SUMMARY:

this work aimed to study and compare the networks of power and sociability of two
royal officials working in Rio de Janeiro in the 18th century, in a situation where the captaincy
receives greater prominence in relation to the other overseas territories of the Portuguese
Empire. The first royal representative is Gomes Freire de Andrada, who served as governor of
the captaincy from approximately 1733 to 1763. The second individual, D. Antônio Álvares da
Cunha, was present in Rio de Janeiro between 1763 and 1767, holding the position of viceroy,
in the scenario after the transfer of the capital. In this context of colonial governance, both built
and integrated networks of power and sociability, which motivated the investigation to map
these networks, seeking to understand how these relationships influenced the administration of
the captaincy and were eventually used as government tools, to ultimately compare them in
different administrations.
