"Los Invisibles" en las Visitas y Padrones. Algunas notas en torno a los registros en los pueblos de indios. Paraguay, siglo XVII-XVIII

Resumo

In this paper we intend to present the invisible guaraní population in the documents, Visits and records made by the officers in Paraguay in XVII and XVIII century. Officials, governors, etc., visted the indigenous towns od Paraguay at differents times, leaving as evidence of their work, extensive files that recorded in detail the entrusted populations as well as their families and residents in said towns and colonial cities. Beyond the meticulous recording in some cases, a bypassed population can be identified, invisible but perceptible when reading the sources. We will focus on presenting it and analyzing its characteristics. With sources from the archives of Asunción, Sucre, Río de Janeiro and Corrientes among others, we will focus on thinking about the characteristics of data collections in these registers that have survived it this day, from different documents.
