Bedlam in the New World: A Mexican Madhouse in the Age of Enlightenment
Gamboa's World: Justice, Silver Mining, and Imperial Reform in New Spain
At the core of this history of legal culture and imperial reform in eighteenth-century Mexico is the jurist Francisco Xavier de Gamboa (1717–94), the first American-born regent, or chief justice, of the Real Audiencia of Mexico. Christopher Albi sets out to show how Gamboa's commitment to legal principles of autonomy, due process, and local custom allowed him to rise above partisan politics and his class interests to articulate informed positions…
Building Silver Bridges: Paranormal Apparitions, Settler Heritage, and Indigenous Erasure in the Ohio River Valley
Paranormal heritage" is contested and should be understood as bridging conceptual divides within dark heritage studies and settler colonial studies. Through historic/fictitious narratives, regional legends, and fortean research this article examines paranormal heritage in the Ohio River Valley, connected to the cryptozoological figure of Mothman, as a continued weaving of settler heritage. Using decolonial and Indigenous theory, it argues that th…
The Deer and the Donkey: Indigenous Ritual and Survivance in Nicaragua’s El Güegüense
This article argues for a decolonial response to elite understandings of the Nicaraguan folk play El Güegüense , highlighting a reading of Indigenous survivance. It examines the work from a perspective that seeks to eliminate the colonial interpretations placed on it by elite writers, thinkers, and nation builders. Through a review of the literature on the play, associated cultural expressions, and personal experiences and understandings, this ar…
Colonial representations of race in alternative museums: The 'African' of St Benet's, the 'Arab' of Jorvik, and the 'Black Viking
The deceased person given the label of SK 3379 by archaeologists working at the Swinegate site in York, United Kingdom, provides an interesting perspective into the world of Early Medieval Northern Europe. This person, aged around forty-six at time of death, had cranial features unlike those typically found in the area, but rather pointed towards a biology found in Africa. Informally named ‘The African’, this person went on display at the Jorvik …
Devotions of Affliction: The Dramaturgy of Colonial Epidemics
What Can We Weave? Authority, Reconstructing, and Negotiating Heritages Through Archaeological Open-Air Museums
The construction of heritage is an ongoing process, with numerous voices involved in it. Physical remains of the past frequently—though not always—play a significant role as focal points that heritage narratives attach to. As resources, these remains can be used to draw both domestic and foreign tourism, providing economic benefit to states and providing a platform from which heritage narratives may be told. Such narratives can be economically, s…
To Sin No More: Franciscans and Conversion in the Hispanic World, 1683-1830
In a fallen world, faith requires constant vigilance. That was the conviction of the Franciscans at the center of David Rex Galindo's polycentric history of the colleges of Propaganda Fide. In 1683, a time of growing suspicion of the independence of the regular missionary orders in the Spanish world, the Franciscans established the first college for the propagation of faith at Querétaro, a textile center along the road to Mexico's northern mining…

Enlightened publics for public health: Assessing disease in colonial Mexico
Out of Tlatelolco's Ruins: Patronage, Devotion, and Natural Disaster at the Shrine of Our Lady of the Angels, 1745-1781
Colonial inhabitants of Mexico City were accustomed to coping with natural disasters, including disease epidemics, droughts, floods, and earthquakes, which menaced rich and poor alike and stirred fervent devotion to miraculous images and their shrines. This article revisits the late colonial history of the shrine of Our Lady of the Angels, an image preserved miraculously on an adobe wall in the Indian quarter of Santiago Tlatelolco. The assumptio…
Like Herod's Massacre”: Quarantines, Bourbon Reform, and Popular Protest in Oaxaca's Smallpox Epidemic, 1796-1797
At the end of August 1796, Balthasar Ruiz, a weaver from Teotitlán del Valle, departed with his son to sell woven goods in the mountainous region to the south. Over 23 days, he traveled a distance of 45 miles as the crow flies and upon his return was jailed when the boy fell ill with smallpox. The two had made a typical journey in an atypical time: administrators throughout the intendancy of Oaxaca were actively pursuing a program of contagion av…
Outcome Among Community Dwelling Older Adults with Schizophrenia: Results Using Five Conceptual Models
Relationship between Neuroleptic Dose and Positive and Negative Symptoms
The present study explored possible connections between neuroleptic dose and the positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenic patients. Zero-order correlations between medication dose as measured in CPZ equivalent units and standardized assessments of positive (hallucinations, delusions) and negative (blunted affect, poor rapport) symptoms were carried out on 28 hospitalized schizophrenics. While dose was positively related to over-all negativ…
