En este artículo analizamos las exploraciones geográficas y la producción textual de la Provincia Jesuítica del Paraguay relacionadas con la Ciudad de los Césares durante el siglo XVIII. Estudiamos la ambivalencia de la creencia jesuítica en esta ciudad a mediados del siglo XVIII, algunos textos pragmáticos destinados a manipular a las autoridades y la relación entre la Ciudad de los Césares y el proyecto para la “conquista espiritual” de la población indígena de la Patagonia meridional. Finalmente, exploramos los cambios en la escritura jesuítica relativa a esta ciudad durante las décadas finales del siglo.
