Resumen
En este trabajo presentamos una biografía construida con fuentes editas e inéditas sobre el jesuita Antonio Machoni con el objetivo de visualizar la diversificada labor que desarrolló en la Provincia del Paraguay en la primera mitad del siglo XVIII. Cumplió funciones en los más importantes ministerios de la Compañía de Jesús, una vez concluidos sus estudios en el Colegio Máximo de San Ignacio de Córdoba, donde además fue profesor y rector en las postrimerías de su vida. Pero también fue un destacado misionero entre etnias no cristianizadas y de difícil acercamiento, completando funciones como procurador a Europa y provincial. En cada una de estas actividades dejó publicaciones que marcan su experiencia y transferencia de conocimientos para sus continuadores. Se in-tenta resumir una de esas tantas “vidas ilustres”, poco reconocidas, que pretendemos enmendar como ejemplo de vida pastoral en las remotas tierras americanas.
In this paper we present a biography constructed with published and unpublished sources on the Jesuit Antonio Machoni with the aim of visualizing the diversified work he carried out in the Province of Paraguay in the first half of the 18th century. He fulfilled functions in the most important ministries of the Society of Jesus, once he finished his studies at the Colegio Máximo de San Ignacio de Córdoba, where he was also professor and rector in the last years of his life. But he was also an outstanding missionary among ethnic groups that were not Christianized and difficult to approach, completing functions as procurator to Europe and provincial. In each of these activities he left publications that mark his experience and trans-fer of knowledge to his continuators. We try to summarize one of those many "illustrious lives", little recognized, which we intend to amend as an example of pastoral life in the re-mote American lands.
