| description |
In 1767, King Charles III signed a decree expelling the Jesuits from the Spanish domains. This measure had a special effect upon the River Plate and Paraguay areas where the Jesuits developed a stong religious program building up a system of 30 Guarani towns known as "Provincia Jesuítica del Paraguay" (Jesuit Paraguayan Province). In this work we analyze the expulsion process in its different phases, interpreting from an anthropological viewpoint- the indigenous attitude towards the change of government. We suggest the Indians perceived this change as a continuity of their reciprocal and ritual practices of their own life style. Through several ceremonial scenes the actors gave new meaning to the Spanish-Indian relations and at the same time differences between civilian and religious power arose. The new relations had the spatial effect of making the King´s charismnatic figure central. |

Ritualidad, reciprocidad y espacio social A atitude guarani diante da expulsão dos jesuítas: ritual, reciprocidade e espaço social Wilde , Guillermo Society of Jesus expulsion process 18th century Provincia Jesuítica del Paraguay Compañía de Jesús proceso de expulsión siglo XVIII Provincia Jesuítica del Paraguay Companhia de Jesu processo de expulsão século XVIII Província Jesuíta do Paraguai In 1767, King Charles III signed a decree expelling the Jesuits from the Spanish domains.

Through several ceremonial scenes the actors gave new meaning to the Spanish-Indian relations and at the same time differences between civilian and religious power arose. The new relations had the spatial effect of making the King´s charismnatic figure central. En 1767 el rey Carlos III decretó la expulsión de los jesuitas de todos los dominios de España. Esta medida tuvo particular impacto en el Río de la Plata y el Paraguay, donde la Compañia de Jesús había había desarrollado una influyente corriente evangelizadora, formando un sistema de 30 pueblos guaraníes conocido como "Provincia Jesuítica del Paraguay". En este trabajo analizamos el proceso de la expulsión de los pueblos en sus diferentes fases interpretando, desde un punto de vista antropológico, la actitud indígena ante el cambio de gobierno. Sugerimos que este cambio fue concebido en la experiencia indígena como continuidad de la prácticas reciprocitarias y la ritualidad propia de su estilos de vida. Mediante diversas puestas en escena ceremoniales los actores resignificaban el vínculo hispano-indígena al tiempo que se instituían la diferencia entre el poder civil y el poder eclesiástico. Estas nuevas relaciones tenían un correlato espacial en el que se construía la figura carismática del Rey como "centro". Em 1767, o Rei Carlos III decretou a expulsão dos jesuítas de todos os domínios espanhóis. Essa medida teve um impacto particular no Rio da Prata e no Paraguai, onde a Companhia de Jesus havia desenvolvido um influente movimento evangelizador, formando um sistema de 30 aldeias guaranis conhecido como a "Província Jesuíta do Paraguai". Neste artigo, analisamos o processo de expulsão dessas aldeias em suas diferentes fases, interpretando, a partir de uma perspectiva antropológica, a atitude indígena em relação à mudança de governo. Sugerimos que essa mudança foi concebida na experiência indígena como uma continuação das práticas recíprocas e dos rituais inerentes aos seus estilos de vida. Por meio de diversas encenações cerimoniais, os atores redefiniram o vínculo hispano-indígena, estabelecendo simultaneamente a distinção entre poder civil e eclesiástico. Essas novas relações tinham uma correlação espacial na qual a figura carismática do Rei era construída como o "centro". Sección Etnohistoria, Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas.
