摘要
作为对加勒比海西班牙宗教“庇护”政策和海上婚姻的文献的补充,本文阐明了早在“革命时代”之前,被奴役的人们是如何跨越海洋和帝国边界分享和行动宗教知识的。出生于库拉帕拉索的尼古拉斯·巴普蒂斯塔(Nicholas Baptista)和胡安·德·拉达(Juan de Rada)出生在葡属东印度群岛,后来被一名英国人抓获。18世纪10年代末,他们来到了印度卡塔赫纳宗教裁判所的神圣法庭。两人都采取了截然不同的策略来成为天主教徒,并在此过程中从物质上改变了他们的生活。跨帝国的流动,通过奴隶贸易的劳动,是早期现代世界中被奴役的人们传播和生产宗教知识的核心。对由地理、流动性和劳动力构成的被奴役者的证词的分析,加深了我们对黑人知识生产及其在早期现代世界中的日常流动性的理解。
Transimperial mobilities, slavery, and becoming Catholic in eighteenth-century Cartagena de Indias
ABSTRACT Complementing the literature on inter-Caribbean Spanish religious “sanctuary” policy and maritime marronage, this article illuminates how enslaved people shared and acted on religious knowledge across oceans and imperial boundaries, long before the “Age of Revolutions.” Curaçao-born Nicholas Baptista, initially with a Dutch enslaver, and Juan de Rada, born in the Portuguese East Indies and captured by an Englishman, found themselves before the tribunal of the Holy Office of the Inquisition of Cartagena de Indias in the late 1710s. Both men took radically different strategies to becoming Catholic and, in doing so, to materially transform their lives. Transimperial mobilities, through labour in the slave trade, were central to enslaved people’s circulation and production of religious knowledge in the early modern world. Analysis of enslaved people’s testimonies in place, formed by geography, mobility, and labour, deepens our understanding of black knowledge production and its quotidian mobilities across the Early-Modern world.
