PERES, Eliane. Reading and writing learning among enslaved black people in Brazil: stories of the “unrecorded”. Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2020, vol.19, n.1, pp.149-166. Epub 30-Mar-2020. ISSN 1982-7806. https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v19n1-2020-10.
This paper analyzes newspapers ads from the first decades of the 19th century to identify where, how, and from whom enslaved men, women, and children learned to read and to write. This research indicates that, in general, priests, ladies, young women from Europe, for example, were the people who taught reading and writing skills to enslaved people, in their own home. Furthermore, this study shows the relation between teaching those first letters and teaching skills used in home chores and in specialized labor, as the ads themselves reveal.
