of post-emancipation, in the city of Recife. It examines and problematizes the strength of structural permanences of racism, slavery, the bonds of social and racial dependence that made black children, liberated and free subordinate workers in family homes. The set of experiences purposefully recounted suggests a more static picture of a Recife that goes beyond the year 1900 and the official dates of the end of legal slavery in the country without radically altering domination practices and customs, updating forms of subjection inscribed in the domestic sphere. This paper interprets literary texts, memoirs and other documents, most of which were constructed from the perspective of masters /patrons. Keywords: Domestic slavery; Post-abolition; Memories.

EXPERIENCIAS DE ESCLAVIZADOS, DE UM NIÑO POBRE Y DE UNA “PARIENTE PRETA DE SUS BLANCOS BIEN-NACIDOS” AL INTERIOR DE CASAS-GRANDES Y NI TAN GRANDES: LA ESCLAVITUD DOMÉSTICA Y. Sobrados habitados por portugueses instalados no Recife, sobrados habitados por brasileiros mais abonados, na segunda metade do século XIX, não eram mais as antigas casas-grandes dos engenhos, mas ainda mantinham, sempre que possível, as violências raciais contra seu pequeno número de criadas e criados negros, bem como rituais de subordinação.
