Abstract

This article offers elements for a study of the Order of Hermits of Saint Augustine in the Province of Portugal in the second half of the 16th century and first decades of the 17th century. For the purpose of analysis, three main approaches are highlighted to try to guide the reflection on diverse contexts: the reform of the religious Order of the Hermits of St. Augustine and the connections with the royal court in the 16th century; the role of the Augustinians in the construction of discipline after the Council of Trent (1543-1563); and the presence of the order in the Indian Ocean.
