  • André Rebouças (* 13. Januar 1838 in Cachoeira; † 9. Mai 1898 in Funchal) war ein brasilianischer Ingenieur und Abolitionist. Sein Vater, Antônio Pereira Rebouças, war Sohn eines weißen Schneiders und einer freigelassenen Sklavin. Als Autodidakt hatte er es zum Anwalt gebracht. Zusammen mit seiner Frau und seinen sieben Kindern zog Rebouças im Februar 1846 nach Rio de Janeiro. André Rebouças besuchte nach der Grundschule die Militärschule. Im Anschluss daran studierte er Ingenieurwissenschaften und erhielt 1860 das Ingenieursdiplom. Von 1861 bis 1862 machte André Rebouças mit seinem Bruder Antônio eine Reise nach Europa. Nach ihrer Rückkehr arbeiteten sie im Hafenbau und in der Küstenbefestigung. Nach seinem Dienst als Militäringenieur im Tripel-Allianz-Krieg gegen Paraguay modernisierte André Rebouças die Wasserversorgung von Rio de Janeiro. Darüber hinaus engagierte er sich in Wirtschaft und Politik. Er war Berater des brasilianischen Kaisers Dom Pedro II. In den 1880er Jahren gründete er zusammen mit Joaquim Nabuco und José do Patrocínio die Brasilianische Gesellschaft gegen die Sklaverei ("Sociedade Brasileira contra a Escravidão"). Die Tatsache, dass er selbst Mulatte war, also Nachfahre schwarzer Sklaven, es aber zu hoher gesellschaftlicher Anerkennung gebracht hatte, verlieh den Forderungen der Abolitionisten besonderes Gewicht. Nach dem Militärputsch vom 15. November 1889 wurde Rebouças gezwungen, zusammen mit der königlichen Familie nach Europa ins Exil zu gehen. Zwei Jahre lang arbeitete er, bis zum Tod Pedros II., als Korrespondent der London Times in Lissabon. 1892 arbeitete er für gut ein Jahr in Angola, bevor er sich auf Madeira niederließ. Dort starb er 1898 durch Suizid. (de)
  • André Pinto Rebouças (13 January 1838 – 9 April 1898) was a Brazilian military engineer, abolitionist and inventor, son of (1798–1880) and Carolina Pinto Rebouças. Lawyer, member of Parliament (representing the Brazilian state of Bahia) and an adviser to Pedro II of Brazil, his father was the son of a manumitted slave and a Portuguese tailor. His brothers and José Rebouças were also engineers. Despite racial prejudice, his father, a mulatto, was an important and prestigious man at the time. Self-taught to read and write, he had been granted the right to practice law throughout the country, represented Bahia in the Chamber of Deputies on a range of legislatures, was secretary of the Provincial Governorship of Sergipe, advisor to the emperor, and had received the title of Knight of the Imperial Order of the Southern Cross in 1823. Rebouças became famous in Rio de Janeiro, at the time capital of the Empire of Brazil, solving the trouble of water supply, bringing it from fountain-heads outside the town. Serving as a military engineer during the Paraguayan War in Paraguay, Rebouças successfully developed a torpedo. Alongside Machado de Assis and Olavo Bilac, Rebouças was a very important middle class representative with African descent, he also was one of the most important voices for the abolition of slavery in Brazil. He encouraged the career of Antônio Carlos Gomes, author of the opera O Guarani. In the 1880s, Rebouças began to participate actively in the abolitionist cause, he helped to create the Brazilian Anti-Slavery Society, alongside Joaquim Nabuco, José do Patrocínio and others. After the Republican coup d'État, Rebouças went into exile with Pedro II to Europe. For two years he stayed exiled in Lisbon, as a correspondent for The Times of London. In 1892, facing financial problems, Rebouças went to Luanda and after that, Funchal, in Madeira. In 1898 his body was found at the shoreline at the base of a 60-meter-high cliff near the hotel where he lived. He supposedly committed suicide. In 2015, the Brazilian company Estaleiro Atlantico Sul built a crude oil tanker which shares the name André Rebouças. The ship currently sails under the Brazilian flag. (en)
