ResumoIn 1838, a paper on the slave trade was published anonymously in Rio de Janeiro. Historians have considered bishop José Joaquim da Cunha de Azeredo Coutinho to be the author of the document. This article criticizes such attribution and ascribes it to José Carneiro da Silva, 1st Viscount of Araruama. Finally, the authors place Silva's defense of the slave trade within the context of the political debates of the 1830s.
