摘要:Normal 0 21 false false false ES-AR X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Indians’ conquest of literacy was the result of the ways of evangelization during colonial times. Indigenous participation in this process allows understanding the rapid diffusion and acceptation of writing technologies. This aspect was particularly visible in the context of the Jesuit Missions of Paraguay, where the Indians resorted to writing in an autonomous way in particular circumstances. Here we analyze the vestiges of indigenous writing practice taking into account two messages, both written by alcalde of mission town of San Miguel, Hilário Yrama, in 1757. The first text is a “ billete ” written in a piece of paper that brings the signature of Yrama. He wrote it when he lived in the estancia of his mission town, after the occupation of the urban nucleus by the frontier expeditions sent by the Iberic crowns, in company with a group of Indians. In that moment the Indian decided to report to his superiors some of the recent episodes he had experienced. st1\:*{behavior:url(#ieooui) } /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Tabla normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-qformat:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-fareast; mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi;}
