Abstract
The ideas of the French abbot Henri Grgoire (1750-1831) - a revolutionary
of 1789 - concerning the Haitian Revolution (1791-1825), the abolition of
slavery, racial prejudice and European colonial domination had, in his times,
great importance and impact, reverberating in Brazil in multifarious forms,
not only among the clergy but also in social and political disputes during
the Regency period. Grgoire, in his writings, devoted himself to analyzing
Brazilian slavocratic society and was also responsible, in the beginning of
the 19th century, for disseminating the discussion of the Haitian political
model.
