The Iberian world played a key role in the global trade of enslaved people from the 15th century onwards. Scholars of Iberian forms of slavery face challenges accessing the subjectivity of the enslaved, given the scarcity of autobiographical sources. This book offers a compelling example of innovative methodologies that draw on alternative archives and documents, such as inquisitorial and trial records, to examine enslaved individuals' and collective subjectivities under Iberian political dominion. It explores themes such as race, gender, labour, social mobility and emancipation, religion, and politics, shedding light on the lived experiences of those enslaved in the Iberian world from the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic. Contributors are: Magdalena Candioti, Robson Pedroso Costa, Rômulo da Silva Ehalt, James Fujitani, Michel Kabalan, Silvia Lara, Marta Macedo, Hebe Mattos, Michelle McKinley, Sophia Blea Nuñez, Fernanda Pinheiro, João José Reis, Patricia Faria de Souza, Lisa Surwillo, Miguel Valerio and Lisa Voigt.

La colonialité fut et est un phénomène mondial, lié à l’expansion du système-monde capitaliste moderne depuis le xve siècle. Elle n’est pas uniforme puisque liée aux historicités de chaque territoire, imposant néanmoins des rapports sociaux de type colonial indépendamment du statut du territoire concerné. La colonialité est un concept fondamental dans les approches postcoloniales et décoloniales et de sa définition découlent celles d’autres concepts liés : post-colonial et postcolonial, décolonial, décolonialité, subalternité, universalisme, pluriversalisme, « sud global »... Les colonialités du savoir, de la nature, de l’être, sont désormais plus étudiées et dénoncées que la colonialité du pouvoir dont découle pourtant tous les autres aspects de la colonialité. Ce tournant épistémique donne au décolonial une forte orientation idéaliste : c’est de la « déprise » mentale avec l’« Occident » et la « Modernité » que viendrait l’émancipation des subalternes. Or, jamais les mouvements sociaux réels ne séparent ainsi l’ontologie de la vie socio-économique. Ce décolonial, de fait idéaliste, réifie l’« Occident » et la « Modernité » en un orientalisme à rebours, survalorise considérablement l’expérience hispano-américaine sans accorder d’importance à l’expansion portugaise vers l’Asie, tout aussi productrice de système-monde et plus rentable, au départ, que l’Amérique. Ce latino centrisme s’écarte, chez nombre d’auteurs, de la critique du capitalisme globalisé et pointe l’« Occident », sans jamais le définir précisément, comme l’ennemi. Il dessine un « campisme anti-occidental » qui met souvent ces auteurs en fâcheux voisinage, comme l’ont montré des prises de positions bienveillantes, envers la Russie dans sa guerre de conquête de l’Ukraine. Contre le décolonial idéaliste, Michel Cahen prône un décolonial matérialiste et ne « jette pas le bébé avec l’eau du bain ».

Slave Portraiture in the Atlantic World is the first book to focus on the individualized portrayal of enslaved people from the time of Europe's full engagement with plantation slavery in the late sixteenth century to its final official abolition in Brazil in 1888. While this period saw the emergence of portraiture as a major field of representation in Western art, 'slave' and 'portraiture' as categories appear to be mutually exclusive. On the one hand, the logic of chattel slavery sought to render the slave's body as an instrument for production, as the site of a non-subject. Portraiture, on the contrary, privileged the face as the primary visual matrix for the representation of a distinct individuality. Essays address this apparent paradox of 'slave portraits' from a variety of interdisciplinary perspectives, probing the historical conditions that made the creation of such rare and enigmatic objects possible and exploring their implications for a more complex understanding of power relations under slavery.
