Mulheres negras na imprensa em Maceió oitocentista (1850-1888)

Abstract

This monograph focuses on the history of black women in Maceió between the years 1850 to 1888, especially from the perspective of Social History and everyday life and Micro History. Based on the services performed by these black women in the emerging 19th century capital, looking in the documents gathered for the criteria and perception of the daily life under the yoke of slavery in which black women built their lives, their paths and the sociability, in which the study seeks to observe in the advertisements of the newspapers of the Maceioense press what was not sought by traditional epistemology, entering the slave-owning universe of the capital, in which the duality between the presence and invisibility of black women has opened paths not traveled before, but that these stories were being constructed by free and enslaved black women in Maceió.
