Nosso objetivo é estudar a idéia de ¿tolerância¿ presente em sua Apologia e em seu De unico. Mais precisamente, o ¿método tolerável¿ de conduzir os povos à verdadeira religião. E, ainda, ver como, pelo menos em suas linhas essenciais, a questão permeia grande parte de sua obra, sobretudo os tratados publicados a partir de 1551. Buscamos mostrar que, embora a tolerância seja, num primeiro momento, definida de forma negativa, isto é, como ¿suportação¿, no entanto é positiva e ativa. Positiva, enquanto implica uma apreciação favorável do universo indígena, sobretudo religioso. Ativa, enquanto parte de sua Apologia, ou seja, de um discurso que visa defender os índios das agressões dos colonizadores. Ademais, é ¿tolerância¿ nos limites do cristianismo católico¿; isto porque o discurso lascasiano é desenvolvido numa perspectiva missionária e visa mostrar o caminho, a melhor forma, o melhor ¿método¿ para a comunicação da verdadeira religião. Nisto consiste, a novidade de Las Casas: seu pensamento não tem lugar contra, mas a partir de dentro do catolicismo, ou seja, o ¿método¿ por ele defendido, em pleno século XVI, é apresentado como uma exigência do cristianismo em geral, e do catolicismo em particular / Abstract: The purpose of the developed in this study is not to present a full exposition of Las Casas' thought and much less is it an analysus of is complex personality. Ou purpose is to study the idea of "tolerance" in is Apologia and in his De unico. Or more precisely, to consider the "tolerant method" of leading the peoples to true religion. Besides, we also want to see the way in which that question, in its essential lines, permeates a large parte of his work, particularly treatises published since 1551. We intend to show that a although tolerance is defined, at first, in a negative form, as "endurance", it is really positive and active. It is positive, because it implies a favorable appreciation of the natives' universe, the religious one in particular. It is active, because it arises from his Apologia, which is a discourse in defense of the American Indians from aggression by the colonizers. Moreover, this "tolerance" is thought of as within the limits of the "Catholic Christianity". And it is so because Las Casas' discourse is developed in a missionary perspective and aims at pointing the course, the better way, the best "method" to communicate true religion. In this resides the novelty of Las Casas: his thought is not placed against, but arises from within Catholicism, that is, the "method" proposed by him, in the middle of XVI century, is presented as an exigency of Christianity in general, and of Catholicism in particular / Doutorado / Filosofia / Doutor em Filosofia

O enfoque e as fontes utilizadas para sua elaboração foram o nosso objeto de estudo principal. Visamos especificar a sistematização de seu discurso, responsável por uma representação do indígena, complementar à concepção de gentes inocentes da Brevísima Relación de Destrucción de las Indias, seu trabalho mais conhecido. Dentre os aspectos destacados nesta nossa análise, poderíamos citar a relação entre natureza e seus habitantes para justificar sua retórica de defesa do indígena; o uso de outros cronistas como fontes selecionadas pelo frade dominicano; o conceito das ¿repúblicas indígenas¿ como ponto de equivalência entre europeus e americanos; e as controvérsias religiosas. Portanto, discutimos esses pontos encontrados na Apologética para tentar compreender este desdobramento do objetivo lascasiano de apresentar mais argumentos em defesa do indígena / Abstract: This study is an analysis on Dominican Bartolomé de Las Casas¿ Apologética Historia Sumaria. It is a thesis about the American continent and its natives, finished in 1550¿s. His approaches and the wellspring of information that had been used by the friar were our first object. We decided to specify his written essay, which was responsible for other representation of the indigenes that supplements the ingenuous people¿s notion of the Brevísima Relación de Desctrucción de las Indias, his best known work. The main topics that we considered were: the analogy between nature and habitant to justify his rhetoric Indian support; the historical documents selected; the ¿Indian republics¿ concept, which was used to put on the same level American and European people; and the religious controversies. Therefore, we discussed those points of the Apologética, to try to comprehend the development of the Las Casas¿ purpose / Mestrado / Historia Cultural / Mestre em História

xiv, 485 p. / The organizing principle of this dissertation is that Las Casas's most famous work, the Brevisima relacion , is primarily an intricately reasoned legal argument against the excesses of early Spanish colonialism rather than a fiery polemical diatribe by the "first human rights activist." Contrary to such anachronistic (though enduringly popular) characterization, this study employs a historical perspective to view this influential text as belonging to the genres of the early modern juridical tradition. Accordingly, this investigation begins by examining the historical matrix of fifteenth-century and early sixteenth-century Spain to properly contextualize Las Casas's early life and certain initial colonial institutions of the Spanish Indies. Similarly, his juridical expertise is firmly rooted in an explication of his contemporaneous formation in canon law and theology. From these foundational strands of his life and work, his maturing juridical voice spoke most decisively in certain of the major debates among Spanish jurists, theologians, and politicians--as well as in the Brevísima relación --in the wake of the Iberian "discovery" of what was for all concerned a physical as well as philosophical "New World." The combined focus of subsequent chapters elucidates the fundamentally juridical dimensions of the text, beginning with the specific context accompanying its genesis in 1542 until its publication a decade later. The treatise's legal character as an official publication based on various evidentiary sources is further revealed by the text's triple function--to inform, to denounce, and to petition, which in turn corresponds to the genres of relaciones, denuncias , and peticiones of the civil juridical tradition. The Brevísima relación 's content unveils far more than this; the epistemological rationale and analytic framework are intimately linked to canonistic, Thomistic, and biblical genres of the ecclesial juridical tradition. Continuing this historical investigation, the concluding chapter demonstrates anew the fundamental grounding of Las Casas's approach in the vibrant first generations of juristic discourse of the so-called Spanish colonial era. His multifaceted juridical voice was distinctively encoded in a powerful melding of civil and ecclesial legal traditions. This dissertation intends to communicate this voice intelligibly with the proper accents of the past. / Committee in charge: Dr. Robert Haskett, Chairperson; Dr. Carlos Aguirre, Member; Dr. Stephanie Wood, Member; Dr. David Luebke, Member; Dr. Stephen Shoemaker, Outside Member
