Vidas reinventadas: la condición esclava en el Cádiz de la Modernidad
No full textDesde mediados del siglo XVII Cádiz se convierte en uno de los principales centros esclavistas españoles, arribando a la ciudad numerosos hombres y mujeres procedentes del norte de Africa, el Imperio otomano o el Africa subsahariana. Todos ellos hubieron de reconstruir en la medida de lo posible su existencia, iniciando nuevas relaciones humanas, en las que la sombra del amo siempre estaba presente, formando núcleos familiares, aunque ello no impidiese la omnipresencia de la explotación sexual, ejerciendo un sinfin de ocupaciones, siempre de escasa especialización, y adoptando, más o menos interiorizadas, unas creencias religiosas muy distintas a las de su lugar de origen, aunque los de origen musulmán pudieron conservar en mayor medida su religión

The Holy See appeared willing to accept a republican form of government in Spain, but the Vatican hierarchy wanted to work with a state that would protect the Catholic Church’s special role in the country. This article uses materials from 1931 in the Vatican Secret Archives—Extraordinary Ecclesiastical Affairs division concerning Spain—in order to explore this problematic relationship. The Vatican viewed the declaration of the Second Republic with caution and speculation, but as the Provisional Government worked to restructure the Spanish political system, the Vatican hierarchy grew more concerned over perceived anticlerical attacks
