Humanities
Beginning with volume 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field. Compiled by the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress and annotated by a corps of more than 130 specialists in various disciplines, the Handbook alternates from year to year between social sciences and humanities. The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and research under way in specialized areas. The Handbook of Latin American Studies is the oldest continuing reference work in the field. Lawrence Boudon became the editor in 2000. The subject categories for Volume 58 are as follows: Electronic Resources for the Humanities Art History (including ethnohistory) Literature (including translations from the Spanish and Portuguese) Philosophy: Latin American Thought Music
The Pageant of Ibero-American Civilization
The Pageant of Ibero-American Civilization is an introduction to the cultural history of the hybrid civilization that developed in those areas of the Americas that were conquered and settled by Europeans from the Iberian peninsula, under the Crown of Portugal and the Crown of Castile, five hundred years ago. Tarrago emphasizes the ideas and some of the individuals influential in the formation of that civilization. This book stands out in comparison to others of its kind because it chronicles events in Ibero-America taking into account the standards at the time that they took place and their relation to contemporary happenings in other areas of the world. Most importantly, this book does justice to the past of the region without justifying it, and it avoids subjecting its complex and undisciplined reality to a single "big idea." Written with an English speaking readership in mind, it includes a select thematic bibliography of titles in English.
Early U.S.-Hispanic Relations, 1776-1860
Tarrago goes back to 1776, when the thirteen rebel English colonies in North America sought the help of the Spanish Crown. A selective bibliography, including many printed primary sources, as well as monographs and journal articles.

Filosofía del derecho en Cuba
"Filosofía del Derecho en Cuba. Contribuciones para su historia, es una obra coral que propone una suerte de mural compuesto para apreciar el planteamiento y evolución del pensamiento iusfilosófico cubano en las diferentes etapas históricas de nuestra nación. Como pieza armada por la contribución de varios autores, hay diversidad en su contenido y enfoques, también en sus alcances; combinándose, en este resultado, el oficio de quienes han venido trabajando, con mayor dedicación y particularidad, el área iusfilosófica y el de otros que resultan, propiamente, estudiosos de la Historia del Derecho. Y, quizás, no podría de ser de otro modo, en tanto, por el prisma al que responde el...
