SUMMARY:

The study focuses on examining the credit relations and practices in Maranhão from the latter half of the 18th century to the early 19th century. The study draws data from wills and post-mortem inventories of individuals from São Luís and Ribeira do Itapecuru. The analysis involves cross-referencing information to identify the different forms of interpersonal, family and commercial relationships, reasons for seeking credit, and spaces and strategies used for transactions involving credit in the area under scrutiny. The study provides insights into how credit businesses were part and parcel of the daily life of the people of Ludovicense society and in the spaces they frequented, such as stores and bars. It also highlights the various aspects involving the daily needs of the population and the role played by each of the agents involved in the transactions studied. Lastly, the study looks at the personal and family strategies used in these businesses.
