The first translation and publication of a 1925 doctoral dissertation written for the University of Paris by a 67-year-old Black amerikan expatriate woman who had been born a slave. Her study of the french revolutionists' view of slavery is crucial to understanding the growth of human rights.

A throwback (tootback?!) to a recent archival hunt in Paris. This is (the copy of) a #1791 #passport issued by the #enslaved insurgents during the #HaitianRevolution. They swore an oath of allegiance to Spain through the Archbishop of #SantoDomingo. The heart with a flame presumably represented the Heart of Mary, but maybe some #arthistorians out there can chime in? I also think that “MDM” may possibly stand for “Maria Dei Mater”, and “MN” for “Mater Nostra”. No certainties, though. The sketch is included in an eye-witness testimony to give the French information on the insurgents.

#introduction. I am a #Bergamo born-and-raised, Germany-adopted postdoctoral #researcher, #cat-lover, #coffee-addict. I go archive-hunting to learn more about #Saint-Domingue, the #HaitianRevolution, #AtlanticHistory, the #18thCentury. And this is who I blame whenever I am not productive (way too often).

#histodons out there! After a Ph.D. at UniHalle (#intellectualhistory, #18thcentury #Enlightenment and...battling with the German language!), I am now a postdoc at the UniTrier: #HaitianRevolution, #AgeOfRevolutions #AtlanticHistory. Here's an open-access article to cut my intro short & let my cat lie down on the keyboard.

Abstract
The purpose of this thesis is to analyze the role of the Haitian Revolution in helping to shape Jose Marti's writings on the social, political and economic conditions in Cuba during its wars of independence. The first chapter examines some of the similarities and differences between these two events (the Haitian Revolution and Cuba's independence wars) and the impact of the Haitian Revolution on Cuba during its wars of independence. The second chapter analyzes some of Marti's political essays and shows how Marti, throughout his works, mentions Haiti as an example not to be emulated. He stresses his desire for Cuba not to become another Haiti and proposes ways for Cuba to avoid the fate of Haiti. The final chapter studies Cuba's political, economic and social environment in the years following Marti's death and establishes whether or not Cuba did indeed accomplish Marti's wish of Cuban independence.
