Abstract in Portuguese
Analisamos a riqueza inventariada em Santa Rita do Turvo na segunda metade do século XIX. Inicialmente abordamos o nível de concentração e a composição dos recursos declarados. Posteriormente investigamos separadamente os principais grupos de ativos que compuseram os patrimônios dos indivíduos que faleceram ao longo do período recuperado e que foram inventariados. A análise particularizada permitiu qualificar o tipo de escravidão vigente, a paisagem agrária predominante e o mercado da localidade. Sustentamos que a produção de gêneros configurada em Santa Rita do Turvo assumiu proporções relevantes, conheceu certa estabilidade no correr da segunda metade do Oitocentos e conferiu movimento ao cenário econômico da localidade, independentemente de conexões com regiões de economias mais complexas e vultosas. Contudo, admitimos que as questões apontadas na tese tiveram como base um grupo restrito da população da localidade e não o conjuntos de seus habitantes. Certamente este aspecto conferiu limites para as análises realizadas.

Analyzed the wealth inventoried in Santa Rita do Turvo in the second half of the nineteenth century. Initially approached the level of concentration and the composition of the declared resources. Later separately investigated the main groups of assets that comprised the assets of individuals who died during the period recovered and were inventoried. The detailed analysis allowed qualify the type of current slavery, the dominant agrarian landscape and the market of the town. We hold that the production of genres set in Santa Rita do Turvo assumed relevant proportions, met some stability in the course of the second half of the nineteenth century and gave movement to the economic environment of the locality, regardless of connections to regions of more complex and bulky economies. However, we admit that the issues raised in the thesis were based on a small group of village population and not the sets of its inhabitants. Certainly this aspect given limits for analyzes.
