Description
Essays in the Intellectual History of Colonial Latin America is a collection of eleven essays that have been adapted from Benjamin Keen's writings about Bartolomé de Las Casas and related topics in the intellectual history of colonial Latin America. It is an accessible introduction to colonial history and a critical guide to the literature in the field.In these essays, some of which have been updated and revised, Keen explores the literature and thought regarding Spain's influence on the New World. Some of his articles are themselves of historiographic significance because of their role in shaping current perceptions of colonial history, while others are distinguished for their bibliographic charting of recent debates on selected issues. Essays in the Intellectual History of Colonial Latin America will be a valuable resource for anyone interested in colonial Latin American history.
