The thesis Progressive cathecism by Joseph Colomb: inspiration for contemporary cathechetics describes one of the most important parts of work of French theologian Joseph Colomb (1902-1979). Progressive cathecism is divided into three parts - each one focuses on a group of children of different age. The aim of the thesis is to introduce content of the work, its methods and objectives. It also shows the context of Colomb`s thinking and development of cathechesis during the first half of the 20th century. In final part of this work we summarize the points which are important for contemporary cathechetics.

O processo, definido na documentação como “expansão para os caminhos de dentro”, visava à constituição de aldeamentos e à formação de alianças, com o intuito de garantir segurança no acesso comercial às rotas dos criadores de gado que seguiam da Bahia ao Piauí, bem como a constituição de um grupo de índios que coibisse a formação de quilombos nas impenetráveis rotas do sertão. Mais uma vez, as ordens religiosas foram incumbidas da tarefa de organizar as aldeias, disciplinar as almas e fornecer mão de obra nas entradas para o sertão. Coube aos padres da Companhia de Jesus a tutela dos índios da nação Kiriri, que se encontravam na margem sul do Rio São Francisco. Durante esse período de reordenação dos domínios coloniais e de implantação de novos aldeamentos, foi produzido um significativo corpus documental, que versa sobre a solicitação de índios, traz notícias sobre as aldeias, descrições dos espaços e sobre a necessidade da elaboração de novos instrumentos que auxiliassem a comunicação. Para o atendimento destas solicitações, foram realizados estudos linguísticos, com o propósito de sistematizar e normatizar as línguas locais e, assim, tornar possível a comunicação e a pretendida conversão. Na presente tese, analisamos tanto esta documentação, quanto as duas obras que visaram normatizar a língua Kiriri, o Catecismo da Doutrina Christãa na Lingua Brasilica da Nação Kiriri e a Arte de Grammatica da Lingua Brasilica da naçam Kiriri, escritas pelo padre Ludovico Vicenzo Mamiani Della Rovere e utilizadas nas aldeias de Mirandela, Saco dos Morcegos, Natuba e Geru, na segunda metade do século XVII, com o objetivo de apresentar e de discutir as estratégias de conversão empregadas pelos missionários que atuaram junto aos Kiriri, bem como o processo de tradução cultural que o Catecismo e a Gramática evidenciam. / In the second half of the 17th century, after the Portuguese Restoration, the settlement of the countryside of the Portuguese America was intensified. The process, defined in the documents as “expansion to the inward paths”, had as one of its goals the building of settlements and formation of alliances, in order to assure the safety of the commercial access to the routes of the cattle breeders, which stretched from Bahia to Piauí. A second goal was the formation of a group of natives that could repress the settling of quilombos on the impenetrable routes of the countryside. Once again, the religious orders were entrusted with the tasks of organizing the settlements, disciplining the natives and providing work force to build the roads in the countryside. The tutelage of the Kiriri nation, which was located on the south shore of the São Francisco river, was given to the priests of the Company of Jesus. During this period of reorganization of the colonial domains and beginning of new settlements, an important corpus of documents was produced. These documents tell of natives’ pleas, news about the settlements, description of different spaces and the need of elaborating new instruments that could help the communication. In order to answer these pleas, linguistic studies were performed, with the intent of systemazing and creating normatives of the local languages and, thus, make both communication and the desired conversions possible. On this thesis, we analyze both this documentation, as the two works that tried to create a normative for the Kiriri language, the Catecismo da Doutrina Christãa na Lingua Brasilica da Nação Kiriri and the Arte de Grammatica da Lingua Brasilica da naçam Kiriri. Both were written by the priest Ludovico Vicenzo Mamiani Della Rovere and were used in the Mirandela, Saco dos Morcegos, Natuba and Geru settlements during the second half of the 17th century, with the aim of presenting and discussing the conversion strategies employed by the missionaries who worked with the Kiriri, as well as the process of cultural translation that the Catechism and Grammar show.
