Abstract:
The article is devoted to an unknown episode in the biography of the eminent Soviet historian B. F. Porshnev (1905–1972), who worked in the higher educational and scientific institutions of Rostov-on-Don in 1930–32, and among others, in the North Caucasus Regional Highlander Research Institute of Local History, where he primarily lectured and taught history of socio-economic formations to post-graduate students. In Rostov, B. F. Porshnev, who later declared himself a scholar in the French history, showed himself as a Marxist social scientist. 1930–32 saw a discussion on socio-economic formations in the Soviet historical science, during which the antiquity was legitimized and received the name of “slave formation.” The literature follows the content of this discussion in the regions not quite as well as in the center. The State Archive of the Stavropol Krai stores B. F. Porshnev’s documents and his report on the slave formation, which he gave in a dispute in the North Caucasus Regional Highlander Research Institute of Local History; this indicates that the discussion of socio-economic formations took place in Rostov as well. The report of B. F. Porshnev was typical Marxist work, in which sketchiness, social science, and abstractness dominated, while real historical material was absent. In B. F. Porshnev’s mind the slave formation was a logical stage in the development of mankind, however, not all peoples underwent it. Only sedentary peoples could expand slave system. They constantly pushed their borders and conquered first nearby, then distant peoples, turning them into slaves. Thus the empires of antiquity arose: Ancient Rome, other states of antiquity, Han China. Slaves were the main productive force within the slave formation, and violence, war, and capture were the main source of its replenishment. The slave formation collapsed as a result of class struggle between the exploiters (slave owners) and the exploited (slaves); however, this happened under objective external conditions, i.e., during barbarian invasions.

[First paragraph]"Aunque por supuesto nuestro trabajo no es historico (Miguel Barnet)" Apart from Manuel Moreno Fraginals's El ingenio, there is hardly any other book in Cuban historiography that has met with such wide circulation as Biografia de un cimarron by Miguel Barnet.1 It is, in spite of a series of contradictions, the classic in testimonio literature for contemporary studies on slavery as well as for the genre of historical slave narratives extending far beyond Cuba. In particular the various new editions and translations, such as the English versions that have been published under the titles Autobiography of a Runaway Slave (Barnet 1968), Autobiography of a Runaway Slave (Esteban Montejo & Miguel Barnet 1993) or Biography of a Runaway Slave (Barnet 1994) and the discussion that Barnet's book stimulated bear witness to this position.2

Abstract:
In his biography of Jean Genet, Sartre says his aim is ‘to demonstrate that freedom alone can account for a person in his totality’. Building on my reading of Being and Nothingness in Sartre on Sin, I examine the compatibility of Sartrean freedom and love in Saint Genet. Sartre’s account of Genet’s person is largely a loveless one in which there is no reciprocity, others are ‘empty shells’ and love is ‘only the lofty name which [Genet] gives to onanism’. I use Saint Genet to suggest Genet’s lovelessness is the direct result of locating the totality of personhood in freedom. This location results in a lonely experience of subjectivity as ‘master, slave and merciless struggle’ – never lover or beloved, whether on the divine plane or the human.

The now little-known early Abbasid poet Yaʿqūb b. al-Rabīʿwas famous for his elegies on his slave woman, Mulk. While scholars such as al-Mubarrad transmitted them, along with a biography patterned on the “sold slave-girl” tale-type, al-Mutanabbī plagiarised them and reversed their message. This yields a corpus which can contribute to an Abbasid history of emotions. Approaches to the history of emotions are discussed in an introduction, and key elements of the corpus are translated in Appendices i to iii.

Abstract:
The subject of Mojisola Adebayo’s one-woman performance, Moj of the Antarctic: An African Odyssey, is Ellen Craft, an ex-slave whose escape from the slave-owning state of Georgia to England in the late 1840s is recounted in the escape narrative Running a Thousand Miles for Freedom; Or, the Escape of William and Ellen Craft from Slavery. Rather than using her performance to present her biographical subject with an interiority the original slave narrative scarcely offers her, Adebayo reconstitutes Ellen and relocates her in an auto/biographical work that self-consciously blurs the boundaries between autobiography, biography, and biofiction, thus exposing the overlap and interdependency of these textual forms. Through a detailed analysis of both texts and their contexts, this essay argues that Adebayo constructs a figurative, first person auto/biography of Ellen Craft, a “call and response” production, originating in an “intimate, somatic engagement with the body of another”, whose “touch” sets up a fluid process of identification. Her work performs a textual revision of the slave narrative genre and its rich, socio-cultural contexts. As a performed, auto/biographical reimagining of Ellen Craft’s flight from slavery Moj of the Antarctic, like Running a Thousand Miles for Freedom, transgresses multiple borders and, in the process, subverts expectations of what constitutes an authentic self. It deconstructs conventionally defined categories of race, gender, and sexuality and radically extends the Crafts’ own examination of the meaning of freedom.

