Abstract The aim of this article is to reveal for the first time a broader participation of craft surgeons from German-speaking Central Europe in the enslavement trade. Using the Dutch and Danish enslavement trades as examples, the patterns and structures behind the recruitment of such ship’s surgeons will be illuminated. That this activity also had repercussions for the German-speaking hinterland will be illustrated using the example of a Prussian surgeon who published a manual for aspiring medical personnel on practicing aboard slaving vessels, based on his own experiences. His case demonstrates that in Germany, too, some medical practices were first tested aboard slaving vessels and subsequently found their way into general medical discourse.

Abstract This article seeks both to model an approach to African and diasporic ethnonyms and to contribute to a long-running debate on the significance of “Mina”/ “Amina,” an ethnonym that was widespread throughout the Americas. In a narrow sense, it argues that the term “Amina,” as used in one key source, C.G.A. Oldendorp’s history of the Moravian missions in the Danish Caribbean, signified the Asante state, specifically, and not the broader pan-Akan identity implied in some sources, nor the narrower “Aquambo” identity that emerges from others. More broadly, it proposes that the proper historical contextualization of ethnonyms is essential to understanding the process of identity formation in the Diaspora.

Abstract As there are hardly any regulations on slavery to be found in early modern German positive law, the impression prevails until today that slave status did not exist in the Old Empire. In such cases, however, Roman law was regularly used as a subsidiary legal source. By studying the plethora of early modern commentaries on the Corpus iuris civilis , which adapted ancient law to contemporary needs, a wholly different picture emerges: Not only did slave status exist as a legal concept and was applied in practice, but by selecting, interpreting, and commenting on it, early modern jurists shaped and reshaped its concrete appearance. Controversies and mainstream positions thus become tangible, as do more profound shifts from religious toward racial alterity as criteria for enslaveability.
由于在早期现代德国实在法中几乎找不到任何关于奴隶制的规定，所以直到今天人们仍然普遍认为，在旧帝国中并不存在奴隶地位。然而，在这种情况下，罗马法通常被用作辅助法律来源。通过研究大量对《民法大全》(Corpus iuris civilis)的早期现代评论，这些评论使古代法律适应了当代的需要，一个完全不同的画面出现了:奴隶地位不仅作为一个法律概念存在并在实践中得到应用，而且通过对它的选择、解释和评论，早期现代法学家塑造和重塑了它的具体外观。因此，争议和主流立场变得切实可见，从宗教到种族多样性的更深刻转变也成为可奴役性的标准。

Abstract From the seventeenth to the twentieth century, Silesian linen production was closely linked to Atlantic slavery. Initially, Silesian linen was a commodity of varying quality, strategically adapted to either satisfy free consumers in Africa or serve as clothing for enslaved Africans or European colonists in the Americas. To keep their selling prices low, Silesian merchants adopted serfdom to exploit spinners and weavers. Later industrialists in the region relied on impoverished factory workers to manufacture competitive products, like tropical clothing for the colonies. This study contributes to a better understanding of the interconnectedness of the Silesian economy with Atlantic slavery by examining the practices through which Silesian actors shaped local conditions that became springboards for business opportunities related to slavery.

Abstract Residing in Brussels from 1755, Friedrich Romberg, a native of Hemer near Iserlohn in Westphalia and a friend of Emperor Joseph II , may be an exceptional figure in the line of German slave traders with his intensive involvement in the French colonial empire of the 1770s/80s. However, he can also be seen as an emblematic exponent of a profitable niche in the overall panorama of the Atlantic slave trade—namely, the connection of the German and even Italian textile industries with the Caribbean plantation economies. By examining the trading circuits within Romberg’s freight forwarding company and his textile trade and production, we can extend and praxeologically nuance the concept of the central European “slavery hinterland.”
