El territorio que actualmente ocupa la Argentina correspondía a la Provincia jesuítica del Paraguay, donde se erigieron los colegios de Buenos Aires, Córdoba, Corrientes, La Rioja, Salta, Santa Fe, Santiago del Estero, Tucumán, la Universidad de Córdoba y la residencia de Catamarca. Hacia 1767, más de 3.500 esclavos afroamericanos se encontraban trabajando en cada una de las propiedades de los colegios y residencias del territorio argentino colonial, una porción de la Provincia jesuítica del Paraguay. Los esclavos constituían un factor esencial del sistema jesuita. Prácticamente un 30% del capital ignaciano en la región estaba invertido en ellos.Palabras- Clave: Esclavos, Jesuitas, Control, Exploración, NegociaciónAbstractThe territory currently occupied by Argentina corresponded to the Jesuit Province of Paraguay, where the schools of Buenos Aires, Córdoba, Corrientes, La Rioja, Salta, Santa Fe, Santiago del Estero, Tucumán, the University of Córdoba and the residence of Catamarca By 1767, more than 3,500 African-American slaves were working on each of the properties of the colleges and residences of the colonial Argentine territory, a portion of the Jesuit Province of Paraguay.

Abstract:
This essay highlights the accomplishments of one of the foremost Jesuit missionaries in seventeenth-century Paraguay, Antonio Ruiz de Montoya. Born in Lima, Montoya distinguished himself as a chronicler of the first encounters between the Jesuits and the Guaraní Indians of South America. He defended Indian rights by speaking out against Indian slavery. Montoya spent approximately twenty-five years among the Guaraní indigenous peoples who influenced his worldview and sense of spirituality, which are reflected in his 1636 first account of the Jesuit reducciones in Paraguay, Conquista espiritual hecha por los religiosos de la Compañía de Jesús en las provincias del Paraguay, Paraná, Uruguay, y Tapé.

Abstract:
The suppression of the Jesuit order influenced the overall production and content of post-expulsion Jesuit cartography, however, important differences in terms of content and discourse can be seen in terms of maps by former Jesuits created in Europe (esp. the Italian Peninsula and Central Europe) as well as the origin of Jesuit mapmakers (Creole / non-Creole). The reasons for this included the cartographic sources that the Jesuits used in exile, the new intellectual circles within which they exchanged geographic and cartographic knowledge, and the reception Jesuit maps had among former Jesuits as well as within European commercial cartography. Post-expulsion Jesuit cartography also had important impacts on intercultural transfers between Europe and the New World more generally. The study makes a comparative analysis of examples of the post-expulsion Jesuit cartography (manuscript and printed) from New Mexico, Chile, Paraguay, Quito, and Nueva Granada.

Abstract:
The Jesuits' political, social, and economic régime had a profound impact on the Guaraní demographic system. In the relatively long period of peace and stability, between the early 1640s and the early 1730s, the population increased from 40,000 to more than 140,000. In spite of high mortality and recurrent epidemics introduced from abroad, the Jesuits' emphasis on early and monogamous unions maintained the birth rate at the maximum level under normal conditions, generating a large enough surplus of births relative to deaths to compensate for deªcits during years of crisis. The expulsion and departure of the Jesuits in 1767/68, however, set in motion a process of irreversible decline, and led to the diaspora of the missions' population.

Abstract:
In the mid-1600s, the Jesuit Antonio Ruiz de Montoya reported that man-eating jaguars were helping to convert Guaraní Indians to Catholicism. This article tests his claim by aggregating multiple mentions of jaguars found in the accounts and letters of Jesuit missionaries in the reductions of Paraguay and the Moxos from the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, including the writing of Jesuits Antonio Ruiz de Montoya, François-Xavier Eder, Alonso Messia, and Martín Dobrizhoffer. Cumulatively, their predator sightings and references suggest that, indeed, the actions of real jaguars were transforming local religious beliefs. The presence of jaguars in Jesuit records also reveals the complexity of missionary and indigenous attitudes towards animals. Jesuits often associated jaguars with pre-Christian jaguar-shaman rituals, but also considered them to be divine instruments. Indigenous peoples sometimes preserved older practices, but also occasionally took real jaguars as an impetus to convert to Christianity. Both Jesuits and indigenous peoples reacted to jaguar incursions with violence as well as spiritual reflection. Most importantly, the prominence of active jaguars on this contested religious frontier suggests that animals should be viewed as more than symbols in Christian history. Jesuit records indicate that jaguars were key third players in zones where Europeans and indigenous populations met.

