Este estudo analisa as relações entre a difusão da religião cristã e a afirmação da hegemonia aristocrática no processo de constituição do regime senhorial na Península Ibérica entre os séculos IV e VIII. Considera-se essencial à caracterização deste processo a articulação entre cultura, religião e relações sociais de produção em desenvolvimento no período, eixo a partir do qual se abordam as complexas questões relacionadas à conversão e à preservação de crenças e práticas alheias ao cristianismo, concebidas no quadro das relações de dominação e resistência. Com base na análise de fontes primárias de natureza diversa, como a legislação régia, a coleção das atas conciliares, a literatura hagiográfica, os sermões, a liturgia, a poesia cristã e alguns tratados dogmáticos, destaca-se a íntima correlação entre a concepção de mundo, das relações travadas pelo homens entre si e com a natureza, divulgadas pelo cristianismo, e a afirmação da ascendência aristocrática na sociedade e no período em questão. / This work analyzes the connection between the spread of the Christian religion and the establishment of the aristocratic hegemony in the formation process of the landowner system in the Iberian Peninsula between 4th and 8th centuries. The articulation among culture, religion, and the social relationships of production being developed at the time are considered essential in order to characterize this process. From that point on, complex issues regarding the conversion to Christianity and the maintenance of alien beliefs and practices as part of the framework of domination and resistance relations were investigated. Based upon the analysis of primary sources of varied nature, such as regal legislation, a collection of conciliar documents, hagiographic literature, sermons, liturgy, Christian poetry and dogmatic treatises, emphasis was placed on the close correlation between the conception of the world – the relationships among men and their peers, and between men and Nature – spread out by Christianity and the establishment of the aristocratic ascendancy in society.
