Resumo:  This article traces the career of Lieutenant-Colonel Francisco Xavier Bigode, the last commander of Salvador’s black militia, the Henrique Dias Regiment (later Battalion), from his enlistment in 1797 to his murder after the 1838 Sabinada Rebellion. It examines how he adapted his Old-Regime baroque ideology and his understandings of the segregated militia’s place in the colonial order to the liberal principles of the newly independent Brazilian empire that continued to pay salaried black militia officers less than their white counterparts and, in 1831, abolished the black militia. Although he was not a leader in the movement for independence, his four-decade military career spanned the entire independence process in Bahia and his choices reveal some of the options available to Brazilians at this time.

Analisa como ele adaptou sua ideologia barroca do Antigo Regime e sua compreensão do lugar da milícia segregada na ordem colonial aos princípios liberais do novo império brasileiro independente que continuava a pagar aos oficiais negros milicianos assalariados menos que às suas contrapartes brancas e, em 1831, aboliu a milícia negra. Embora não fosse líder no movimento pela Independência, suas quatro décadas de carreira militar abarcaram todo o processo da Independência na Bahia e suas escolhas revelam algumas das opções disponíveis aos brasileiros nessa época.Universidade Estadual de Londrina2022-12-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/antiteses/article/view/4445010.5433/1984-3356.2022v15nEspecialp52-80Antíteses; Vol. 15 No. Especial (2022): A independência do Brasil - 200 anos; 52-80Antíteses; v. 15 n.
