Weaving together thousands of archival fragments, this study explores a shared Black Atlantic world where the meanings of slavery and freedom were fiercely contested and claimed. It recreates the worlds of extraordinary individuals and communities in the long sixteenth century, whilst mapping the development of early modern Black thought about slavery and freedom. From a free Black mother's embarkation license to cross the Atlantic Ocean, to an enslaved Sevillian woman's epistles to her freed husband in New Spain, to an enslaved man's negotiations with prospective buyers on the auction block in Mexico City, to a Black man's petition to reclaim his liberty after his illegitimate enslavement, Chloe L. Ireton explores how Africans and their descendants reckoned with laws and theological discourses that legitimized the enslavement of Black people and the varied meanings of freedom across legal jurisdictions. Their intellectual labor reimagined the epistemic worlds of slavery and freedom in the early modern Atlantic. - Häftad, Engelska, 2024

Revealing an enslaved couple’s intimate correspondence across the Atlantic world, this haunting book traces how they imagined, planned and pursued freedom—for themselves and their children.In the late sixteenth century, well before any whisperings of abolition, husband and wife Antón Segarra and Felipa de la Cruz plotted with each other from opposite shores of the Atlantic Ocean to raise enough funds to purchase their family’s freedom. Their quest for liberty spanned West Africa, Spain and Mexico—from afar, they penned letters to share their news, their hopes and their strategies.Drawing on over a decade of archival research, award-winning historian Chloe L. Ireton pieces together the couple’s world, including the identity of Felipa’s enslavers; the location of the palace where she lived in captivity; and the fate of her beloved husband. Felipa’s surviving letters, which address the conditions of her enslavement and her desire for freedom, are the earliest known epistles by an enslaved Black woman in the Atlantic world.This powerful story explores how a family gathered and exchanged knowledge to fight for their freedom in the first decades of Atlantic slavery. Spanning oceans and mountains, cities and ports, palaces and ships, it paints a deeply moving picture of the human consequences of European imperialism—and of the courage and resilience of two individuals yearning to be free. - E-bokSpanska, 2025

Resistencias letradas reune un conjunto de ensayos que analizan las relaciones entre la escritura concebida como tecnologia del poder, las distintas formas de construccion de la autoridad intelectual y las reapropiaciones estrategicas del saber occidental incorporado en los procesos de letramiento en un grupo de autores y agentes subalternos durante el periodo colonial en la America hispana. Desde el empleo de tacticas juridicas y teologicas en el esfuerzo individual o colectivo de reinstaurar derechos legitimos hasta las reformulaciones criticas sobre la Conquista, las historias indigenas previas a la invasion hispana y las condiciones sociales injustas de la Colonia, este libro examina las distintas formas de apropiacion de la escritura y la produccion de conocimiento de esos sectores subalternos que se enfrentaban a las condiciones de desigualdad provocadas por la dominacion espanola. Asimismo, explora los multiples escenarios textuales en los que se interpelaba a las maximas figuras de la autoridad real o eclesiastica, lo que revela a la escritura como una herramienta clave para negociar con el orden imperial y a su vez registrar otras perspectivas de la colonialidad. A partir del abordaje de casos especificos, este libro tambien ofrece una mirada sobre las contradicciones y las fisuras del poder imperial desde las cuales estas voces de la alteridad americana lograron ingresar al archivo colonial.
