description This article aims at studying the participation of the Mission School of Chillán in the spiritual conquest of the indigenous communities of the sourthern border of the Kingdom of Chile towards the end of the Colony. Its purpose is to analyze the role accomplished by Seraphic friars in this time and place. Archival sources examined were mission reports, royal orders, travel diaries, letters, certifications and account books in the National Archive of Santiago de Chile. This information enabled us to determine the role played by the Santa Barbara hospice and the School of Naturals in the strategies of evangelization and westernization of indigenous communities. The hypothesis proposed is that until the second half of the XVIII century, in the sourthern border of the Kingdom of Chile, the missionaries of the School of Chillán developed not only a spiritual, but also a political role. Even though this role did not harvest the expected results for the Spanish Crown, it succeeded in generating spaces of communication between the hispanic-criollo authorities and indigenous groups at the border.

El artículo se propone estudiar la participación del Colegio de Misiones de Chillán en la conquista espiritual de los indígenas, en la frontera sur del Reino de Chile hacia fines de la Colonia, con el propósito de analizar el rol que cumplieron los frailes seráficos en dicha época y lugar. Se utilizaron como fuentes de archivo los informes de misiones, reales órdenes, diarios de viaje, cartas, certificaciones y libros de cuentas existentes en el Archivo Nacional de Chile y el Archivo franciscano de Santiago de Chile. Con esta información se estableció el rol que cumplió el hospicio de Santa Bárbara y el Colegio de Naturales en la estrategia de evangelizar y occidentalizar al indígena. La hipótesis que planteamos es que los misioneros del Colegio de Chillán, hacia la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII, en la frontera sur del Reino de Chile, junto a la función espiritual, también cumplieron un rol político que, si bien no dio los frutos esperados por la Corona española, al menos contribuyó a generar espacios de comunicación entre las autoridades hispanocriollas y las parcialidades indígenas de la frontera. Cet article se propose d’étudier la participation du Collège de Missions de Chillan dans la conquête spirituelle des Indiens de la frontière méridionale du Royaume du Chili vers la in de la période coloniale. Plus exactement, notre but est d’analyser le rôle des frères séraphiques dans ce processus et dans ces lieux précis. Nos sources sont constituées par des documents existant dans les Archives Nationales du Chili et dans les Archives franciscaines de Santiago du Chili: comptes rendus des missions, ordonnances royales, journaux de voyage, lettres, certiicats et livres de comptabilité. A l’aide de ces informations nous avons établi le rôle joué par les hospices de Santa Bárbara et par le Collège des Indiens dans la stratégie d’évangéliser et d’occidentaliser l’indigène. Voici notre hypothèse: vers la deuxième moitié du XVIIIe siècle les missionnaires du Collège de Chillan, même s’ils n’ont pas été à la hauteur des attentes nourries par la Couronne espagnole, au moins ont contribué à générer des espaces de communication entre les autorités hispaniques et les groupes d’Indiens de la frontière.
