Abstract
Resumo
Este estudo analisa, por meio das cartas produzidas pelos prelados do século XVIII, o emprego dos ritos litúrgicos e festas oficiais em prol da afirmação da autoridade da Igreja e do Estado na capitania de Minas Gerais. Àquela altura, a engrenagem do governo colonial, que envolveu atividades administrativas, econômicas e militares; não prescindiu de um aparato de representação pública dos poderes. Tratados sobre a doutrinação dos gentios circulavam pela Europa; os ritos e festas oficiais eram regulados pelas Leis do Reino e constituições diocesanas. Deveriam teatralizar a ordem colonial de dominação, produzir admiração, temor e respeito nas pessoas. As autoridades coloniais eram obrigadas a tomar parte nos ritos, de modo a reafirmar a ordem colonial e defender a hierarquia e o domínio dos espaços conquistados.
Palavras-chave: Igreja Católica; episcopado; colonização; visitas pastorais; liturgia.
