Summary[edit]
DescriptionReprésentation type d'une habitation sucrière aux Antilles en 1762.jpg |
Français : Vue d'artiste d'une "habitation sucrière" type au XVIIIe siècle, gravée par Robert Bénard, et servant d'illustration à l'article consacrée à la "sucrerie" coloniale, rédigé par Jean-Baptiste-Pierre Le Romain, pour l'Encyclopédie de Diderot et d’Alembert. Une habitation est une résidence coloniale permanente avec exploitation agricole coloniale (plantation), fondée par des Européens, et dans laquelle travaille des esclaves.
Contenu de l'image : On distingue en haut à droite la maison du maître, située en hauteur et dominant l’ensemble des installations. En contrebas se trouvent les cases à nègres, organisées autour d’axes rectilignes, les fameuses « rues cases-nègres ». A gauche de l'image se situent les bâtiments dédiés à la production de sucre : moulin à eau, relié à la sucrerie abritant les chaudières. Au-dessus, sont représentées la purgerie et l’étuve, bâtiments consacrés au raffinage et au séchage du sucre. Au centre de l'image, on peut voir au premier plan la "savane", partie de l’habitation non-cultivée, et à l'arrière les champs de cannes à l’arrière. Dans cette représentation idéalisée des plantations, le travail forcé des esclaves n'est volontairement pas montré. On peut même distingué au premier plan un esclave noir en train de pécher.English: Artist's impression of a typical sugar habitation in the 18th century, engraved by Robert Bénard, to illustrate the article devoted to the colonial "sugar factory", written by Jean-Baptiste-Pierre Le Romain, for the Encyclopedia by Diderot and d'Alembert. A habitation is a plantation estate in French colonies.
Image content: We can see at the top right the master's house, located high up and dominating all the facilities. Below are the negro huts, organized around rectilinear axes, the famous “rue cases-nègres”. On the left of the image are the buildings dedicated to sugar production: water mill, connected to the sugar factory housing the boilers. Above, the purgery and the oven are represented, buildings dedicated to the refining and drying of sugar. In the center of the image, we can see the "savannah", part of the uncultivated estate, in the foreground, and the cane fields in the background. In this idealized representation of plantations, the forced labor of slaves is deliberately not shown. We can even see in the foreground a black slave sinning. |
