I28-R145-7754_oai2025-11-17 Rodrigues Montes D'Oca, Fernando 2015-12-04 The purpose of this article is to briefly present two points of the Anti-Slavery Project developed by Francisco José de Jaca, OFM Cap (1645-1689) and Epifanio de Moirans, OFM Cap (1644-1689). These points refer to the discourse of Jaca and Moirans about the titles of slavery and the trading of slaves. Through the presentation of these two points it can be perceived that these Capuchin missionaries were very committed to the defense of the freedom of the African slaves. Unlike other authors who had written about black slavery, Jaca and Moirans took on the role of advocates for African slaves and, in a prophetic way, were not afraid to denounce the injustices of the trade and to preach the manumission of all African slaves. El propósito de este artículo es presentar brevemente dos puntos del Proyecto antiesclavista desarrollado por Francisco José de Jaca, OFM Cap (1645-1689) y Epifanio de Moirans, OFM Cap (1644-1689). Esos puntos se refieren al discurso de Jaca y Moirans acerca de los títulos de esclavitud y la compra y venta de esclavos. Por medio de la presentación de esos dos puntos se puede percibir que esos misioneros capuchinos estaban muy comprometidos con la defensa de la libertad de los esclavos africanos. A diferencia de otros autores que habían escrito sobre la esclavitud negra, Jaca y Moirans asumieron el papel de abogados de los esclavos africanos y, con talante profético, no tuvieron temor de denunciar las injusticias de la trata y de predicar la manumisión de todos los esclavos africanos. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7754 eng Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/petm/article/view/7754/6823 Patristica et Mediævalia; Vol. 36 (2015); 91-108 2683-9636 Títulos de esclavitud comercio de esclavos libertad manumisión siglo XVII Titles of slavery Slave trade Freedom Manumission 17th Century Two capuchins friars in defense of African slaves’ liberty: Francisco José de Jaca and Epifanio de Moirans info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=patris&d=7754_oai |
