The paper deals with the process of circulation and transmission of knowled-ge about the “erba mate”, initiated by correspondence between Federico Borromeu, Cardinal of the city of Milan, the Jesuit missionary Diego de Torres Bollo and other informants of the Company, and the Milanese physician Iacopo Antonio Clerici. Diffe-rent modes of appropriation of the information received from Latin America are focu-sed, according to the cultural and religious universe of the recipients.
