  • The Conspiracy of Suaçunas also known for its archaic spelling - The Conspiracy of Suassuna - was a conspiracy to overthrow Portuguese rule in Brazil at the dawn of the 19th century. The conspiracy was centered in Olinda. In 1796, influenced by the ideas of the Enlightenment and the French Revolution, several leaders, including - a member of the , and Manuel Arruda da Câmara - founded the Areopagus Masonic Lodge. The Enlightenment and the French Revolution were also discussed by priests and students of the , founded by Bishop José Joaquim da Cunha Azeredo Coutinho on February 16, 1800. This institution had, among its members, Father , involved in a future revolution in Pernambuco, 1817. The philosophical and political discussions at the Areopagus Lodge evolved into a conspiracy against Portuguese rule in Brazil, with the goal of the emancipation of Pernambuco, becoming a republic under the protection of Napoleon Bonaparte. Included in the group of conspirators were the Cavalcanti brothers - , , and Francisco de Paula, the latter being owner of the Suaçuna mill, which gave its name to the movement. On May 21, 1801, an informer told the authorities about the plans of the conspirators, which led to the arrest of several involved. Although an inquiry was initiated, the conspirators were acquitted for lack of evidence. The Areopagus Lodge was closed in 1802, and somewhat later reopened under the name of Suaçunas Academy, established in the same mill, the scene of meetings of former conspirators. The episode is little known in the history of Brazil, since the inquiry was carried out in secrecy at the time, due to the high social position of those involved. (en)
  • Conspiração dos Suassunas, ou dos Suaçunas, foi um projeto de revolta supostamente proposto em Olinda, na então Capitania de Pernambuco, em 1801. O motim compõe o cenário de crise do Antigo Sistema Colonial, durante o qual eclodiram levantes de teor emancipatório. Assim como a Inconfidência Mineira (1789) e a Baiana (1798) e a Revolução Pernambucana (1817), expressou a insatisfação dos colonos frente as políticas deficientes da metrópole Portugal, prenunciando a Independência do Brasil, decretada em 1822. Os irmãos Francisco, Luiz e José, todos de sobrenome “de Hollanda Cavalcanti de Albuquerque”, proprietários de um engenho chamado Suassuna, planejaram um motim secreto pela independência da capitania de Pernambuco. A descoberta se deu após um amigo dos irmãos, José da Fonseca Silva e Sampaio, denunciar que um deles enviava cartas de Portugal aos outros em Pernambuco, tramando a conspiração. O movimento se inspirou no discurso libertário e igualitário do Iluminismo e no caráter subversivo e contra hegemônico predominantes tanto na Revolução Francesa (1789) como na Independência dos EUA (1776). Todavia, a moção não passou de uma corrente de pensamento, que fracassou em suas ações, assim contentando-se em compor o imaginário coletivo da historiografia das reivindicações populares brasileiras. Apesar do fiasco de sua execução, a Conjuração dos Suassunas foi uma semente silenciosa do movimento mais vibrante pré-independência: a Revolução Pernambucana, de 1817. A relação se deve à constatação de que muitos revoltosos desta última conheciam os irmãos Hollanda Cavalcanti de Albuquerque e, sobretudo, pois na de 1817, depois de fracassada a Conjuração de 1801, dois dos irmãos Hollanda Cavalcanti de Albuquerque seriam afligidos pela repressão: um morto e outro preso.
