In The Protectors of Indians in the Royal Audience of Lima: History, Careers and Legal Culture, 1575-1775 Mauricio Novoa offers an account of the institution that developed in the vice-royalty of Peru for the protection of Indians before the high courts of justice. Making use of historical materials, Novoa provides a comprehensive view on the formation of the legal elite in Lima during the colonial period; reviews the litigation undertaken by indigenous plaintiffs, and explains the legal culture that allowed the development of juristic doctrine around the Indian personal status.

I saggi riuniti nel volume seguono, attraverso una lunga serie di approfondimenti monografici, molte svolte cruciali della storia del pensiero giuridico e politico europeo, sia nella prospettiva del diritto comune (civile e canonico) sia in quella dei diritti particolari dei singoli ordinamenti. All’analisi di aspetti più strettamente teorici si affiancano disamine di concrete e specifiche esperienze; si studiano inoltre vicende di libri e testi, come elementi di sollecitazione del dibattito culturale. The essays gathered in the volume, thanks to a long series of in-depth studies, have resulted in a closer look at many crucial milestones in the history of European legal and political philosophy, both from the perspective of the common ”ius commune” (civil and canon) and in particular rights of the individual jurisdictions. Analysis of strictly theoretical aspects are analyzed along with reviews on the subject of specific and concrete experiences; also stories from books and texts have been analyzed as elements of solicitation of cultural debate.
