Specifically, it analyzes how the crime of sodomy intersected with the public and private lives of individuals denounced to the Portuguese Inquisition, and how power relations were embedded in the enactment of sexual acts, often subjugating subjects who faced racial, age-related, and social vulnerabilities. The study is grounded in an analysis of inquisitorial documentation—including denunciations, confessions, and procedural records—from the Lisbon Tribunal, specifically focusing on the Cadernos de Nefandos (sodomy records), Solicitantes (solicitation in the confessional), and the Promotor’s files, all housed in the digital archive of the Torre do Tombo (ANTT). To deepen the historiographical debate, this work also examines the Holy Office’s Repertories, the Ordinances of the Kingdom of Portugal, the First Constitutions of the Archbishopric of Bahia, and the Holy Bible. Through these primary sources, this dissertation explores how "deviant sexuality" was experienced in the 18th century—whether openly or through fear—and how sexual conduct functioned as a mechanism of power capable of both subjugating vulnerable subjects and ultimately condemning offenders to the stake.

The press is the primary source and subject of this study, since, contrary to the notion—perpetuated by the literature on the final years of slavery—that newspapers at the end of the century did not report on slave uprisings out of fear of inciting panic among the free population of the then-Empire, this research will seek to show how such actions by enslaved people made their way into the pages of the press in news reports, articles, and other content. Based on an analysis of newspapers such as Diário do Brazil and Gazeta de Notícias, from the perspective of Social History, this research aims to understand how these newspapers’ coverage of slave crimes and acts of insubordination—both quantitatively and qualitatively—was distributed within the newspaper’s pages, how frequently they were mentioned in each issue, what role they played in journalistic discussions regarding the abolition of slavery, and whether they revealed aspects of the daily lives of enslaved people and the ways they organized to combat slavery.

To this end, the following research question was formulated: how is history disseminated through the Historiar-se channel, and how do disputes concerning the authority of the historian unfold in the digital environment? Thus, this study seeks to reflect on the historical perspective presented, as well as on its reception and public reach. Situated within the field of Digital Public History, the research discusses transformations in the modes of production, circulation, and mediation of History, paying particular attention to issues of public reach and the authority of the historian in digital culture. Methodologically, a qualitative approach is adopted, combining a bibliographic review with the analysis of audiovisual sources, especially the video produced by Professor Fernando Nicolazzi, in which the historical narratives disseminated by the group Brasil Paralelo are critically examined. The analysis demonstrates that the digital environment constitutes a space of symbolic and political disputes over the past, where the boundaries between opinion and scientific knowledge are constantly negotiated. The results indicate that, despite the challenges imposed by algorithmic logics and the immediacy of digital platforms, the conscious engagement of historians on YouTube enables the expansion of access to historical knowledge without compromising methodological rigor Fri, 27 Mar 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/50472 2026-03-27T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/50290 Title: Jogos de forças impressos: Os mundos do trabalho carioca nas folhas d´O Malho (1903 – 1906) Abstract: This study examines the main representations of the worlds of labor in Rio de Janeiro circulating in the illustrated magazine O Malho between 1903 and 1906. Grounded in the concept of the “chronicle-magazine” (revista-crônica), the investigation is conducted through the systematic collation with the daily press, thereby illuminating the retrospective and prospective dynamics deployed by the periodical regarding working-class themes. Informed by the historiography of the Social History of Labor and Culture, this research jointly examines the celebrations of May 1st and May 13th, as well as working-class leisure practices and the hundreds of strikes that occurred during those years. Ultimately, it sheds light on the ways in which the weekly’s editors and journalists framed and mediated these and other public demonstrations carried out by diverse working men and women in post-Abolition Brazil.
