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.

Royal octavo 9 1/2" x 7" bound in three quarter blue leather with raised spine bands and gilt lettering to spine. Introduction by Rafael Lopez. From the library of George Foster. Publicaciones del Archivo General de la Nacion volume XVII XVIII and XIX.<br /><br />There are only meager biographical data about Pablo de la Purísima Concepción Beaumont whose work is a major source on Michoacán. Despite its title "Chronicle of the Holy Apostles St Peter and St Paul of Michoacán" Beaumont's work in fact spans a much greater area including much of western Mexico northward to New Mexico and tending toward a general history. It provides details to 1565. Beaumont divided his total work into tow major parts the firs or Aparato intended to be introductory to the second or the Crónica proper. the first seems complete but the second was never finished. The Aparato takes up fully a third of the extant Beaumont work although nominally introductory. It deals with the discovery of America and the conquest of Mexico to the year 1521. It was twice published before appearance of the total work. Far more valuable is the Crónica. It consists of two books and one chapter of book 3. Beaumont drew on a wide variety of sources. He tell us us that he gathered a large quantity of manuscripts from various Franciscan archives as well as listing 30 standard writers in printed sources. He gives full copies of some of his documents of which several have since disappeared. He speaks of obtaining a native painting possibly from which his illustrations came. These paintings show incidents of the first visits of Spaniards to Michoacán there reception by Tarascans labors of the Franciscans coats of arms of principal cities of Michoacán. It is usually through that Beaumont composed his work around 1777. That is the last date in the later copies of the original manuscript. Unfortunately his original manuscript is lost. It was copied in Mexico City around 1792 to for volumes 7-11 of a 32 volume Collection of Memories on New Spain ordered by Viceroy Conde de Revilla Gigedo and compiled by Manuel de la Vega. Three partially complete sets of these Vega Memorias are known; from one or another of them come other recopied manuscript copies as well as the printed versions. Editions of the work have a somewhat unfortunate publishing history. In 1826 Bustamante published an incomplete and useless edition of the Aparato attributing it to Vega who had owned the manuscript Bustamante used. In 1873-74 a five volume edition of both Aparato and Crónica appeared in Mexico; it lacks the Indian drawings and was based on a secondary manuscript copy made b y J F Ramirez that then belonged to Alfredo Chavero. A three volume version was published by the National Archives of Mexico in 1932 based on their copy of the 1792 collection of Memorias; it contains the Indian drawings and an introduction by Rafael Lopez. The text seems slightly corrupt but it may be near the original as Beaumont said his Spanish was defective owing to his Parisian rearing.<br /><br />George McClelland Foster Jr born in Sioux Falls South Dakota on October 9 1913 died on May 18 2006 at his home in the hills above the campus of the University of California Berkeley where he served as a professor from 1953 to his retirement in 1979 when he became professor emeritus. His contributions to anthropological theory and practice still challenge us; in more than 300 publications his writings encompass a wide diversity of topics including acculturation long-term fieldwork peasant economies pottery making public health social structure symbolic systems technological change theories of illness and wellness humoral medicine in Latin America and worldview. The quantity quality and long-term value of his scholarly work led to his election to the National Academy of Sciences in 1976. Virtually all of his major publications have been reprinted and/or translated.

1967010800New York: Columbia University Press 1967. 421pp/illus. End-paper maps. "Combining the skills of an anthropologist and an economist Belshaw provides a remarkably sophisticated analysis of the workings of a peasant economic system in interaction with the larger national community. The findings have relevance for rural development outside of Mexico as well as within it and the research design itself may constitute an exceptionally useful model for economists working at this level of inquiry. The major part of the field work for this study was done in 1962 using questionnaires including a census of people land and animals an agricultural survey a social survey a questionnaire for storekeepers and another for garmentmakers focused on entrepreneurial activities and a sixth on miscellaneous occupations. The study is focused on land labor capital and entrepreneurship and includes data on the social structure and standards of living. DJ has a couple of small tears.
