In order the carry out the analysis, these crimes are defined and contextualized in order to later apply them to the accusations made against the governor.

Este estudio analiza las acusaciones que llevaron a la destitución del gobernador de Chile, Francisco de Meneses, en 1668. Dichas acusaciones se abordan bajo los conceptos de lesa majestad, tiranía y herejía, todos delitos de suma gravedad en aquella época. Para llevar a cabo el análisis, se definen y contextualizan dichos delitos para, posteriormente, aplicarlos a las acusaciones realizadas sobre el gobernador. Le otorgamos, además, un especial enfoque al comisario de la Inquisición, ya que manejamos la hipótesis de que las informaciones proveídas por este tendrían un peso considerable en la toma de decisión de la regente Mariana de Austria respecto a Meneses. Este estudo analisa as acusações que levaram à destituição do governador do Chile, Francisco de Meneses, em 1668. Essas acusações são abordadas sob os conceitos de lèse majesté, tirania e heresia, todos crimes extremamente graves na época. Para realizar a análise, definimos e contextualizamos esses crimes e, em seguida, os aplicamos às acusações feitas contra o governador. Também damos atenção especial ao Comissário da Inquisição, pois supomos que as informações fornecidas por ele teriam tido uma influência considerável na decisão da regente Mariana da Áustria em relação a Meneses.
