"Licentious Liberty" in a Brazilian Gold–Mining Region – Slavery, Gender, and Social Control in Eighteenth–Century Sabará, Minas Gerais
Autor Kathleen J. Higginsen Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 oct 1999
The interactions among masters, slaves, and royal officials were profoundly shaped by the accessibility and widespread dispersal of gold deposits, the emergence of small urban centers in which commercial activities thrived, the sexual division of labor among slaves working in mining and commerce, and the changing sex ratio within the population of free white colonists settling in the region.
Focusing attention on the changing status, autonomy, and influence of non-White women, the author argues, is one of the most effective ways of understanding the economic, demographic, and cultural evolution of the slave society as a whole.
