| Riepilogo: | Franciscan participation in the conversion of natives to Christianity, in much of old Mesoamerica, was central to the development of spiritual conquest. In addition to requiring physical effort, multiple intellectual exercises were required, some of which are presented in this document. Once the doubts about the human nature of the "Indians" were cleared, the mendicants proceeded to reflect on idolatry, and built a theory based on Augustinian thought, different from the Dominican and Jesuit conceptions. In it, the presence and action of the devil was central, being that he went beyond the discourse and manifested himself for the Christian mentality with diverse faces and always powerful, and on American soil willing not to lose the Indian tribute. La participación franciscana en la conversión de los naturales al cristianismo, en buena parte de la vieja Mesoamérica, fue central para el desarrollo de la conquista espiritual. Además de requerir esfuerzos físicos, fueron necesarios múltiples ejercicios intelectuales, algunos de los cuales se presentan en este documento. Una vez despejadas las dudas sobre la naturaleza humana de los "indios", los mendicantes procedieron a reflexionar sobre la idolatría, y construyeron una teoría basada en el pensamiento agustiniano, diferente a las concepciones dominica y jesuita. En ella, fue central la presencia y accionar del demonio, ser que rebasó el discurso y se manifestó para la mentalidad cristiana con rostros diversos y siempre poderoso, y en tierra americana dispuesto a no perder el tributo indio. |
