Erário Mineral, by Luís Gomes Ferreira, was first published in Lisbon, in 1735, being one of the first treatises on Brazilian medicine written in Portuguese. The book brings together the experiences of medical practices carried out by the barber-surgeon Luís Gomes Ferreira in the captaincy of Minas Gerais. In addition to a detailed description of the main ailments there, the author also describes the most effective means of healing he experienced and makes an important inventory of the medicines used at the time with their respective functions. In this reading, we found that among the remedies used were several used by the Indians and incorporated by the Paulistas into colonial medicine. A precious part of the report is the detailed information about the harsh living and working conditions to which the slaves were subjected, which facilitated the spread of diseases. Two glossaries complete and enrich this edition even further, surveying the doctors and surgeons cited by the author.

This 2000 book examines the demographic and economic history of slavery in Minas Gerais, the single largest slave-holding region in Brazil, from its settlement in the early eighteenth century until the abolition of Brazilian slavery in 1888. It utilizes the largest database ever assembled on a slave population in the Americas to reconstruct and analyse the unique history of slave labour in Minas Gerais. This slave population was remarkable in its ability to diversify economically as well as in increasing through natural reproduction, rather than through importation via the trans-atlantic slave trade. Minas Gerais therefore invites comparison with the patterns of slave reproduction found in the United States' South, heretofore considered unique. Extensively researched and finely documented, this book places the history of a unique Brazilian slave community into comparative perspective.

Blacks of the Rosary tells the story of the Afro-Brazilian communities that developed within lay religious brotherhoods dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary in Minas Gerais. It shows how these brotherhoods functioned as a social space in which Africans and their descendants could rebuild a communal identity based on a shared history of an African past and an ongoing devotional practice, thereby giving rise to enduring transnational cultures that have survived to the present day. In exploring this intersection of community, identity, and memory, the book probes the Portuguese and African contributions to the brotherhoods in Part One. Part Two traces the changes and continuities within the organizations from the early eighteenth century to the end of the Brazilian Empire, and the book concludes in Part Three with discussion of the twentieth-century brotherhoods and narratives of the participants in brotherhood festivals in the 1990s. In a larger sense, the book serves as a case study through which readers can examine the strategies that Afro-Brazilians used to create viable communities in order to confront the asymmetry of power inherent in the slave societies of the Americas and their economic and social marginalization in the twentieth century.
