Abstract in Portuguese
Este trabalho pretende apontar algumas características da retórica epistolar presentes nas cartas trocadas entre Francisco Pinheiro, grande mercador lisboeta da primeira metade do século XVIII, e seus familiares e amigos enviados para representá-lo no trato em algumas partes da América lusa. Com o pressuposto de que os recursos presentes nas cartas cumprem um fim pragmático esperado segundo o costume retórico de longa duração, primeiramente se busca um olhar para as cartas que supere as hipóteses feitas sobre elas em sua transcrição e publicação na obra intitulada Negócios Coloniais. Assim, ao constituir os papéis novamente como ruínas de um tempo que já é morto, espera-se alcançar e delimitar a noção de negócio presente nas relações dos tratantes do Antigo Estado português. Esse exercício se espera realizado por meio de ao menos dois procedimentos: o primeiro consiste em especificar a retórica atuante no horizonte de possibilidades daqueles mercadores segundo uma genealogia do gênero epistolar; o segundo incide no papel que essa retórica cumpre associada aos códigos teológicopolíticos que permitem tal atividade ser chamada de trato. Destarte, pretende-se delinear o quanto a noção de carta, nesse contexto, auxilia na compreensão da noção de negócio, pois o que nos séculos XVII e XVIII se entende por relação de amizade baliza os parâmetros de ambas.

Abstract in English
This work aims to point out some characteristics of epistolary rhetoric present in letters exchanged between Francisco Pinheiro, grand Lisbon merchant of the first half of the XVIIIth century, and members of his family and friends who were sent to trade in regions of Portuguese America. Through the assumption that the resources present in those letters play a pragmatic order expected in the long term of the rhetorical institution, we first searched for a look at the letter that surpasses the hypotheses made upon their transcription and publishing in the work entitled Negócios Coloniais. Therefore, whenever looking at the papers again as ruins of a time that is already dead, we expect to reach and define the notion of business shared by the tradesmen of the Old Portuguese State. We expect to accomplish this exercice through at least two procedures: the first one is to situate the active rhetoric on the horizon of possibilities of expression of those merchants within a genealogy of the epistolary genre; the second, in turn, focuses on the role of rhetoric associated to the theological-political codes that allow an activity called affair. Thus, we intend to draft how the notion of letter in this context helps to understand the concept of business, in order to show that, in XVIIth and XVIIIth centuries, what was meant as a relationship of friendship was the the goal of both.
