| 520 | |a In the second half of the nineteenth-century, Germany-speaking Europe saw the foundation of some Catholic associations, which campaigned against slavery and the slave trade in parts of North and East Africa and promoted the "saving" of slaves and particularly child slaves by, for instance, ransoming boys and girls, baptizing them, and placing them at Catholic institutions and missionary stations. Examining confession-based antislavery activism in its discursive and practical dimensions, the essay argues that the successful foundation and expansion of these associations was due to both transnational structures and church networks of charity, on the one hand, and the activation and exchange of a particular set of ideas on slavery, abolitionism, Christian superiority, gender, childhood, vulnerability, and innocence, on the other. The essay suggests reexamining the relationship between German Catholicism and slavery by pointing to the various ways in which the movement of people and the circulation of information, ideas, and visions about slaves and/or slavery in parts of Africa motivated charitable acts of praying and giving, thus entering the everyday life-worlds of many Catholics in Germany. | ||
