- Title
A CASA DOS SUASSUNA: REDE DE SOCIABILIDADES NA AMÉRICA E EM PORTUGAL.
- Authors
Gontijo Andrade, Breno
- Abstract
In 1801 the Suassuna brothers were arrested on charges of conspiring against the Crown in a movement that became known as the Suassuna Conspiracy. There were interrogations and confrontations that served as a base source for mapping part of the Suassuna sociability networks in Northern Portuguese America. The sources made it possible to know who visited them, how often, which social groups they belonged to, what they talked about and what they read. Although the brothers were later released on the basis of little evidence, the sources demonstrated that part of the charges, that they spoke about revolutionary ideas, were true. Other sources helped to map the Suassuna social networks that extended to Portugal. In 1817 the Suassuna participated in the Revolution that originated in Pernambuco and sought independence under a Republic.
