1963CA0121xi446 pages with plates maps and index. Royal octavo 9 1/4" x 6 3/4" bound in original wrappers. Introduction by Jose Bravo Ugarte. Preface by Martin del Castillo. Third edition limited to 2100 copies.<br /><br />Born in Spain Diego Basalenque spent much of his life in Michoacán; he died in Charo Michoacán in 1651. He states in his introduction he personally knew most of the persons about whom he writes. His purpose in composing their biographies was to inspire emulation. He obviously drew heavily on Grijalva especially for earlier periods of his own Historia which gives the history of the province to 1644. He pays particular attention to Augustinian work among Indians. Basalenque divided his Historia de la Provincia de San Nicolás de Tolentino de Michoacán into three books titles of which indicate their contents. Book one reports on the state of the Province of San Nicolás de Tolentino de Michoacán when it was still part of the Province of Mexico 1553-1601. The second book covers the period after division into two provinces 1602 until about 1628. Book three deals with years 1629--44 when the "alternative" between Spanish and Mexican Augustinians was permitted alternation in the position of superiors of the Order and the religious garb of novices. Basalenque's Historia has seen three editons 1673 1886 1963. The 1886 version three small volumes has a table of contents at the end of volumes 1 and 3. Santiago Vela provides a good critical study of Basalenque's writings. Jose Bravo Ugarte gives biobibliographical data and a few notes in the 1963 editon.

1938Ca0135342 pages with frontispiece illustrations map bibliography and index. Royal octavo 9 1/2" x 6 1/2" bound in original publisher's blue cloth with gilt lettering to spine and gilt to head end pages. First edition.<br /><br />The colonization of the American Atlantic seaboard and of the southwest were practically contemporaneous and the courage faith and endurance displayed by the English in conquering the wilderness of New England were not greater nor more steadfast than those shown by the Spanish in facing and overcoming the hazards of the inhospitable southwest. The authors have chose from the wealth of material available only such of the old Spanish legends as were most worth to survive as a part of the national literature. Several of the stories appear to be historically verifiable. Others doubtless are more or less fanciful although probably even the supposedly fictional one have a substantial foundation of fact. In such of the legends as were susceptible to presentation according to short-story technique the authors added appropriate details dialogue and setting; however they did not alter the story itself. this necessitated them preserving any prejudice or error found in a legend. Explanatory matter preceding or following the body of a legend is a part thereof except where it bears the authors' initials. They believed that the character of a people would be more clearly reflected in its legendary lore than in the recital of its political history.<br /><br /><b>Condition:</b><br /><br />Book plate to front paste down former owner's name to paste downs and front end paper corners bumped some rubbing to extremities else about a very good copy.

1968BOOKS006512105 pages. Royal octavo 9 1/4" x 6 3/4" bound in original wrappers. First edition limited to 1000 copies of which this is number 749.<br /><br />This work continues the work of two previous works and has served to make some adjustments on the geographical distribution and organization of religious orders in the sixteenth century. In it an attempt to study the ecclesiastical division of New Spain and the difficulties encountered by the religious to the large indigenous population is made; also thoughts to substantiate the relationship between the Western world and the Indian. The province of Chalco played a very important role because of its geographical position. To understand it not as an essential determinant but as an element that allows a geographic and human joint affecting indigenous occupations this must be taken into account.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />Front corner creased some light soiling to cover edge wear else a very good copy.
