- Abstract
The article analyzes the trajectory of Feliciano Coelho de Carvalho in the processes of the conquest of Portuguese America, between the end of the 16th century and the first decades of the 17th century. As a ‘Fidalgo da Casa Real’, we also prospect the possibilities of service and social insertion to which this category was enabled at then. We explore part of the seventeenth-century chronicle, especially by Friar Vicente do Salvador, and the correspondence exchanged between the government of the captaincy of Paraíba and Maranhão with the Overseas Council. Thereby, we were able to reveal relevant social relationships to explain processes and strategies of social integration. I emphasize the active presence of other European vassals, indigenous and enslaved Africans, highlighting complex and multifaceted conflicts.
