1878BOOKS006180xxiv392 pages with indexes. Quarto 11 1/4" x 8 1/4" bound in brown cloth with brown label in gilt lettering to spine. Edited by Justo Zaragoza. First edition.<br /><br />Juan Súarez de Peralta was in an advantageous position to assemble information regarding the first contact between Indians and Spaniards in Mexico. Born in Mexico in 1537 he was the son of Juan Suarez whose sister Catalina had been the first wife of Hernando Cortes. His education hardly went beyond the basics of grammar but he developed his knowledge by reading and by personal contact with those who had participated in the Conquest. He lived in Mexico until 1579 when he traveled to Spain. He remained there at least until 1589 the year in which he completed the <i>Tratado del descubrimiento de las Indias</i>. He later returned to Mexico. The date and place of his death are unknown. The complete title of Suarez de Peralta's work give an adequate description of its contents: Tratado del descubrimiento de las Indias y su conquista y los ritos y sacrificios y costumbres de los Indios; y de los virreyes y gobernadores que las han gobernado especialmente en la Nueva Espana y del suceso del Marques del Valle Segundo Don Martin Cortes: del rebellion que se le impute y de las justicias y muertes que hizieron en Mexico los jueces comisarios que para ello fueron por su Majestad y del rompimiento de los ingleses y del principio que tuvo Francisco Kraque para ser declarado enemigo. It contains information on the history religion and customs of the Indians of central Mexico derived largely from Oviedo Motolina Sahagun and Las Casas. When Justo Zargoza 1833-1896 published the work for the first time 1878 he shortened the title to <i>Noticias Históricas de la Nueva España</i>. It was republished in Mexico in 1949 with an introduction by Federico Gomez de Orozco.

Lucius Apuleius was born about the year A.D. 114 at Madaura a city on the borders of Numidia and Gaetulia.

The story of "The Metamorphoses" tells how a young man is turned by magic into an ass. With the loss of his human form he loses his power of speech but retains his human intelligence. In the course of his adventures he falls into the hands of a band of robbers who also capture a beautiful maiden. When setting out to see further booty the robbers leave the maiden and the ass in the charge of a half-tipsy old woman. This old hag in order to divert the maiden's thoughts from the evils of her situation tells her the following story. 83pp. David Nutt unknown

First edition.<br /><br />The document reproduced in the following pages is a contemporary copy of the lost Laws of Burgos.

Its application here is that it contains the relatively complete plan for the reduction of the Indians to villages which is the subject of the second part of this paper. In the transcription here undertaken the spelling and punctuation have been modernized ad some errors of the copyist have been corrected. Where the text of the Preamble has been damaged at the foot of the first folio the lacunae have been supplied from the text as given by Las Casas. These and other interpolations have been set off in brackets.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />Edges chipped front wrapper beginning separate else a very good copy.
