The crisis in the Portuguese Empire was already underway
in 1807, with some underlying causes found further back in time.
It created the conditions for the political split between Brazil and
Portugal, a development that virtually nobody imagined at the
start of the 19th century. The process that started in 1807
prompted the separation and defined its most lasting results: the
emergence of a Brazilian state and nation that would consolidate
itself over the next century preserving its distinctive features. The
independence process was strongly marked by progressive
distancing between the past and the future. In this sense, the
self-proclaimed revolutionary nature of the independence process
fits neatly into the broader political and intellectual context of the
time, full of conceptual innovations.
The continuity of Brazilian independence is, however, still
the most common aspect highlighted by most historians and nonhistorians. It is true that the creation of the Empire of Brazil
neither abolished slavery, nor upended social hierarchies for the
vast majority of the population, nor modified the highly
concentrated nature of land distribution and its overwhelming
focus on sustaining an export economy built during centuries of
Portuguese colonization. Yet, given the innovations involved in
the creation of the Empire of Brazil and their significance in the
first decades of the 19th century, the understanding of this history
gains depth, complexity, and consistency if one replaces the
simple and banal idea of preservation of slavery, social
hierarchies, territoriality or monarchy with that of re-creation
and reorganization of these elements. If not seen in this light, the
history of Brazilian independence silences an array of diverse
voices and actors who had been growing increasingly
accustomed to participating in politics since the end of the
previous century.

The passage “the broader political and intellectual context of the time, full of conceptual innovations” (in the last sentence of the first paragraph) could be correctly rewritten as a context of greater political and intellectual changes happening during an era when all innovations were of an abstract nature, without changing its meaning.

On May 13th, 1822, a group of 186 women sent Maria
Leopoldina the Letter from the Bahian Women to Her Royal
Highness Dona Leopoldina, congratulating her on her role in the
patriotic rulings of her husband, Prince Regent Dom Pedro. The
document acknowledged the contribution made by the then
princess and empress-to-be to ensuring her husband’s
permanence in Brazil, which they believed was a key factor in
gaining independence from Portugal. “Far more than just a letter,
it is a political manifesto,” notes historian Maria de Lourdes
Viana Lyra. “At that time, in Brazil, women were given a
subordinate role restricted to private household and family
affairs. Outside the domestic sphere, women were made invisible,
but that did not stop them from mobilizing politically to fight for
independence in a variety of ways,” she states.
In addition to isolated actions led by famous figures, there
were other many significant actions that are still largely unknown
to the general public, more specifically, those related to instances
of collective mobilization of women active in the public arena
during the fight for Brazilian independence. Historian Andréa
Slemian expands on the matter. “Throughout this process, many
women expressed themselves through letters, manifestos, and
other texts. Thus, the nascent press in Brazil played an important
role, not only by publishing these women’s ideas regarding
independence on editorial pages, for example, but also by serving
as a mouthpiece for views supporting women’s rights,” notes
Slemian.

The statement that, in general, women were to be concerned solely with their homes and families is explained by the gender-based division of social tasks and roles in effect at that time in Brazil.
