About this listen
O tão esperado terceiro e último volume da trilogia Escravidão, de Laurentino Gomes
Do autor dos best-sellers 1808, 1822 e 1889
Na tarde em que o príncipe dom Pedro chegou às margens do Ipiranga, em 7 de setembro de 1822, o Brasil estava empanturrado de escravidão. Comprar e vender gente era o maior negócio do novo país independente. Homens e mulheres escravizados perfaziam mais de um terço do total de habitantes, estimado em 4,7 milhões de pessoas. Outro terço era composto por negros forros e mestiços de origem africana–uma população pobre, analfabeta e carente de tudo, dominada pela minoria branca. Os indígenas, já dizimados por guerras, doenças e invasão de seus territórios, sequer apareciam nas estatísticas.
O último audiolivro da trilogia Escravidão é dedicado ao século XIX, à Independência, ao Primeiro e ao Segundo Reinados, ao movimento abolicionista, que resultou na Lei Áurea de 13 de maio de 1888, e ao legado da escravidão, que ainda hoje emperra a caminhada dos brasileiros em direção ao futuro. A escravidão era, na definição de José Bonifácio de Andrada e Silva, o Patriarca da Independência, um cancro que contaminava e roía as entranhadas da sociedade brasileira. Disseminado por todo o território, o escravismo perpassava todas as atividades e todas as classes sociais. Maior território escravista da América em 1822, o Brasil assim se manteria até o final do século XIX, com sua rotina pautada pelo chicote e pela violência contra homens e mulheres escravizados.
Nenhum outro assunto é tão importante e tão definidor da nossa identidade nacional quanto a escravidão. Conhecê-lo ajuda a explicar o que fomos no passado, o que somos hoje e também o que seremos daqui para a frente. Em um texto impactante e ricamente ilustrado com imagens e gráficos, Laurentino Gomes lança o terceiro volume de sua obra, resultado de 6 anos de pesquisas, que incluíram viagens por 12 países e 3 continentes.
Please note: This audiobook is in Portuguese.

Story
Resultado de um longo trabalho de dez anos de pesquisa, 1808 narra a chegada da família real ao Rio de Janeiro, acossada pelas tropas do imperador francês Napoleão Bonaparte. Nunca algo semelhante havia acontecido na história de Portugal ou de qualquer outro país europeu. Em tempos de guerra, reis e rainhas haviam sido destronados ou obrigados a se refugiar em territórios alheios, mas nenhum deles foi tão longe quanto o príncipe regente Dom João VI, forçado a cruzar um oceano com toda a família real portuguesa para viver e reinar do outro lado do mundo.

Story
Em 1822, Laurentino Gomes compara diferentes relatos sobre o dia 7 de Setembro e a proclamação da independência. A verdade é que esse fatídico dia foi bem menos épico do que a pintura “Independência ou Morte”, de Pedro Américo, nos mostra. Mais do que desmistificar o grito às margens do Ipiranga, o escritor analisa como Dom Pedro conseguiu, apesar de todas as dificuldades, fazer do Brasil uma nação na sequência das mudanças provocadas pela fuga da família real portuguesa em 1808.

Obra literária obrigatória para os vestibulares UEL 2025 e UFSC 2025. Um texto épico e lírico, realista e mágico que revela, para além de sua trama, um poderoso elemento de insubordinação social. Nas profundezas do sertão baiano, as irmãs Bibiana e Belonísia encontram uma velha e misteriosa faca na mala guardada sob a cama da avó. Ocorre então um acidente. E para sempre suas vidas estarão ligadas — a ponto de uma precisar ser a voz da outra. Numa trama conduzida com maestria e com uma prosa melodiosa, o romance conta uma história de vida e morte, de combate e redenção.

The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.
