| Summary: | Nas primeiras décadas do século XVIII, as relações de Portugal com Roma processavam-se com relativa normalidade. Aceitava-se um poder político centrado na pessoa do monarca, independente de qualquer tutela. Decorrente disso, o Estado reconhece com dificuldade a existência de uma outra sociedade que se proclame independente a seu respeito. O sistema de privilégio, amplamente utilizado pelo pode rabsoluto iluminado,introduzirá ambiguidades no delicado mecanismo das relações entre Igreja e Estado, todavia a ingerência do poder civil nas questões religiosas nem sempre deu bom resultado. This article deals with issues relating to the documents of the Apostolic Nunciature of Lisbon existing in the Secret Archives of Vatican in Rome, written between the seventeenth and twentieth century resulting from their appointment and removal. In three centuries the church has suffered numerous transformations that documents and correspondence of the Apostolic Nunciature realize. The documentation related to the East presents several issues of great importance, but both the patterns and theMissions in the East deserve special attention given its historical significance and its overwhelming presence in the documents. The institution of the apostolic nunciatures occurred in the late fifteenth century. The institutionalization of this service was the result of a process that had its beginning even before the first millennium. The Nunciature of Lisbon as a permanent institution will be consolidated in the first decades of the sixteenth century. In future, the institution as Nunciature will be an instance sealer of Portugal’s relations with Rome, not exhausting, however, all the mechanisms of relationship with the Apostolic Church. The documents summarized on the East present several issues of great importance. The history of Portugal, at the outset, fits naturally within this eclesiastic organization. The history of Portuguese Overseas patronage, whether they study in Brazil, Africa or the East, follows the same principles. One can easily notice that the history of Portuguese patronage in Brazil or Africa is much more peaceful than in the East since in the East Portugal lost out to competition from outsiders. The displacement of the center of gravity of the overseas expansion of the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic based on new structures of exploitation of resources and the systematic colonization of Brazil. In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century this colony continues to be fixed of the preferred destination of Portuguese emigration.The areas listed in African in the constitucional texts were a number of territories around the African-Atlantic and Indic areas. The Portuguese colonial empire proved to be great and persistent thanks to the efforts concerted between missionary activity and the portuguese State. |
