RESUMO

This work observes the representation of the slavery in Brazil in the theatre of the XIX century, specially during the period of romatism in Brazil, analzing for pieces Calabar (1858), of Agrário de Meneses, Mãe (1859), of José de Alencar, Sangue limpo (1861), of Paulo Eiró, and Gonzaga ou a revolução de Minas (1867), of Castro Alves. The goal of this research is to show how brazilian slavery passes through processes, like metaforizations, which masked the reality of the system, thus hiding its violence. This representation is achieved mainly by the creation of deformed images of the slave, who even though being the base of the formation of Brazil, does almost not appear in a positive way in the literature of that epoch except by whitening him, but only regarding the domestic slave.