Abstract:
This article analyzes one of the most significant, yet understudied events in African-American history. The Virginia Conspiracy or the Gabriel Conspiracy of 1800 is considered the most famous case of organizing a mass armed uprising of slaves in the United States. Inspired by the ideas and examples of the American, Great French and Haitian revolutions, black slaves tried not just to raise an uprising and achieve liberation, but actually challenged the slave-owning orders of the entire white South. The scale and geography of the conspiracy leave no doubt that it originally implied a mass armed demonstration, which was to begin simultaneously in several cities of Virginia and spread to neighboring states. The purpose of this study is to analyze and restore the chronicle of the main events related to the Virginia Conspiracy of 1800. The materials of the trial and some periodicals act as a source base, while the author also relies on the research of leading American experts on this topic. The main objectives of the study include: to consider the background of the conspiracy and some issues of Gabriel’s early biography and to study the process of preparing a speech and the immediate implementation of the plan. The article also analyzes the consequences of the events of 1800 for the legislation of Virginia and the entire white South. The main methods are historical-descriptive and comparative-historical, allowing to draw the necessary parallels with similar historical phenomena, such as the Virginia Uprising led by Nat Turner in 1831. The conclusion shows that the slave conspiracy of 1800 was planned in the most careful way, while the reason for its failure was a combination of purely subjective factors. Simultaneously, Gabriel’s failed rebellion demonstrated the vulnerability of the White South in the face of slave uprisings, as well as the high degree of self-organization of the Black community and the beginning of the formation of an African-American identity.

Full text
Abstract:
Byron makes frequent references to slavery in his work. The word ‘slave’ occurs some 160 times in his verse and peppers his letters and journals. The aspect of slavery that most concerns twenty-first-century readers in Western democracies (the fifteenth- to nineteenth-century transatlantic trade in enslaved people between the west coast of Africa and the east coast of the Americas) accounts, however, for only a fraction of Byron’s subject-matter concerning this topic. In his hands this is a wide-ranging and complex subject, relating not only to historical and political matters in different geographical locations, but also to metaphorical, personal and emotional themes. This essay therefore begins by looking at Byron’s biography and writing to outline his own connections with transatlantic slavery and with people impacted by enslavement, and then moves on to make what can only be a very modest attempt to consider his writing about slaves and slavery more generally.

Abstract:
In her bibliography, Incidents in the life of a Salve Girl, Harriet Ann Jacobs appropriates the autobiographical "I" in order to tell her own story of slavery and talk back to the dominant culture that enslaves her. Through analysis and explication of the text, this thesis examines Jacobs' rhetorical and psyshological evolution from slave to self as she struggles against patriarchal power that would rob her of her identity as well as her freedom. Included in the discussion is an analysis of the concept of self in western plilosophy, an overview of american autobiography prior to the publication of Jacobs' narrative, a discussion of the history of the slave narrative as a genre, and a discussion of the history of Jacobs' narrative.

Esta dissertação discute a trajetória de vida do africano escravizado e liberto na Bahia, Luís Xavier de Jesus, que apesar de não ter comprovada a sua participação no levante dos malês, em 1835,foi expulso do Brasil em novembro daquele ano. Após sua partida para a África, Luís Xavier solicitou, insistentemente, o seu retorno à Bahia, a fim de liquidar seus negócios deixados aos cuidados de seu ex-escravo, o também africano, Antônio Xavier de Jesus. Este, além de ser receptador de cativos enviados ilegalmente por Luís Xavier da costa africana, foi nomeado seu herdeiro universal naquele mesmo ano de 1835, e, com a morte de seu exsenhor, após anos de conflitos e demandas judiciais, Antônio Xavier conseguiu herdar os bens a ele deixados. Também, será discutida a relação de Antônio com Felicidade Francisca Friandes, africana, sua companheira por pelo menos, vinte e seis anos, com quem teve mais de dez filhos. This thesis discusses the life trajectory of Luís Xavier de Jesus, an African enslaved and later freed in Bahia who was accused of participation in the 1835 Malê uprising and, despite his innocence, was expelled from Brazil in November of that year. After leaving, Luís Xavier petitioned several times for his return to the country, aiming at selling off his property, which he had left in under supervision by his African ex-slave by the name of Antônio Xavier de Jesus. Besides receiving captives illegally sent from Africa by Luís Xavier, Antônio was made his universal heir in that same year of 1835, and after Luis‟ death, he spent several years struggling in the courts to obtain control over his ex-master‟s legacy. Furthermore, I will also discuss the relationship between Antônio and Felicidade, his African companion for at least, twenty-six years, with whom he had more than ten Brazilian.

