Resumo: This article aims to analyze the role of seafarers in the slave trade between Bahia, Costa da Mina and Angola, in the period between 1750 and 1808. It is subdivided into three distinct axes. First, the paper highlights seamen’s involvement in Catholicism, emphasizing, among other things, material life. Second, the paper examines the way in which some Catholic religious practices, were manifested in maritime culture. Finally, it reflects on chaplains’ roles in the functioning of the slave trade. All these issues show that the workings of the slave trade permeated the mentality, imagination and the essence of the Catholic baroque, so influential in colonial Bahian society.

Ele está subdividido em três eixos distintos. Primeiro, destacamos como os oficiais marítimos cultuavam o catolicismo, salientando, dentre outras características, a vida material. Num segundo momento, estudamos a maneira através da qual algumas práticas religiosas, próprias do catolicismo, manifestam-se na cultura marítima. Por fim, refletimos sobre os capelães no funcionamento do tráfico de escravizados. Todas essas realidades evidenciam que as engrenagens das ações do tráfico negreiro também perpassam pela presença da mentalidade, do imaginário e da essência do barroco católico, influenciador da sociedade baiana colonial.UFBA2023-08-10info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionDouble-blid peer-reviewed articleArtigo avaliado por pares em regime de duplo anonimatoapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/afroasia/article/view/5035610.9771/aa.v0i67.50356Afro-Ásia; No. 67 (2023); 52-96Afro-Ásia; n. 67 (2023); 52-961981-14110002-0591reponame:Afro-Ásia (Online)instname:Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA)instacron:UFBAporhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/afroasia/article/view/50356/29561Copyright (c) 2023 Gabriel Silva de Jesushttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessJesus, Gabriel Silva de2023-08-10T16:19:11Zoai:ojs.periodicos.ufba.br:article/50356Revistahttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/afroasiaPUBhttps://periodicos.ufba.br/index.php/afroasia/oaiafroasia@ufba.br1981-14110002-0591opendoar:2023-08-10T16:19:11Afro-Ásia (Online) - Universidade Federal da Bahia (UFBA)false
