Francisco Jerónimo de León
La trayectoria vital de Francisco Jerónimo de León estuvo marcada por su formación jurídica y su vocación de servicio a la corona. Desde estas coordenadas el letrado protagonizó un extenso 'cursus honorum' que culminó con su promoción a la Real Audiencia y al Consejo Supremo de Aragón. Como resultado de su experiencia en la judicatura de la más alta instancia compuso una vastísima obra de jurisprudencia doctrinal -Decisiones Sacrae Regiae Audientiae Valentinae-, publicada en tres volúmenes. La relevancia alcanzada por el magistrado no ha impedido que su biografía haya permanecido prácticamente inédita hasta el momento. En esta monografía se ofrece una caracterización de su personalidad desde un doble enfoque: el entorno personal, familiar y social del jurista es perfilado en la primera parte del trabajo, mientras la segunda se consagra al estudio de su carrera profesional.
La Florida
Commemorating Juan Ponce de León’s landfall on the Atlantic coast of Florida, this ambitious volume explores five centuries of Hispanic presence in the New World peninsula, reflecting on the breadth and depth of encounters between the different lands and cultures. The contributors, leading experts in a range of fields, begin with an examination of the first and second Spanish periods. This was a time when La Florida was an elusive possession that the Spaniards were never able to completely secure; but Spanish influence would nonetheless leave an indelible mark on the land. In the second half of this volume, the essays highlight the Hispanic cultural legacy, politics, and history of modern Florida, and expand on Florida’s role as a modern Trans-Atlantic cross roads. Melding history, literature, anthropology, music, culture, and sociology, La Florida is a unique presentation of the Hispanic roots that run deep in Florida’s past and present and will assuredly shape its future.

Account of the Martyrs in the Provinces of La Florida
Few English-speaking readers are familiar with the life or the writings of the sixteenth-century Franciscan chronicler Luis Jerónimo de Oré, particularly his neglected Relación, about the early Spanish presence in territories now part of the United States. His account of La Florida—an area that in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries included present-day Florida as well as territory north to Virginia and west into Kansas—reflects the desire of the Spanish Crown and various religious orders to explore and to establish a presence in the region. This edition of Luis Jerónimo de Oré’s work presents readers with a new introduction and an annotated translation that place the text in the broader context of international politics. The narrative develops our understanding of the early Spanish presence in the continental United States while documenting frontier life and the contacts with Native Americans in the South and along the Eastern Seaboard.
Relación de los mártires de la Florida del P. F. Luis Jerónimo de Oré (C.1619)
Relación de los mártires de La Florida del P. F. Luis Jerónimo de Oré (c. 1619) es publicada por primera vez en el Perú en una edición modernizada y anotada por Raquel Chang-Rodríguez, e ilustrada con imágenes y mapas. En ella se narra la experiencia misionera en Norte América del ayacuchano Luis Jerónimo de Oré (1554-1630), uno de los miembros más distinguidos de la primera generación de intelectuales hispano-criollos del virreinato del Perú pertenecientes a la orden franciscana. Desde una perspectiva a la vez global y personal el autor defiende el derecho de España a permanecer en esas tierras tanto como da cuenta de la importancia de la labor de los franciscanos. El documen...
Customised Books in Early Modern Europe and the Americas, 1400–1700
Customised Books in Early Modern Europe and the Americas, 1400‒1700 examines the form, function, and meaning of alterations made by users to the physical structure of their book, through insertion or interpolation, subtraction or deletion, adjustments in the ordering of folios or quires, amendments of image or text. Although our primary interest is in printed books and print series bound like books, we also consider selected manuscripts since meaningful alterations made to incunabula and early printed books often followed the patterns such changes took in late fourteenth- and fifteenth-century codices. Throughout Customised Books the emphasis falls on the hermeneutic functions of the modifications made by makers and users to their manuscripts and books. Contributors: B. Boler Hunter, T. Cummins, A.

Heaven, Hell, and Everything in Between
Examining the vivid, often apocalyptic church murals of Peru from the early colonial period through the nineteenth century, Heaven, Hell, and Everything in Between explores the sociopolitical situation represented by the artists who generated these murals for rural parishes. Arguing that the murals were embedded in complex networks of trade, commerce, and the exchange of ideas between the Andes and Europe, Ananda Cohen Suarez also considers the ways in which artists and viewers worked through difficult questions of envisioning sacredness. This study brings to light the fact that, unlike the murals of New Spain, the murals of the Andes possess few direct visual connections to a pre-Columbian ...
