Resumo: Throughout the modern age, the Holy Houses of Mercy (Santas Casas de Misericórdia) were the main poor-relief institutions of the Portuguese empire. Based on the Lisbon model, similar establishments were organized, aiming to exercise charity according to the 14 works of mercy. However, despite of an ideal of universalism, the Misericórdias were very different. This article discusses the institutional dynamics of the empire, focusing on the example of Portuguese America between 16th century and early 19th century.

A partir do modelo de Lisboa, organizavam-se estabelecimentos semelhantes do ponto de vista organizacional, que pretendiam exercer a caridade a partir das 14 obras de misericórdia. No entanto, apesar de um ideal universalizante, as Misericórdias eram muito diferentes entre si. Este artigo discute a dinâmica institucional do império, centrando-se no exemplo da América portuguesa entre o século XVI e o início do século XIX.Editora FGV2014-08-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/article/view/32469Revista Estudos Históricos; Vol. 27 No. 53 (2014): Poverty; 5-25Revista Estudos Históricos; v. 27 n. 53 (2014): Pobreza; 5-252178-14940103-2186reponame:Estudos Históricos (Rio de Janeiro)instname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/article/view/32469/31276Franco, Renato Júnioinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2017-09-13T13:48:53Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/32469Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rehONGhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/oai||biblioteca.digital@fgv.br||eh@fgv.br2178-14940103-2186opendoar:2024-03-06T13:01:58.620954Estudos Históricos (Rio de Janeiro) - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true