Abstract:
Pendant les plus de trois cents ans que dura la traite négrière transatlantique, du XVIe au XIXe siècle, plus de douze millions de personnes furent déportées du continent Africain pour servir de main-d'œuvre dans les plantations de canne à sucre, de coton, ainsi que dans les mines "du Nouveau Monde." On considère que 4.800.000 Africains ont débarqué au Brésil, soit 43 % du total des déportés. Des études plus récentes sur les biographies d’esclaves, retracent les itinéraires individuels des captifs ainsi que leurs démarches pour regagner la liberté. La reconstitution du parcours de ces derniers leur donne de l’humanité, tout en leur restituant leur dignité. Nous nous inspirons de cette méthodologie pour accomplir notre étude doctorale sur la biographie d’Osifekunde, un commerçant issu de l’ethnie Ijebu (du sud-ouest de l’actuel Nigeria), réduit en esclavage au Brésil en 1820 et devenu homme libre en France en 1837. Pour ce faire, nous avons divisé notre étude en six parties et chaque partie est subdivisées en trois chapitres: Dans la première partie nous avons présenté des observations sur les études biographiques en France après les années 1970, notamment sur les biographies d’esclaves, sur l’utilisation de la méthode microhistorique dans ces dernières recherches et les champs de recherche sur les biographies d’esclaves aux États-Unis, au Brésil et en France. Dans une deuxième partie, nous avons essayé de comprendre comment l’intérieur de l’Afrique est devenu le centre d’intérêt des Sociétés Savantes et par conséquent, comment les membres de ces sociétés ont utilisé les témoignages d’esclaves dans leurs études, afin de trouver des endroits très reculés comme la ville de Tombouctou ou la source du fleuve Niger, pour propager l’idée de l’Africain comme « sauvage, antropophage, » ce qui pourrait justifier l’argument civilisateur, utilisé par les européens pour coloniser l’Afrique
During the more than three hundred years that the transatlantic slave trade lasted, from the XVIth to the XIXth century, more than twelve million people were deported from the African continent to serve as labor in the plantations of sugar cane, cotton, as well as in “New World” mines. It is considered that 4.800,000 Africans have landed in Brazil, or 43% of the total deportees. More recent studies on the biographies of slaves, retrace the individual itineraries of the captives as well as their steps to regain freedom. The reconstruction of their journey gives them humanity, while restoring their dignity. We are inspired by this methodology to complete our doctoral researcher on the biography of Osifekunde, a trader from the Ijebu ethnic groupe (from southwestern present-day Nigeria), enslaved in Brazil in 1820 and become a free man in France in 1837. To do this, we divided our researcher into six parts and each part is subdivided intro three chapters: In the first part we presented observations on biographical studies in France after the 1970s, in particular on the biographies of slaves, on the use of the microhistorical method in this latest research and the fields of research on the biographies of slaves in the United States, Brazil and France. In a second part, we tried to understand how the interior of Africa became the center of interest of the “Scientifical Societies” and consequently, how the members of these societies used the testimonies of slaves in their studies, in order to find very remote places like the city of Timbuktu or the source of the Niger river, to propagate the idea of the African as “wild, anthropophagous,” which could justify the civilizing argument, used by Europeans to colonize the Africa

Abstract:
In the last twenty years, studies in Afro-American slavery have given special attention to the slave community and culture. They have emphasized the slaves' control over their lives, while glossing over the brutality of the institution of slavery. Slave women have been ignored until very recently, and those few historians who studied their lives have applied the same categories of inquiry used by traditional historians with a male perspective. The topic of interracial sexual relations crystallizes this problem. This issue has been left aside in most scholarly studies and, when mentioned, addressed more often than not from a male perspective. As sexual abuse, it exemplifies the harshness of slavery. The oral slave narratives, often referred to by the same historians, are one of the few primary sources by and on slave women. Yet, historians have not used them adequately in research on slave women, primarily because of inadequate conceptual frameworks.

