The Guaraní, Spanish & Portuguese Empires and the Jesuits.

Описание к видео The Guaraní, Spanish & Portuguese Empires and the Jesuits.

Join us, movie and history fans, for an introduction to the historical background and issues surrounding the issues of nine feature-length films for Capstone: World History and Events Through Film. In this first episode we examine the background and some of the issues surrounding the film The Mission, taking place in 18th century South America -- who were the Guaraní and who are they today? who were the Jesuits and why were they seen as such a threat to royal power by Portugal and other European powers? and why did this rainforest area between Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil, where the Jesuits and Guaraní built missions and lived peacefully together become an area so violently disputed?
