Abstract
O artigo investiga a ocorrência de uma crise ligada à ação dos jesuítas da Província do Brasil, no final do século XVI e início do XVII. Tal crise se deu entre os membros da Companhia e é exposta, neste manuscrito, nas críticas dirigidas aos superiores e nas denúncias de comportamentos desviantes, feitas pelos próprios padres que atuavam na missão do Brasil. Os descaminhos da missão se aprofundaram na medida em que alguns membros da Companhia feriram os votos religiosos e praticavam violências, sobretudo no trato com os índios nas aldeias. Para verificar esses descaminhos, fez-se uso de uma documentação muito pouco explorada e, em grande parte, inédita para o público brasileiro, pesquisada no Archivum Romanum Societatis Iesu (ARSI), em Roma.
The paper investigates a crisis linked to the action of the Jesuits from the Province of Brazil, in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. This crisis took place among the members of the Society and is exposed, in this manuscript, through criticisms directed to the superiors and in the complaints of deviant behaviors, made by the priests themselves who acted in the mission in Brazil. The Mission misdirections deepen as some members of the Society dishonored their religious vows and practiced violence, especially when dealing with the Indians in the villages. In order to verify these misdirections, we analyzed documentation, little explored and largely unknown for the Brazilian public, researched at the Archivum Romanum Societatis Iesu (ARSI), in Rome.
