The religious texts in Aztec and Maya Apocalypses, many translated for the first time, provide an intriguing picture of this process—revealing the influence of European, Aztec, and Maya worldviews on portrayals of Doomsday by Spanish priests and Indigenous authors alike.
Implementing the Catholic Reformation in New Spain
Edited and translated by Stafford Poole
Contributions by John F. Schwaller
Rendered in clear prose and illuminated with helpful introductory chapters by Poole and John F. Schwaller, extensive annotations, and a glossary of terms, this volume offers unparalleled insights into life and thought in sixteenth-century New Spain.
The Christians and the Roman Empire overturns the myth of an unrelenting persecution of the subversive, Christian “outlaw.” Using contemporary sources and authentic documents —including imperial edicts and records of the deeds of non-legendary martyrs—Marta Sordi shows that the conflict was primarily religious and almost never political.
