Resumo: | The aim of this study is to analyze the participation of black women in social function of wet-milk in breastfeeding of white children of noble families in the city of São Paulo in the nineteenth century, because white mothers had no physical condition to ensure their feeding. The black slaves became known as women who because of their physical size and racial characteristics, could give the breast to the sons of lords. They were obliged to reject the breast milk their own offspring, which increased mortality rates among child slaves. But the performance of the wet-milk was not limited to the house of lords, in São Paulo, in many newspaper ads, they were rented in the cases of women who were unable to breastfeed. The freed black also rented their love-nurse services to get some money. The presence of wet-milk in infant feeding began to be challenged by the public health in the final decades of the nineteenth century; with the development of prophylactic and hygienic childcare. According to the scientific thinking of the late nineteenth century, medical criticism of the wet-milk would be due to poor hygiene in breastfeeding, causing disease and increased infant mortality, so that their services have been targets of political regulation of social control. |

As escravas negras ficaram conhecidas como mulheres que devido ao seu porte físico e características raciais, poderiam dar o peito para os filhos dos senhores. Elas eram obrigadas a rejeitarem do leite materno sua própria prole, o que aumentava os índices de mortalidade entre as crianças escravas. Mas, a atuação das amas-de-leite não ficava limitada à casa dos senhores, na capital paulista, em muitos anúncios jornalísticos, elas eram alugadas nos casos de mulheres que estavam impossibilitadas de amamentarem. As negras libertas também alugavam seus serviços de amas-de-leite para conseguirem algum dinheiro. A presença das amas-de-leite na amamentação infantil começou a ser contestada pela saúde pública nas décadas finais do século XIX; com o desenvolvimento da profilaxia higiênica e da puericultura. Segundo o pensamento cientifico do final do século XIX, as críticas médicas sobre as amas-de-leite seria devido à falta de higiene no aleitamento, ocasionando doenças e aumento da mortalidade infantil, tanto que seus serviços foram alvos de regulamentação política de controle social.Universidade Estadual de Londrina2016-09-06info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionHistorical research on the view of São Paulo society at the end of the 19th century on slave wet nursesPesquisa histórica sobre a visão da sociedade paulista do final do seculo XIX sobre as amas-de-leite escravasapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/article/view/2261810.5433/1984-3356.2016v9n17p297Antíteses; Vol. 9 No. 17 (2016): Dossìe: Imagem na Idade Média; 297-322Antíteses; v. 9 n. 17 (2016): Dossìe: Imagem na Idade Média; 297-3221984-3356reponame:Antítesesinstname:Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)instacron:UELporhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/article/view/22618/19136Copyright (c) 2016 Antítesesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Robson Roberto2021-10-21T17:35:13Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/22618Revistahttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antitesesPUBhttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/oaiantiteses@uel.br||1984-33561984-3356opendoar:2021-10-21T17:35:13Antíteses - Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)false |
