Resumo: In the second half of the 18th century, the Jesuits took an active part in the evangelization of the Chaco, protecting reductions created for the defense of the scarce territory conquered by the Spanish. The indigenous resistance at times was implacable, but at the cost of the sacrifice of thousands of lives. Thepresent work does not pretend to debate on the Jesuit writing as a historiographic problem, nor to delve into the biographical method and still less in the ethnographic character of the secondary protagonists since they are arduously treated subjects. We simply aspire to go through the life of a little-known missionary, through his memoirs written from exile, where he recounts the events he lived through between Mataguayos and Tobas. Moments with various vicissitudes that, despite an apologetic account, do not fail to make visible a constant disappointment at reforming a different culture, in an exhausting dedication for trying to recognize the other as an individual, in some way considered as opposed. Attempts that seem to be consoled and calm in the ostracism of exile.

La resistencia indígena por momentos fue implacable, pero a costa del sacrificio de miles de vidas. El presente trabajo no pretende debatir sobre la escritura jesuítica como problema historiográfico, como tampoco profundizar en el método biográfico y menos aún en el carácter etnográfico de los protagonistas secundarios ya que son temas arduamente tratados. Simplemente aspiramos a recorrer la vida de un misioneropoco conocido, a través de sus memorias escritas desde el exilio, donde relata los sucesos por él vividos entre mataguayos y tobas. Momentos con diversas vicisitudes que, a pesar de un relato apologético, no dejan de visibilizar una constante decepción por reformar una cultura diferente, en una agotadora entrega por intentar el reconocimiento del otro como individuo, en cierta forma considerado como opuesto. Tentativas que parecieran verse consoladas y sosegadas en el ostracismo del destierro.UFRGS2020-10-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/anos90/article/view/10028610.22456/1983-201X.100286Anos 90; Vol. 27 (2020); 1-16Anos 90; v. 27 (2020); 1-161983-201X0104-236Xreponame:Anos 90 (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGS-30spahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/anos90/article/view/100286/63325Copyright (c) 2020 Anos 90info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPage, Carlos A.2021-10-04T19:50:15Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/100286Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/anos90PUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/anos90/oaianos90@ufrgs.br||1983-201X0104-236Xopendoar:2021-10-04T19:50:15Anos 90 (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
