Explicación De La Doctina Cristiana, Acomodada a La Capacidad De Los Negros Bozales, written by Antonio N. Duque De Estrada and originally published in 1823, offers a fascinating glimpse into religious instruction during the era of slavery. This historical text, written in Spanish, is tailored to explain Christian doctrine to enslaved Africans (Negros Bozales), reflecting the religious and social dynamics of the time.
The book provides valuable insight into the methods and content used to educate this specific population, revealing the intersection of religion, culture, and the institution of slavery. It stands as a significant historical document for understanding the religious landscape of the 19th century and the efforts to convert and educate enslaved peoples within the Spanish-speaking world. This work remains relevant for scholars and readers interested in religious history, Latin American studies, and the history of slavery.
