Abstract

This chapter by Ivana Stolze Lima examines the African slave experience of the Portuguese language in Rio de Janeiro between 1822 and 1860, and discusses the origins of the national language in Brazil, which can be related to the slavery of people of African descent. The main sources explored are newspaper advertisements, whilst keeping the context in mind through other contemporary discourses such as literature, legislation and historiography. Through language, the author explores the experiences of difference and the significance of African languages to the development of the national language—Brazilian Portuguese.
