“…Se havia a edição e venda de livros em inglês, alemão, italiano, espanhol, mesmo persa e mongol, havia também a produção e o comércio de livros em português. Essa produção encontrava seu principal público consumidor entre as populações dos países lusófonos, para onde ela era exportada, destacando-se a casa Aillaud como a líder desse segmento do mercado (Cooper-Richet, 2009;2013, p.135-140).…”

Resumo Este artigo estuda o processo de publicação no Brasil escravista do principal romance antiescravista do séc. XIX: A Cabana do Pai Tomás , da escritora norte-americana Harriet Beecher Stowe. Apresentamos as condições e modalidades de publicação do romance vigentes no Brasil entre 1853 e 1888 e nos concentramos na análise da edição, em português, publicada em Paris pela casa Rey e Belhatte, em 1853. Articulando referenciais da história social dos escritos, da história do livro e dos estudos de transferências culturais, consideramos as intervenções realizadas pelo tradutor da obra, mediante a análise do material peritextual e os direcionamentos de sentido aí propostos. Analisamos esse processo de edição como um caso de transferência cultural triangular, com destaque para a importância das mediações europeias que marcam a difusão do livro da autora norte-americana no Brasil. Demonstramos, finalmente, como a edição estudada buscou atenuar as expectativas sociais originais do romance. Ao substituir o imediatismo do abolicionismo de Stowe por uma interpretação gradualista, a edição permitia, aos seus leitores, conceber o fim da escravidão num futuro bem mais longínquo, no mundo lusófono.

“…Andrada had published Portuguese-language newspapers in 1830s Paris that also circulated in Brazil. 25 Thus, he confidently envisioned that his translation would "reach those countries, where, more or less, one could find the same interesting scenes that Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe describes in such vivid colors." 26 Clearly, then, both Latin American slavery and intellectual life shaped how the story entered into Spanish and Portuguese, influencing how Uncle Tom spread in parts of southern Europe.…”

In March 1855, a literary newspaper in Rio de Janeiro printed the first installment of Nísia Floresta's “Páginas de uma vida obscura,” a serialized short story inspired by Harriet Beecher Stowe'sUncle Tom's Cabin(1852). Seven more chapters followed, keeping “Páginas” in the public eye for months. TheJornal do Commercio, arguably the national paper of record, mentioned the story in its announcements. Floresta (pseudonym of Dionísia Gonçalves Pinto, 1810–1885) centered her storyline on the Congo-born Domingos, the “Brazilian Tom,” who exemplified the attributes of Christian virtuosity and resignation found in Stowe's internationally famous novel. Set in the nineteenth century, “Páginas” begins with the ten-year-old Domingos's enslavement on the African coast, and highlights the human devastation of the internal slave trade through his movements across Minas Gerais and on to Porto Alegre and Rio de Janeiro. It ends with Domingos's death, at age 54, grief-stricken over his son's recent passing. In part, Floresta's “Páginas” emerged from the Brazilian schoolteacher's longstanding critiques of patriarchy, nation, and education. Twenty years earlier, Floresta had drawn from Mary Wollstonecraft'sA Vindication of the Rights of Womanto writeDireito das mulheres e injustiça dos homens(1832), a book that went through three editions in its first decade. More directly though, Floresta had connected to the so-called “Tom mania” while living in Paris in 1852. The following year, back in Rio, she wrote a pamphlet on women's education—Opúsculo humanitário(1853)—that parsed key aspects ofUncle Tom's Cabin, among a larger discussion of women's achievements internationally. Two Rio newspapers excerpted the pamphlet, and, boldly, published the chapters focused on Uncle Tom. This attention in the press raised the profile of a book the public already knew to be controversial, as newspapers had earlier carried reports of port authorities seizing shipments ofUncle Tom's Cabinin Rio, Salvador, and Fortaleza. In writing “Páginas,” then, two years after theOpúsculo, Floresta not only carried forward her literary dialogue with Stowe, but also posed the work as a challenge to the status quo. “Páginas” was necessary, she explained, because “slavery is not an issue of concern in the press.” If overstated, given that the topic of slavery was quite prevalent in public discourse, Floresta's assertion nonetheless signals an opportunity for scholars to probe further into the relationship between slavery and the public sphere in the mid nineteenth century. More specifically, it suggests connections to be explored between the press and the early reception ofUncle Tom's Cabinin Brazil, and, more broadly, connections between the representations of slavery in the press, and the institution's enduring legitimacy.
