Resumo: |
The objective of this study is to show the position of the Tupi of Piratininga on the Portuguese colonization project in the second half of the sixteenth century. It is constituted by two large units. The first one (chapters 1, 2 and 3), where the protagonists of this conflict will be presented: the Tupi people, the colonists and the Jesuit missionaries. Some sociocultural characteristics of the Tupi will be presented, such as the leadership, the religion and the mobility, with their net of paths between the villages and the several areas of the countryside with which they had contact. The commercial project of the colonists, who were mainly expatriates and adventurers, will be discussed briefly. The project was implemented in the coast of Sao Vicente, and was based on sugarcane culture and Indian slavery. On the other hand, the small number of settlers who lived isolated in Sao Paulo de Piratininga favoured the formation of a mixed-race society, which will, from the end of the sixteenth century on, engage in Indian traffic. The missionary project of the Jesuits, brought from Europe in the spirit of the Tridentine reform, will also be described. The second unit (chapters 4 and 5), where the indigenous response to these colony agents will be presented: the welcome, the compliance with the missionary and colonial project, and the two types of resistance, veiled and bellicose. With regard to the compliance with the missionary project, the first two royal villages, Nossa Senhora da Conceição de Pinheiros and Sao Miguel de Ururay will be described, as well as the connection between these Indians who became Christians and the colonial life. As for the resistance, the importance of the religious Tupi leaderships during the insurrections will be shown, especially in the Piratininga War, and the resistance of the autonomous Tupi, who pressured bellicosely the village of Sao Paulo until the end of the sixteenth century. Finally, the participation of an important Tupi segment in the colonial project in Sao Paulo, which resulted in the pro-slavery expeditions will be discussed. Attached, the translations, previously unpublished, of the Tupinambá myths collected by Thevet in the sixteenth century will be presented: the text of the first indigenous land demarcation in the plateau of Sao Paulo, and the first populational survey in Brazil, conducted by the Jesuit Father Luis da Fonseca around 1592 |
