Latin American Literature in Transition Pre-1492–1800
The year 1492 invokes many instances of transition in a variety of ways that intersected, overlapped, and shaped the emergence of Latin America. For the diverse Native inhabitants of the Americas as well as the people of Europe, Africa, and Asia who crossed the Atlantic and Pacific as part of the early-modern global movements, their lived experiences were defined by transitions. The Iberian territories from approximately 1492-1800 extended from w…
Latin American Literature in Transition Pre-1492-1800
Indigenous Life after the Conquest
Caterina Pizzigoni and Camilla Townsend's translation of a set of Nahuatl-language documents represents the 16th volume in Latin American Originals, a series edited by Matthew Restall that presents translations of primary source texts with specialist scholarly apparatus.

Verdades y mentiras en torno a don Diego de Mendoza Austria Moctezuma
Don Diego de Mendoza Austria Moctezuma, the sixteenth-century cacique and indigenous governor of Tlatelolco, carried two of the most recognizable names of the colonial period.

María Castañeda de la Paz's extraordinary study unravels all…

As Barbara Mundy reminds us in The Death of Aztec Tenochtitlan, the Life of Mexico City, Balbuena describes Mexico City as rising phoenixlike from the flames of a presumably destroyed Tenochtitlan. Dense with research and insight, Mundy's study expertly counters the trope of the destruction of T…