Resumo: No ano de 1832 foi descoberto um plano de revolta escrava em Campinas, envolvendo quinze fazendas. O objetivo deste trabalho é construir uma biografia coletiva dos escravos e do liberto envolvidos nesse plano de rebelião. Buscaremos acompanhar a trajetória desses revoltosos desde o momento em que chegaram na vila de Campinas até o ano de 1832. Levantaremos vários aspectos de suas vidas, como, por exemplo, a época em que chegaram na região, as procedências, os tipos de tarefas desempenhadas nas fazendas, as relações de parentesco e outros. Esperamos com isso tirar algumas conclusões para discutir a temática da comunidade escrava. Existiria uma comunidade escrava homogênea pelo simples fato de todos terem a mesma condição cativa? Ou os escravos eram bastante divididos entre si pelas diferenças de origem, sendo os crioulos (cativos nascidos no Brasil) menos propensos a se rebelarem contra os senhores que os africanos? Ou, ainda, seriam aqueles escravos casados e com profissões especializadas completamente estranhos à maioria dos cativos que não experimentavam essas vivências e totalmente avessos a rebeliões coletivas? O trabalho utiliza o método de ligação nominativa das fontes, baseado em cinco séries documentais: processo-crime de 1832, inventários, censos populacionais, registros de batismo e casamento escravo
Abstract: In the year of 1832 a plan of enslaved revolt in Campinas was discovered, involving fifteen farms. The objective of this work is to construct a collective biography of the slaves and of free people involved in this plan of rebellion. We will search to follow the trajectory of these rebels since the moment where they had arrived in the village of Campinas until the year of 1832. We will raise some aspects of its lives, as, for example, the time where they had arrived in the region, the origins, the types of tasks played in the farms, the relationships and others. We wait with this to obtain some conclusions to argue the thematic of the enslaved community. Would exist a homogeneous enslaved community for the simple fact of all to have the same captive condition? Or the slaves sufficiently were divided between itself for the origin differences, having been the crioulos (captive been born in Brazil) less inclined to rebel against the masters who the Africans? Or, still, they would be those slaves married and professions specialized completely strange to the majority of the captives who did not try these experiences and total opposite the collective rebellions? I will use five documents: the evidence produced during the repression, inventories, censuses, registers of baptism and enslaved marriage

Abstract:
The motivational value of food is lower during satiety compared to fasting. Dynamic changes in motivational value promote food seeking or meal cessation. In obesity this mechanism might be compromised since obese subjects ingest energy beyond homeostatic needs. Thus, lower adaptation of eating behaviour with respect to changes in motivational value might cause food overconsumption in obesity. To test this hypothesis, we implemented a selective satiation procedure to investigate the relationship between obesity and the size of the behavioural devaluation effect in humans. Lean to obese men (mean age 25.9, range 19–30 years; mean BMI 29.1, range 19.2–45.1 kg/m2) were trained on a free operant paradigm and learned to associate cues with the possibility to win different food rewards by pressing a button. After the initial training phase, one of the rewards was devalued by consumption. Response rates for and wanting of the different rewards were measured pre and post devaluation. Behavioural sensitivity to reward devaluation, measured as the magnitude of difference between pre and post responses, was regressed against BMI. Results indicate that (1) higher BMI compared to lower BMI in men led to an attenuated behavioural adjustment to reward devaluation, and (2) the decrease in motivational value was associated with the decrease in response rate between pre and post. Change in explicitly reported motivational value, however, was not affected by BMI. Thus, we conclude that high BMI in men is associated with lower behavioural adaptation with respect to changes in motivational value of food, possibly resulting in automatic overeating patterns that are hard to control in daily life.

Abstract:

This dissertation explores the unhomely nature of the slave system as experienced by fugitive and captive slaves within slave and neo-slave narratives. The purpose of this project is to broaden the discourse of migration narratives set during the antebellum period. I argue that the unhomely manifests through corporeal, psychological, historical, and geographical descriptions found within each narrative and it is through these manifestations that a broader discourse of identity can be generated. I turn to four slave and neo-slave narratives for this dissertation: Solomon Northup’s Twelve Years a Slave (1853), Frederick Douglass’s My Bondage and My Freedom (1855), Octavia Butler’s Kindred (1979), and Toni Morrison’s Beloved (1987).

