Epistles and Their Use as Documentary Sources in Historia de Japam (1585-1593) by Jesuit Luís Fróis: Comparative Analysis of an Episode / La escritura de epístolas y su uso como fuentes documentales en la Historia de Japam (1585-1593) del jesuita Luís Fróis: análisis comparativo de un episodio

Hoyos Hattori, Paula 12 April 2018 (has links)
This paper analyzes two documents from the Jesuit mission to Japan, both written by Luís Fróis (1532-1597). They discuss the same topic: the conversion to Christianity of a young nobleman from Bungo (Kyushu) in 1577. One is an epistle and the other deals with historic issues. The comparison reveals the peculiarities of each genre, in line with the norms of the Society of Jesus. The paper concludes that epistles were considered to strengthen spiritual and identity links, as a result of which they were widely disseminated during the 16th century. / Este artículo analiza dos documentos del corpus jesuita sobre la misión japonesa. Ambos son de Luís Fróis (1532-1597) y versan sobre el mismo episodio: la conversión al cristianismo de un joven cortesano de Bungo (Kyushu) en 1577. Una de las fuentes pertenece al género epistolar y la otra, al histórico. La comparación entre ambas revela la especificidad de cada género según las normativas de la Compañía de Jesús. Concluimos que las epístolas cumplían con los objetivos básicos del género histórico y resultaban propicias para afianzar lazos espirituales e identitarios, lo cual legitimó su sistemática publicación durante el siglo XVI.
