| description | The majority of studies on the Jesuit priest Diego Luis de San Vitores (1627-1672) analyze his role as the founder of the mission in the Mariana Islands. Nevertheless, little has been written on his activities in Mexico and the Philippines, especially in terms of the internal conflicts within the Jesuit order in Mexico, which represented obstacles to a mission project in an archipelago of great strategic value in Asia and the Pacific. This article, principally based on primary and archival sources from Rome and Mexico, analyzes the reception of San Vitores’s mission project in the Philippines and New Spain. On the one hand, Father Miguel Solana (1668-1670), provincial superior of Manila, with the support of Archbishop Miguel de Poblete Casasola (1653-1667), supported the evangelization of the Mariana Islands following the Spanish withdrawal from Ternate, Mindanao and Jolo (1663). While the procurators and provincial superiors of New Spain were reluctant to collaborate, the Congregation of Saint Francis Xavier, and particularly its procurator, Father Joseph Vidal de Figueroa (1630-1703), defended San Vitores’s mission project tooth and nail. The mission’s final success should not just be understood as being due to the fervor and spiritual zeal of its founder, but also due to the need of the provincial superiors of the Philippines to defend the role of the Company of Jesus as the vanguard of Tridentine Catholicism on the frontiers of the Spanish Empire. |

Nevertheless, little has been written on his activities in Mexico and the Philippines, especially in terms of the internal conflicts within the Jesuit order in Mexico, which represented obstacles to a mission project in an archipelago of great strategic value in Asia and the Pacific.

La mayoría de los estudios sobre el padre jesuita Diego Luis de San Vitores (1627-1672) analizan su papel como fundador de la misión de las islas Marianas. Sin embargo, poco se ha escrito sobre sus actividades en México y Filipinas, especialmente en lo que se refiere a los conflictos internos a la orden jesuita en México que dificultaron el proyecto misional en unas islas oceánicas de gran valor estratégico en Asia-Pacífico. Este artículo, basado mayormente en fuentes primarias y de archivo en Roma y México, analiza la recepción que tuvo el proyecto misional de San Vitores en las Filipinas y la Nueva España. Por un lado, el padre Miguel Solana (1668-1670), provincial de Manila, apoyado por el arzobispo de Manila, don Miguel de Poblete Casasola (1653-1667), vieron con buenos ojos la evangelización de las Marianas tras el abandono de los presidios de Ternate, Mindanao y Joló (1663). Por el otro, mientras que los procuradores y provinciales jesuitas de la Nueva España se mostraron reticentes a colaborar, la Congregación de San Francisco Javier, y en particular, su procurador, el padre Joseph Vidal de Figueroa (1630-1703), defendió el proyecto misional de San Vitores con uñas y dientes. En resumen, el éxito final de la misión debe entenderse no solamente por el fervor y celo espiritual del artífice de su fundador, sino también por la necesidad de los provinciales de Filipinas de reivindicar el papel de la Compañía de Jesús como punta de lanza del catolicismo tridentino en las fronteras del imperio hispánico.
