Slavery in Europe during the Atlantic Slave Trade, 2022

The slaves held around the Mediterranean and more widely around Europe included both "Atlantic" slaves and slaves of other geographical origins, primarily the Ottoman Empire, Indian Ocean colonies, and sub-Saharan Africa. Others came from the Black Sea and Eastern Europe. Sub-Saharan Africans arrived in Europe via the Barbary Regency ports and Egypt. Slaves' personal histories were often complex and surprising because of the intricacies of global slave mobility and continuous changes of ownership. There is a general theoretical distinction between captives from the Ottoman Empire and its satellite states, defined as temporary slaves, and slaves from the Atlantic or sub-Saharan Africa, even if they sometimes lived the same experience in Europe. Ransom demands and payments were a significant form of commerce in the Mediterranean basin until the middle of the 19th century and slavery persisted in Europe throughout the 1800s.

slaves, conversion and skin colour in Rome and the colonial world in the
18th century. It relies on sources produced by the House of Catechumens
of Rome, the Soldatesche e Galere fund in the State Archives of Rome, and
records of doubtful cases (dubia) of baptism held in the Holy Office. Specifically,
the article will present and compare some doubtful cases of baptism
imparted to slaves in the Atlantic colonial world and to other Muslim slaves,
or former slaves from the Ottoman Empire and its satellite states, in Europe.
For the Curia, the characteristics and qualities associated with slaves or free
people of colour acquired a meaning according to their presumed socio-cultural and geographical origins. There were great differences in the characteristics and qualities prescribed to those coming from the Mediterranean as opposed to the colonial world.
