Aztec Latin
Soon after the fall of the Aztec empire in 1521, missionaries began teaching Latin to native youths in Mexico. This initiative was intended to train indigenous students for positions of leadership, but it led some of them to produce significant writings of their own in Latin, and to translate a wide range of literature, including Aesop's fables, into their native language. Aztec Latin reveals the full extent to which the first Mexican authors mastered and made use of European learning and provides a timely reassessment of what those indigenous authors really achieved.

The Human Tradition in the Atlantic World, 1500–1850
This collection of compact biographies puts a human face on the sweeping historical processes that shaped contemporary societies throughout the Atlantic world. Focusing on life stories that represented movement across or around the Atlantic Ocean from 1500 to 1850, The Human Tradition in the Atlantic World, 1500–1850 explores transatlantic connections by following individuals—be they slaves, traders, or adventurers—whose experience took them far beyond their local communities to new and unfamiliar places. Whatever their reasons, tremendous creativity and dynamism resulted from contact between people of different cultures, classes, races, ideas, and systems in Africa, Europe, and the Americas. By emphasizing movement and circulation in its choice of life stories, this readable and engaging volume presents a broad cross-section of people—both famous and everyday—whose lives and livelihoods took them across the Atlantic and brought disparate cultures into contact.
An Irish Rebel in New Spain
An Irish Rebel in New Spain recounts the story of the so-called Irish Zorro, who, in 1659, was burned at the stake for conspiring against the empire to make himself king of Mexico, restore the privileges of the Indigenous people, end the persecution of the Jews, and free the African slaves. William Lamport was an Irish rebel, a soldier, a poet, and a thinker. His Catholic family lost their land and their religious freedom after the English conquest of Ireland. In 1640, Lamport emigrated to New Spain, where he witnessed the abuses of the colonial system and later ran afoul of the Mexican Inquisition. Imprisoned in 1642, Lamport argued his own defense as well as that of the Jews who were in pr...

Traditionen juristisch-notarieller Textproduktion durch Translation
Dieses Open Access-Buch bietet eine historisch ausgerichtete Untersuchung juristisch-notarieller Dokumente aus Neu-Spanien an der Schnittstelle zwischen romanistischer Textlinguistik und Translationswissenschaft. Konkret wird ein umfassendes Korpus aus Texten der indigenen Selbstverwaltung und Rechtsprechung analysiert, die in einer peripheren Region des kolonialen Mexiko zwischen dem 17. und 18. Jahrhundert in der indigenen Sprache Zapotekisch verfasst und zur Weitergabe an die spanisch-koloniale Gerichtsbarkeit ins Spanische übersetzt wurden. Grundlage der Analyse ist ein Modell, das textlinguistische und translationswissenschaftliche Ansätze integriert, darunter das Konzept der Diskurst...
La muerte de la ficción sentimental
La ficción sentimental, tradición iberorrománica donde lashaya —ya que produce, a lo largo de su trayectoria, obras en castellano, catalán y portugués— es un campo no demasiado mimado por la crítica, con excepción de su representante más emblemática, la Cárcel de amor de Diego de San Pedro (1492), auténtico best-seller internacional de su época. El género brinda amores infelices, bañados en ríos de lágrimas y sangre, a su público —fórmula exitosa durante un siglo entero, pero que parece entrar en decadencia a lo largo del siglo XVI—. Es esta fase tardía, agonía y muerte de la ficción sentimental, que no se ha estudiado todavía con el debido detalle, ni mucho menos desde una perspectiva amplia, pan-ibérica. A ello se dedica este libro, preguntándose por los mecanismos que se hacen efectivos en lo que se presenta como fin de una tradición literaria: ¿Qué significa realmente la muerte de un género? ¿Cómo y por qué desaparece la ficción sentimental?