Abstract:
The great economic and political changes in the Río de la Plata of the late 1700s penetrated not only Buenos Aires and the interior of present-day Argentina, but upriver the hitherto neglected province of Paraguay shared the reforms of the Intendant system and economic liberalization. Those changes, along with the expulsion of the Jesuits, produced a shift in the economy of this region from the Paraná-Tebicuary area to the northern frontier of that province. The impelling economic motive for that shift was the north's greater ability to meet the demand for Paraguay's primary export, yerba mate. By the 1780s, northern Paraguay experienced a greater exploitation of yerbales, both to the benefit of independent entrepreneurs and government revenues.

Abstract:
This article examines both how and why the Spanish Jesuit Juan Eusebio Nieremberg’s (1595–1658) once famous treatise De la diferencia entre lo temporal y eterno (1640) came to be translated and printed in the Paraguay reductions in 1705, the significance it holds in the transmission of Iberian asceticism to the American missions and how Juan Yaparí and other Guaraní craftsmen participated in its printing and enhanced its illustration. It situates the Guaraní imprint within the context of early modern mission practices and the book-trade of Counter-Reformation Europe, and seeks to show how—in what some scholars consider to be a collaborative enterprise between missionaries of the Society of Jesus and the tribal peoples—the Guaraní edition of the treatise sheds light on the vast global network the Jesuits established in their transmission of faith and knowledge between Europe, Asia, and the Americas.

Abstract:
The notion of accommodation, or the adaptation of one’s message to one’s audience, has been regarded as a central feature of the Jesuit way of proceeding at least since the seventeenth century. In recent years, scholars have come to understand accommodation as a rhetorical principle, which—while rooted in the rules of classical oratory—permeated all the works and ministries performed by the Jesuits of the Old Society. By comparing the theoretical notions about accommodation and the advantages and risks of adapting both the Christian message to native cultures and vice versa, this paper shows how and under what conditions the Jesuit missionaries were able to translate this rhetorical principle into a proselytizing praxis. By focusing on the examples of José de Acosta in Peru, Matteo Ricci in China, and of those Jesuits working in the missions in Paraguay and Chile, this essay will show how the needs in the missionary field superseded and overruled the theoretical requirements set beforehand. They revealed the ways in which the political and cultural context in which the missionaries operated determined the negotiations needed in order to achieve a common ground with their would-be converts if their mission was going to happen at all.

Abstract:
A cartografia produzida por membros da Companhia de Jesus foi essencial para o conhecimento geográfico de diversas partes do mundo. Os religiosos tinham contato, muitas vezes de maneira informal, com as práticas envolvidas no ofício cartográfico, dentro das possibilidades e necessidades de cada contexto de missionação. No caso da Província Jesuítica do Paraguai, a matemática, a astronomia e os relatos geográficos deram à ordem religiosa a possibilidade de criar uma representação da região que figurou como a mais importante fonte de informações sobre o local para os geógrafos europeus dos séculos XVII e XVIII. As representações espaciais do Paraguai dos jesuítas estão consubstanciadas na série de mapas da \"Paraquariae Provinciae\". Tal documentação fortaleceu a justificativa para a missionação na região. No século das Luzes, a presença da Companhia de Jesus no Paraguai foi duramente questionada pelos filósofos e administradores ilustrados. Esta investigação sobre a representação da Província Jesuítica do Paraguai na cartografia missionária evidencia como tais imagens foram reproduzidas pelos críticos da Ordem religiosa, tendo sido reelaboradas pela proapaganda antijesuítica.<br>The maps produced by members of the Society of Jesus was essentials to the geographical knowledge of various parts of the world. The priests had contact, often informally, with the pratices involved in the cartography profession, within the possibilities and needs of each missionary zeal surrounding context. In the case of the Jesuit Province of Paraguay, mathematics, astronomy and geography reports, gave the possibility of creating a representation of the region which ranked as the most important source of information about the region for the european geographers of the XVII and XVIII centuries. The spatial representations of the Jesuits of Paraguay, is embodied in a series of maps \"Paraquariae Provinciae\". Such documentation strenghtened the justification for the missionary presence in the region. In the age of Enlightenment, the presence of the Jesuits in Paraguai was harshly questioned by philosophers and administrators illustrated. This research on the representation of the Jesuit Province of Paraguay in the mapping, shows how the se images were reproduced by critics of the Society of Jesus, having been re-developed by jesuit enemies.

