Abstract

Para este trabalho, elegemos um estudo sobre uma «experiência jesuíta» junto dos Guaranis, que
designamos por «A República dos Guaranis». Trata-se de um processo histórico complexo que teve
início no século XVII, sob o impacto da Contra-Reforma, e que terminou em pleno século XVIII,
quando o Absolutismo, o Racionalismo e a Lei Natural dominavam a Europa. Este trabalho procura
compreender como esta realidade sociocultural se relacionou com uma das regiões do Brasil colonial.

This study analyzes a «Jesuit experience» with the Guarani people, also known as the «Guarani’s
Republic». The latter is a complex historical venture which began in the 17th century, in the wake of
the Counter-Reformation (1545-1648), and ended in the 18th century when Absolutism, Rationalism,
and Natural Law dominated Europe. Our aim is thus that of analyzing how this socio-cultural reality
was tied with one region of Colonial Brazil (1500-1822).
