Resumen: En este artículo se investiga la relación entre las gramáticas de los misioneros portugueses, las relaciones imperiales-indígenas y la resistencia de los tupíes entre 1555 y 1630. Tomando como objeto de estudio la gramática popular de José de Anchieta, Arte de gramática de língua mais usada na costa do brasil (1555), y el Arte da Língua Brasílica (1621) de Luís Figueira, se argumenta que los focos cambiantes de estos textos representan los valores de la orden de los jesuitas y los intereses de Portugal en el Nuevo Mundo. Los misioneros portugueses pasaron del énfasis inicial en el comercio y la conversión al cristianismo con un enfoque exclusivamente oral hacia una campaña más agresiva e insidiosa dirigida a la erradicación lingüística y cultural en la región. Si bien en obras académicas anteriores se han abordado los cambios en los fonemas, morfemas y la sintaxis tupí entre las gramáticas, el presente estudio investiga los cambios históricos pertinentes entre estos textos, sus relaciones construidas entre los portugueses y los tupíes, y los giros en sus énfasis léxicos.
Palabras clave: traducción colonial; gramáticas; misioneros jesuitas; erradicación cultural; tupí-guaraní
