Abstract
In the parishes, at least, the confraternities considered “ordinarias” took root: the Sacramental, the Souls in purgatory and some of the Virgin Mary. The“esclavitudes” also stand out, generally with a Eucharistic sign, and others withinvocations of saints, in some cases the titular saint of the parish. Unlike thoseestablished in other churches, the parish brotherhoods were better controlled by the diocesan authority, with the parish clergy as intermediaries. Among them a hierarchy was established, headed by the confraternity dedicated to the Blessed Sacrament, followed by that of Souls. In general, all of them collaborated intensely with the same parish in the creation, more or less conscious, of a popular piety typical of the parish environment, as a form of social discipline, where the diocesan hierarchy and the confraternities themselves tried to understand each other.