Abstract:
Esta pesquisa aborda as relações entre os europeus e as populações ameríndias na construção da colonização da América meridional, nos limites entre os domínios dos Impérios ibéricos entre os séculos XVI e XVII. O trabalho analisa diversos modelos de ocupação e de consolidação da empresa colonial nos territórios da capitania de São Vicente, parte do Estado do Brasil, e das províncias do Paraguai e Rio da Prata, pertencentes às Índias de Castela. Por serem territórios em fronteira (ainda que não demarcada à época), é possível perceber os conflitos e ao mesmo tempo os intercâmbios entre os agentes de ambas as partes. Dentro dessa conjuntura, são analisadas as alianças e guerras entre os índios e colonizadores, as missões jesuíticas e as bandeiras efetuadas pelos moradores da capitania de São Vicente. Esses temas convergem, por sua vez, para a centralidade dos povos indígenas na compreensão desse processo.<br>This research approaches the relationships among the Europeans and the Amerindian populations in the construction of the colonization of southern America, in the limits among the domains of the Iberian Empires between the 16th and 17th centuries. The work analyzes several occupation and consolidation models of the colonial company in the territories of São Vicentes captaincy, in part of Brazil, and in the provinces of Paraguay and the Rio da Prata, belonging to Índias de Castela. Being territories in border (although no demarcated in that time), it is possible to notice the conflicts and at the same time the interchange among the agents of both parts. In this conjuncture, the alliances and wars are analyzed among the Indians and settlers, the Jesuit missions and the expeditions accomplished by the residents of São Vicentes captaincy. These themes converge, for their part, to the centrality of the indigenous people in the understanding of this process.

Abstract:
This is an investigation of the epic poetry produced in and about the Ibero-American world during the early modern period (sixteenth to eighteenth centuries) in trilingual perspective: in addition to the more familiar Spanish- and Portuguese-language texts, consideration is also––and, for the purposes of the thesis, above all––given to material in Latin. Latin was the third of the international literary languages of the Iberian imperial world; it is also by far the most neglected, having fallen between the cracks of modern disciplinary boundaries in their current configurations. The thesis seeks to rehabilitate the Latin-language component as a fully-fledged member of the Ibero-American epic tradition, arguing that it demands to be analysed with reference not only to the classical and classicising traditions but to those same themes and concerns––in this case, the centre|periphery binary––as are investigated for counterparts when in Spanish or Portuguese. The crucial difference is that––while the ends may be the same––the means of thematising these issues derive in form and signifying power from interactions with the conceptual vocabularies and frameworks of the Greco-Roman epic tradition. How is America represented and New World space figured––even produced––in a poetic idiom first developed by ancient Mediterranean cultures with no conception whatsoever of the continent of the western hemisphere? At the core is one such long neglected Ibero-American Latin-language epic by a figure who lived across the Iberian imperial world: the 'De Invento Novo Orbe Inductoque Illuc Christi Sacrificio' (Faenza, 1777) by Catalan-born Jesuit José Manuel Peramás. Peramás’s epic––which has never been the subject of a literary-critical study before––is offered as a test case: an exercise in analysing a Latin-language Hispanic epic qua Hispanic epic and setting it into Ibero-American literary-cultural context. This is to be understood in relation to the field of so-called ‘New World poetics’: an at present emergent zone of inquiry within Iberian colonial studies which until now has been developing almost completely without reference to the Latin-language portion of the corpus.

Na Província Jesuítica do Paraguai, entre os anos de 1609 e 1768, os jesuítas fundaram as reduções de índios com o objetivo de civilizar e converter ao cristianismo os gentios. Nesse processo de redução houve a necessidade de deslocar as mulheres de suas atividades tradicionais. A partir das prescrições de gênero ocidentais foram conferidos às mulheres indígenas espaços restritos de atuação com a finalidade de diminuir o seu prestígio junto aos grupos ameríndios. Apesar da tentativa dos padres de impor uma rotina, circunscrevendo as mulheres ao espaço doméstico e/ou de confinamento, houve apropriações e resistências a este ordenamento sugerido. O trânsito intenso das mulheres, na construção criativa dos espaços de sociabilidade, faz delas agentes de mediação muito além do papel idealizado pelos jesuítas, restrito à maternidade e ao lar.

