Resumo: In this article, we gathered data on 38 traders who worked in Recife between c. 1660 and c. 1760 and who participated in the trade of enslaved Africans. Of this set, we pay special attention to 15 merchants listed in a document made by the governor of the captaincy in 1758. We analysed the activities of the group members and their insertion in local society, to show that participation in the slave trade was one of the main elements of differentiation in the trajectory of a trader who reached the top of the mercantile hierarchy in colonial Recife. We collected the survey data from documents from the Arquivo Histórico Ultramarino, the Arquivo Nacional da Torre do Tombo and various local archives in Recife.

Desse conjunto, damos especial atenção a 15 negociantes identificados em uma lista produzida pelo governador da capitania em 1758. Mediante a análise das atividades desenvolvidas pelos integrantes do grupo e de sua inserção na sociedade local, pretendemos demonstrar que a participação no comércio negreiro era um dos principais dados de diferenciação na trajetória de um homem de negócio que alcançava o topo da hierarquia mercantil no Recife colonial. Os dados da pesquisa foram recolhidos em documentos do Arquivo Histórico Ultramarino, do Arquivo Nacional da Torre do Tombo e em diversos arquivos locais no Recife.Universidade Federal de Pernambuco2020-01-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufpe.br/revistas/index.php/revistaclio/article/view/24203310.22264/clio.issn2525-5649.2019.37.2.17CLIO: Historical Research Journal; Vol. 37 No. 2 (2019): Jul-Dez.
