Rosa and Gabriel between the coast and the interior of Brazil in the First Republic

Authors

Abstract

The city of Uberaba, in the Triângulo Mineiro, Minas Gerais, played an important role in the intermediation of commerce that during the First Republic took place between the coffee economy of São Paulo and the interior of Brazil. This intermediation had as protagonists uberabenses that, in different forms, fit in that commercial circuit; many of whom owned businesses that stretched north to south, going from the interior to the coast and, in some cases, to the European continent. This article aims to follow the developments of some of these commercial networks, focusing on two important actors: Rosa Maria de Oliveira and Gabriel Orlando Teixeira Junqueira.
