Los Predicadores Novohispanos Del Siglo Xvi

Resumen del Libro

Excellent study of the Dominican Order in the 16th century. Avoids a chronological account giving the reader instead a methodical analysis of the institutional, social, and economic organization of the order. To the prototypes of the urban and the rural convents, Pita Moreda adds a balanced assessment of the missionary activities –Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
