| Resumo: | The objective of this article is to show that the administration and liquidation of the rents of former Jesuit colleges, known as temporalities, were connected to the Spanish crown’s new controls over old corporations.Its analysis is based on temporalities in the cities of Guadalajara, Zacatecas, Valladolid and Guanajuato between 1764 and 1792.The historiography has centered on the pedagogical transition undergone by these colleges, but has ignored what happened with their sources of financing. This article seeks to show how haciendas and rental houses untangled themselves from colleges and began to finance the state’s new needs.Two types of sources are used to analyze the problem: the triennial catalogs of the Archivum Romanum Societatis Iesu in Rome and the sources on temporalities held by the National Archive of Chile.
