O livro Monarquias Ibéricas em Perspectiva Comparada. Dinâmicas Imperiais e Circulação de Modelos Administrativos (séculos XVI-XVIII) procura dar resposta a esta necessidade, propondo, a partir de perspectivas novas, uma visão panorâmica, e ao mesmo tempo comparada e integrada, dos mecanismos de administração de ambas as monarquias. Privilegia-se, assim, a sua organização territorial, as jurisdições políticas e religiosas, a estruturação das administrações civis - e a participação nela de instituições «indígenas» -, bem como a organização militar e eclesiástica. A este respeito, como o título indica, interessa particularmente a circulação de modelos, em sentidos diversos, entre metrópole e territórios imperiais. A inter-acção e interdependência entre as instituições metropolitanas e as instituições estabelecidas nestes espaços, a circulação de agentes entre umas e outras, atravessam assim o livro, com o objectivo de proporcionar, uma leitura mais complexa, porque interligada, dos vários territórios sobre os quais o domínio político destas duas monarquias incidiu.

More specifically, it looks beyond political and commercial ties to analyze the intellectual and scholarly connections between the different African, Asian, and American spaces in which the Portuguese were present during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. In so doing, it seeks to shed light on some of the less explored circulations of knowledge within this polycentric monarchy. This allows us to observe how certain places became centers for the accumulation, (re)production, and dissemination of knowledge produced within the framework of the Iberian empires, and especially throughout the Indian and Atlantic oceans. Above all, these circulations reveal dynamics which, beyond communication with the metropolitan centers, made it possible to forge direct connections between different colonial spaces.

To this end, we will focus our analysis on one of the 18th century catalogues of the library of the Professed House of São Roque in Lisbon: The Index Bibliothecae D. Rochi. Considering the essentially apostolic (non-academic) functions that this establishment of the Jesuit Order carried out, our analysis will not focus so much on the content of the library and the thousands of volumes it contained, but rather on the materiality of the catalogue and the unique characteristics that shaped its internal organisation, making it essentially an instrument –as a sort of workshop– for the practice of writing.

For which reasons it became one of their main political goals the establishment of confessional uniformity in their peninsular and European territories, while at the same time, the promotion of religious conversion among the peoples encountered in the Americas, Asia, and Africa. Based on some interpretations in recent historiography on the character of modern Catholicism and its global spread, this chapter analyses the manner in which, within the Iberian peninsula, in the Atlantic world and in Asia, societies were characterised by their adherence to the Roman Catholic faith. Their members ended up identifying themselves as Catholics, despite the margins of “creativity” that are expressed in the ways of indoctrination, and their various expressions of a religiosity that did not always conform to the models defined by orthodoxy, and by their innumerable daily transgressions of norms. In this sense, his analysis shows the configuration of multiple cultural Catholic identities within the different Iberian worlds; or, if you prefer, of diverse expressions of a modern Catholicism, that, despite its undeniable intolerance and violence, was also characterised by a certain flexibility.

More specifically, it examines the functions of the procurators of religious orders, who travelled to Europe from the edges of the empires and assumed a privileged role connecting Europe with the Asian, African and American territories, in terms of written, visual and material culture. To this end, the study analyzes the Jesuit António Francisco Cardim's expedition from Macau, in the furthest reaches of the Portuguese Empire, to Lisbon and Rome during the 1640s. This analysis seeks to understand the strategies through which the writings, images, and relics of the Martyrs of Japan that he carried with him served as instruments to make the realities of Japan and Japanese Christianity present in metropolitan and/or Roman environments. Resumo Este trabalho explora alguns aspectos relacionados com a circulação de textos, imagens e objectos no contexto dos impérios ibéricos da Idade Moderna. Em particular, examina o papel que, a tal efeito, desempenharam os procuradores das ordens religiosas, que se deslocavam até a Europa desde os confins imperiais, assumindo uma posição privilegiada à hora de conectar, desde o plano da cultura escrita, visual e material, o mundo europeu e os espaços asiáticos, africanos e americanos. Neste sentido, a figura do jesuíta António Francisco Cardim e a viagem que, desde Macau, na fronteira do império asiático português, fez até Lisboa e Roma durante a década de 1640, permitem observar estratégias nas quais os escritos, as imagens e as relíquias dos mártires do Japão que levou

Specifically, it analyzes the role the Franciscans played, through their writings, in the shaping of the Portuguese-American world, of the way that world was thought about, and of contemporary understandings of the place Brazil should occupy within the Portuguese monarchy. It examines the visions of the Empire which the so-called Seraphic Order developed in the Brazilian colonial context, the written strategies they used, and the missionary and colonial knowledge which they employed when constructing their perceptions of the American world. To that end, it looks in detail at the Franciscan friar António do Rosário and his text Frutas do Brasil (Lisbon, 1702), in which he used his knowledge of the natural world to construct a complex plant-based allegory with clear political connotations about Brazil.

Culture & History Digital Journal, 5 (2): e013. doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.3989/chdj.2016.013. RESUMEN: Trópicos ascéticos: franciscanos, saberes misioneros y visiones de imperio en el Atlántico portugués en torno a 1700.-El presente trabajo centra su atención en el estudio de la cultura escrita e intelectual de los francis-canos en la América portuguesa. En concreto, analiza el papel que los franciscanos, a través de sus textos, desempe-ñaron en la configuración del mundo luso-americano, en el modo de pensarlo y en la forma de entender el lugar que Brasil debía ocupar dentro de la Monarquía portuguesa. Examina las visiones de imperio que la Orden seráfica cons-truyó, las estrategias escritas que empleó a tal efecto y los saberes misioneros y coloniales que movilizó a la hora de elaborar sus percepciones del mundo americano. Para ello, se centra en la figura de Fr. António do Rosário y su obra Frutas do Brasil (Lisboa, 1702), en la que el autor hizo uso de su conocimiento del mundo natural para construir una compleja alegoría hortofrutícola de claras connotaciones políticas en torno a Brasil.

concreto, analiza la obra del jesuita portugués António Francisco Cardim titulada "Elogios, e ramalhete de flores borrifado com o sangue dos religiosos da Companhia de Jesu" (Roma, 1646/Lisboa, 1650). En primer lugar, toma en consideración algunos aspectos relativos a los contextos de elaboración y circulación (manuscrita e impresa) del volumen, teniendo en cuenta sus objetivos propagandísticos y edificantes. Tras situar el escrito de Cardim en el marco de la producción contemporánea sobre Japón, se considera asimismo la naturaleza de las imágenes que se incorporaron a las ediciones impresas de los Elogios, sus múltiples raíces, su relación con las narrativas que acompañaban y el modo en el que textos y grabados reflejaban una percepción sobre el martirio bien arraigada en el discurso jesuita.
