1987H0200245 pages. Thick octavo 9" x 6 3/4" bound in publisher's original wrappers. Colleccion "Estudios Michoacanos" number VIII. First published in 1870. Bishop Clemente de Jesús Munguía 1810-1868 one of the most influential yet least-known ecclesiastical intellectuals of the period. A lawyer by profession Clemente Munguía was first professor and then rector of the Morelia diocesan seminary where he undertook a major reform of the school's curriculum and also composed several textbooks on a variety of subjects including grammar literature rhetoric philosophy theology and law. Appointed Bishop of Michoacán in October 1850 Munguía distinguished himself for his staunch opposition to the state's encroachment on the Church as well as for his insistence on the need for religious intolerance in what he imagined as an "exclusively Catholic" nation. His protests against the 1857 Constitution and the liberal legislation enacted by President Ignacio Comonfort were a key factor in the outbreak of the Civil War of the Reform 1858-1860 and the subsequent French intervention 1862-1867 which resulted in the separation of Church and state and the collapse of Mexican conservatism. Far from the stereotype of a backward and parochial intellectual Munguía was a sophisticated scholar who sought to reconcile Catholicism with the larger currents of thought of the Atlantic Republic of letters. Indeed he believed that the liberal revolution should be countered "with its own weapons" a conviction which first led him to frame the defense of ecclesiastical prerogatives in the language of modern natural law and then to claim for the Church the very power of constitutional interpretation. Although Munguía's ideal of a "Catholic republic" became unfeasible after the liberals' final victory in 1867 his efforts at consolidating ecclesiastical independence paved the way for both the Romanization and the social activism that characterized the Mexican Church during the latter half of the nineteenth century.

1998A0149xliv202; ii30xlv-lxx pages with 1 plate and index. Royal octavo 9" x 6 1/2" bound in original publisher's beige cloth with brown lettering to font cover in original jacket. Prologue by Salvador Galvan Infante. Introduction by Ricardo Leon Alanis. Facsimile of the 1766 edition. Limited to 2000 copies.<br /><br />Vasco de Quiroga born between 1470-78 - died March 14 1565 was the first bishop of Michoacan Mexico and one of the judges oidores in the second Audiencia that governed New Spain from January 10 1531 to April 16 1535. Coming from a background as a lawyer and a judge he was appointed to be a judge in the second Audiencia after the first Audiencias failure. As an oidor he took a strong interest in restoring order to the Michoacan area which had been ravaged by rebellions and unrest. He employed a strategy of congregating indigenous populations into congregated Hospital-towns called Republicas de Indios organized after principles derived from Thomas More's Utopia. The purpose of this policy was to make the dispersed indigenous populations easier to control and instruct in Christian values and lifestyles. He established two such hospitals: Santa Fe de Mexico close to the town of Tacuba in the Valley of Mexico and Santa Fe de la Laguna close to Patzcuaro Michoacan. Because of his reputation as a protector of the Indians Vasco de Quiroga is venerated as a saint in some communities in Michoacan to this day.<br /><br /><b>Condition:</b><br /><br />A near fine copy in like jacket.
