Motivaciones barrocas. Los benefactores de las misiones jesuitas de la Antigua California (1697-1768).

Abstract

La mentalidad barroca de los donantes de las misiones de la Compañía de Jesús en la península de la Antigua California quedó fijada en los malabares financieros que les permitieron obtener múltiples beneficios. Por un lado, pudieron sanear, engrandecer y controlar sus finanzas y riquezas y, por otro lado, hacerse un nombre como cristianos piadosos y personajes de reputación intachable. En este trabajo pretendemos presentar cómo los ámbitos económico y espiritual quedaban mixturados en la vida cotidiana novohispana dieciochesca. Para tal fin se han estudiado diferentes personalidades que ejemplifican claramente esa mentalidad barroca. Nos adentraremos en las motivaciones de algunos de esos benefactores de las misiones jesuitas californianas, para bosquejar un acercamiento a sus inquietudes financieras, sus intereses económicos, sus anhelos sociales y a sus desvelos espirituales.

In this study we explore the people who financed the Jesuit missions in Baja California between 1698 and 1768. The donors of these missions are characterized by their baroque mentality, which links material wealth and spirituality together. Their main concerns were to expand their sources of income, secure their economic well-being, and gain recognition as pious Christians. These operations were usually done by juggling their own interests against those of other parties. Our study of documents such as wills, letters, and commercial contracts allows us a glimpse into daily life in New Spain in the XVIII century, where salvation and wealth were intimately related. We explore the motives and actions of the donors of the Jesuit missions, and how their influence could contribute to the success or failure of the Californian missions.
