Chapter 2 A Synopsis of the Conquest of Mexico
Appendix Signatories of the 1520 Segura de la Frontera Letter
The First Letter from New Spain: The Lost Petition of Cortés and His Company, June 20, 1519
The founding of la Villa Rica de la Veracruz (the rich town of the True Cross) is prominently mentioned in histories of the conquest of Mexico, but scant primary documentation of the provocative act exists. During a research session at the Spanish archives, when John Schwaller discovered an early-sixteenth-century letter from Veracruz signed by the members of Cortés's company, he knew he had found a trove of historical details. Providing an acces…

Desperate Men, Questionable Acts: The Moral Dilemma of Italian Merchants in the Spanish Slave Trade
Modern research into the Italian business community in Renaissance Spain is driven by the desire to strengthen and publicize the Italian genesis of Spain's enterprise of the Americas. Scholarship resulting from this motive understandably focuses on positive facets of the Columbian discovery. The Italians are painted not only as financially more astute but also morally superior to their Spanish associates; their involvement in the enslavement of A…
Love, Religion and Politics in Fifteenth Century Spain
Ian Macpherson and Angus MacKay bring together versions in English of sixteen articles published in journals and festschrift volumes over the past two decades. The articles are revised and selected from those which deal with questions of love, religion and politics in the fifteenth-century Kingdom of Spain. Ian Macpherson is a linguist and literary critic who aims to set his judgements in a historical and social context, and Angus MacKay a histor…

Theorien kommunaler Ordnung in Europa

So entsteht ein Grundriß der Theorien politischer Ordnung von der Antike bis in die Moderne.

The End of the Old World
We are now, in 1992, searching to find the meaning of an event 500 years distant in time. For us as Americans the importance of the Columbian voyages is obvious. In the past ten years the great wealth of research, publication, and debate on ancient American cultures has made the impact on the Americas abundantly clear.For Europe the impact is much less clear. We say that the old world ended almost immediately, that a new world came into being whe…
Liberty in Absolutist Spain: The Habsburg Sale of Towns, 1516-1700
Throughout early modern Europe, one of the most extraordinary royal fund-raising schemes was the seizure and sale of church property to finance foreign wars. The monarchs of Habsburg Spain extended these seizures to municipal property and used the revenue to maintain their empire. They sold charters of autonomy to hundreds of villages, thus converting them into towns, and sold towns to private buyers, thus increasing the number of seigniorial lor…

The Greek Commander' Hernán Núñez de Toledo, Spanish Humanist and Civic Leader
One of the principal differences separating the Italian Renaissance from the Spanish has been the civic character of the Italian humanists’ professional lives. Intense involvement in urban politics, crucial to the development of rhetoric and historical perspective in the works of Coluccio Salutati, Leonardo Bruni, Niccolò Machiavelli, and Francesco Guicciardini, has seemed to be missing in the careers of Spanish humanists. The careers of Spain's …
