Abstract
In this article we analyze the geographical explorations and textual production of the Jesuit Province of Paraguay related to the City of the Caesars during the 18th century. We study the ambivalence of the Jesuit belief in this city in the mid-18th century, some pragmatic texts aimed at manipulating the authorities and the relationship between the City of the Caesars and the project for the “spiritual conquest” of the Indigenous population of southern Patagonia. Finally, we explore the changes in the Jesuit writing concerning this city during the last decades of the century.