Les problemes concernant l'evolution des faits suprasegmentaux slaves ont donne lieu a trois grandes hypotheses qui sont refutees dans la premiere partie: celle de a. Vaillant, qui, par la methode comparative. Reconstitue six tons slaves communs, dont trois secondaires, de recul sur intonations dissociees de l'intensite, celle de j. Kurylowicz, qui fonde la plupart des metatonies et deplacements d'accents sur des interferences entre paradigmes, celle de p. Garde, qui, etendant les proprietes accentuelles des morphemes aux formes flexionnelles toute entieres, suppose l'existence de mots pleins accentogenes inaccentuables recevant tardivement un circonflexe dont la place varie selon les langues. Il convient d'opposer a ces theories inconciliables, l'hypothese realiste de deux lois fondamentales: loi de coalescence de l'intensite et de l'acuite, regroupant les lois de hirt et de meillet-fortunatov, et cas particulier d'une loi cenematique fondee sur les proprietes de l'opposition binaire sequence cooccurrence; loi de stabilite relative, etablie par l'analyse interne et comparative, et fondee sur trois isomorphismes: 1) isomorphisme des tons longs et des tons brefs du serbo-croate, qui explique les metatonies par des deplacements d'accent intrasyllabiques repondant a des reculs ou avancees phonetiques ou morphologiques des frontieres du mot; 2) isomorphisme des plans du contenu et de l'expression, qui confirme les mecanismes analogiques de l'extention de cette loi par remanence, phenomene de fixation in absentia d'un changement in praesentia; 3) isomorphisme des axes syntagmatiques et paradigmatiques, qui explique le ton circonflexe par une loi d'opposition maximale analogue aux lois de dissimilation visant a assurer des contrastes maximums
The problems concerning the evolution of suprasegmental phenomens in slavonic languages have given rise to three major hypotheses which are refuted in the first part: that of a. Vaillant, who, using a comparative method, reconstitutes six common slavonic tones, of which three are secondary, of backward displacement on intonations dissociated from intensity, that of j. Kurylowicz, who bases most metatonies and accent movements on interferences between paradigms, that of p. Garde, who, extending the accentual properties of morphemes to whole flexional forms, presumes the existence of inaccentuable full words which take a circonflex accent later, the place depending ont he language. It is opportune to confront these incompatible theories with a realistic hypothesis of two fundamental laws: 1) the law of coalescence between intensity and tonality - regrouping the laws of hirt, and meillet - fortunatov, which is in itself a special case of a general law based on the properties of binary opposition succesivity simultaneity, and 2) a law of relative stability, discovered by internal and comparative analysis, and founded on three isomorphism: 1) isomorphism of long and short tones in serbo-croatian, which explains the metatonies by the intra-syllabic movements of the accent consecutive to the phonetical or morphological displacements of the word's limits; 2) isomorphism of the plans of content and expression, which confirms the analogical mechanisms of the extension of this law by remanence, a phenomenen of stabilisation in absentia of a change in praesentia; 3) isomorphism of syntagmatic and paradigmatic axes, which explains the circonflex tone by a law of maximum opposition analogue to the laws of dissimilation which ensure maximum contrasts

Abstract:
The point of departure of this paper is the most comprehensive introduction to Roman farming of the four preserved Latin agricultural writers from antiquity. It is written by Columella, and the article presents a short biography of him before an analysis of his manual. Columella emphasizes the importance of the owner’s personal participation in the running of the estate, but it is also implied that the owner normally did not live permanently on the estates described by in the agricultural handbook. The labour force was slave under supervision of a bailiff, who him self was a slave. The handbook contain instructions for almost all tasks on a farm, including management and receipts. The most interesting part is in many respects the advices concerning the exploitation and intensification of the slaves and their work.

Abstract:
This article examines travel letters that Ljubomir Nenadović (1826-1895) wrote from Switzerland (1847), Italy (1850-1851) and Germany (1870). Marking three different phases in the literary biography of their author, these texts provide evidence of the travel letter’s polyphonic nature. We argue that the dynamic shape and narrative texture of Nenadović’s letters find their source in the nature of the differences that he observes and identifies, differences that distinguish these countries from his Serbian homeland and, more generally, from the cultural and geographic space of the Slavs.
