Dissertação (Mestrado em História Ibérica) - Universidade Federal de Alfenas, Alfenas, MG, 2017.https://repositorio.unifal-mg.edu.br/handle/123456789/1161The research seeks to examine how slavery present in the classical world, especially in the Roman Empire, and during the Middle Age remained legal in some parts, gained strength again during the 14th and 15th centuries. In that context, under a strong influence of the medieval imagination, sought to justify the slave trade and the practice of slavery in light of biblical passages, and the Church through papal bulls, given the Portuguese the mission to retake that system. To this end, the study sought to analyze all the mystique that surrounded the Kingdom of Portugal, your idea of divine predestination, as well as trying to understand the reasons for the closeness of the relationship between Papacy and the Portuguese, who received through the bulls Dum Diversas and Romanus Pontífex, authorization for the conquest of the African territory, making slavery became considered not only legitimate, but also sacralized, representing as a component of Christianity itself.application/pdfAcesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/BíbliaPortugalÁfricaEscravos -- TráficoPapado - HistoriaHISTORIA::HISTORIA MODERNA E CONTEMPORANEADissertaçãoOliveira, Paulo César De
