A Historical Archaeology of Early Spanish Colonial Urbanism in Central America
In this milestone work, William Fowler uses archaeology, history, and social theory to show that the establishment of cities was essential to Spanish colonialism. Fowler draws upon decades of archaeological research on the landscape, built environment, and architecture of Ciudad Vieja, a sixteenth-century site located in present-day El Salvador and the best-preserved Spanish colonial city in Latin America. Fowler compares Ciudad Vieja to other urban sites in the region and to the tradition of urbanism in early modern Spain to determine how the Spanish grid-plan layout was modified and implemented in the Americas. Using extensive archival material, Fowler describes how this layout reflected a...

The Routledge Handbook of Mesoamerican Bioarchaeology
This volume brings together a range of contributors with different and hybrid academic backgrounds to explore, through bioarchaeology, the past human experience in the territories that span Mesoamerica. This handbook provides systematic bioarchaeological coverage of skeletal research in the ancient Mesoamericas. It offers an integrated collection of engrained, bioculturally embedded explorations of relevant and timely topics, such as population shifts, lifestyles, body concepts, beauty, gender, health, foodways, social inequality, and violence. The additional treatment of new methodologies, local cultural settings, and theoretic frames rounds out the scope of this handbook. The selection of 36 chapter contributions invites readers to engage with the human condition in ancient and not-so-ancient Mesoamerica and beyond. The Routledge Handbook of Mesoamerican Bioarchaeology is addressed to an audience of Mesoamericanists, students, and researchers in bioarchaeology and related fields. It serves as a comprehensive reference for courses on Mesoamerica, bioarchaeology, and Native American studies.
A la luz de Roma. Santos y santidad en el barroco iberoamericano. Volumen I. La capital pontificia en la construcción de la santidad
La creazione di nuovi santi e di nuove sante nei territori della Spagna, del Portogallo e dell’America iberica all’indomani dei decreti del Concilio di Trento contribuisce alla configurazione di un’arte nuova. Il processo ha inizio a Roma, sotto l’egida della Sacra Congregazione dei Riti e delle chiese locali, che negoziarono la creazione di questo nuovo immaginario. Questo primo volume si focalizza per tale ragione su Roma, sul funzionamento dell’organismo deputato alla valutazione delle nuove figure di cui si chiedeva la canonizzazione. I processi di beatificazione e di canonizzazione hanno un ruolo fondamentale nella configurazione di questo universo agiografico: essi rappresentano l’intervento della Chiesa di Roma ma testimoniano anche il processo di mediazione con le chiese locali, che ebbero parte attiva nella creazione della nuova santità. L’esito dei processi di canonizzazione fu celebrato attraverso cerimonie alle quali parteciparono la Chiesa di Roma e le chiese locali, con un apparato festivo e artistico che oggi possiamo studiare sia attraverso i testi, sia attraverso le stampe.
