Resumo

About twenty relaciones addressed to Vuestra Alteza Philip II and to Su Majestad of Spain Charles V concerning the abuses and exactions perpetrated in the New World during the first half of the XVIth century compose the Brevísima relación de la destrucción de las Indias (1542) written by the Dominican friar Bartolomé de Las Casas. He stages in a dramatic way his intentions to persuade his readers. We examine this approach in the light of the linguistic and sociability relations that subtend the texts.
