Abstract

The objective of this work is to understand the daily life in the domiciles of Belém, between the years of 1808 and 1830. Our inquiry includes the human and material composition of these spaces, disclosing strategies for the maintenance and the increment of the daily life conditions. For the success of these strategies, the relationships fulfilled an important paper, satisfying material necessities or legitimizing petitions next to Justice. In a society where material and social lives were interrelated, it was important that the interests between individuals entered in agreement, so that relations kept steady. However, for times the differences of interests would generate conflicts and then, rearrangements were necessary in order to keep the relations flowing (AU)