The analysis will be carried out from the conflict involving the jesuits and the Franciscan Bernardino de Cádenas, nominated Bishop of Assunção in 1638 and Governor in 1649, thus gathering both the religious and the civil power of the Province in his hands. The time ranging between the two nominations corresponds to the period of the conflict which starts at the arrival of the new Bishop to Paraguay, in 1642 and will continue up to1660, when the courts of Rome and Spain will decide on the conflict. The feud breaks out due to the economic crisis in Paraguai, as the local settlers could not find satisfactory native labor to help them. Their difficulties continued increasing, mainly after the jesuits stablished the Jesuitic reductions according to which the reduced natives could not be incorporated to the encomienda system. This study will also indicate some differences and similarities in the reduction model proposed by the religious Orders, as well as their relations with the Royal Patronage, which will start to provide the jesuits with privileges, originating an overlap of powers which will generate the conflict.<br>O objetivo central desta investigação é analisar a aliança entre Estado e Igreja por meio da atuação da Ordem de São Francisco e da Companhia de Jesus no território do Rio da Prata Colonial.

A contenda eclode devido à crise econômica que o Paraguai se encontrava, visto que os colonos locais não conseguiam de maneira satisfatória a mão de obra indígena necessária para o trabalho. A dificuldade dos colonos somente aumentava, sobretudo após o estabelecimento das reduções Jesuíticas que não permitiam que os indígenas reduzidos se incorporassem ao sistema de encomienda. O estudo ainda acena nos indicará algumas diferenças e semelhanças no modelo de redução proposto pelas Ordens religiosas, bem como suas relações com o real padroado, que passará a deliberar privilégios aos jesuítas, ocasionando uma sobreposição de poderes que gerará o conflito.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the cultural interactions between the Jesuit missionaries and the Guaraní indigenous peoples in the missions of Paraguay from 1609 to 1767. A particular attention is given to the missions’ formative years in which both groups refined their cultural strategies. Specifically, this thesis will explore the collaboration between the two groups and the cultural concessions made by both sides for the project to succeed. While missions are used as an area of evangelization by the Orders that operate them, involvement with the Jesuits allowed the Guaraní to avoid interactions with other settlers and colonial authorities. By agreeing to convert, they gained the protection of the Jesuits. However, they consistently threatened to leave or to refuse work if their protectors took away their most treasured cultural elements: their divine language and their use of sacred herbs like yerba mate. Furthermore, this thesis delves into power relations in the forgotten frontier. An inconsequential source of income for the Spanish Crown, the Province of Paraguay’s main importance was a presence in the buffer zone next to the Portuguese Empire in Brazil. Actors in this frontier─including the Guaraní and the Jesuits─were granted more autonomy and were able to interact with very little royal interference, resulting in an organic cultural exchange between the groups.

Abstract:
In spite of the well-known importance of written norms and administrative structures in the Society of Jesus, there are only a few specialized studies of these subjects. A very general concept of a monolithic and centralized religious order is prevalent. But when administrative practices and internal communication are analyzed thoroughly, it becomes clear that Jesuit structures were based on consultative guilds which took part in decision-making processes. Among the least investigated administrative topics, the freedom of action of provincial congregations is most surprising.<br>A pesar de la importancia notoria de las normas escritas y de las estructuras administrativas en la Compañía de Jesús, hay muy pocos estudios específicos sobre estos aspectos. Predomina una visión muy general de una Orden monolítica y centralizada.

Durante este período, em função das novas relações históricas, os guarani e os membros da Companhia de Jesus transformaram a redução em um espaço singular onde era reproduzido seus valores culturais e, o mais importante, imputado-lhes um novo sentido.<br>The present study analyzes the culture rework process of the other from the sociocultural relations between indians and Jesuits in the reductions of the old Guairá Province, in which the Spanish priests had remained between the years of 1610 and 1631.

Abstract:
This chapter examines communism. Communism in premodern circumstances was extremely rare. It requires a very considerable break in normal societal relations in order to institutionalize it. Conquest certainly creates a break of this sort, and it is this that explains the Jesuit communist communities in Paraguay quite as much as it does Sparta. Equally, millenarian expectations of religious charisma more generally so disrupt the normal as to induce social experimentation. The general point is reinforced by the aberrant case of early Iranian communism. Here the sharing of women was suggested by a ruler, Kavadh I, who was keen to discipline his nobility; once the idea had been put into practice and the nobility weakened, its ideology then came to be adopted by Mazdak, the leader of a peasant revolt.
