In this episode, I present a comparative analysis of the narrative and methodological approaches employed by two prominent historians in their study of African public healing and intellectual history in the Iberian Atlantic. I will focus on James Sweet’s book titled, "Domingos Álvares, African Healing, and the Intellectual History of the Atlantic World" and Pablo Gomez’s "The Experiential Caribbean: Creating Knowledge and Healing in the Early Modern Atlantic." Both authors study individual African ritual practitioners to learn about how Black Caribbeans thought about and experienced their worlds in Brazil and Colombia respectively, through ritual and intellectual discourses.
