Burgoa Francisco de 1605 1681
Geográfica descripción de la parte Septentrional del polo ártico de la América y nueva iglesia de las indias occidentales y sitios astronómicos de esta provincia de predicadores de Antequera Valle de Oaxac
Description:<br />2 volumes: 427 pages with facsimile title and index; 513 pages with two facsimile pages appendix and index. Royal octavo 9 1/2" x 7" bound in three quarter blue leather with raised spine bands and gilt lettering to spine. From the library of George M Foster. Second edition.<br /><br />The two chronicles by Francisco de Burgoa easily hold first place for inflated style and bombastic phraseology especially the opening remarks to various chapters. Yet for the important area of Oaxaca and the numerous subjects he treats Burgoa's works are indispensable and irreplaceable sources. Burgoa born in Oaxaca was related to numerous local colonial families. He took his final vows in 1625 and by 1649 was provincial of his Order. In that post he made a special effort to visit various parts of Oaxaca especially seeking notices of Zapotecan antiquities with the aim of writing a history of Oaxaca. Before his death in 1681he did not complete it but left two prolix yet valuable published treatises. The two chronicles are the usually abbreviated Palestra historial and Geográfica descripción. Burgoa conceived of them as a single work but they differ in contents. The Palestra historial is a typical chronicle. It begins with the arrival in 1526 of Dominicans in Mexico City and shortly thereafter their appearance in Oaxaca. Burgoa rehearses the lives of many missionaries already biographized by Davila Padilla but Burgoa emphasizes their apostolate in the Oaxaca areas even before formal establishment of the Province of San Hipolito 1592. These lives are uniformly eulogistic but scattered through them are important bits of information on the numerous Indian groups of Oaxaca. The Geográfica descripción has 80 chapters. They detail the histories of the Monasteries and the work of their friars among the Indians with much less attention to biographical detail than in the Palestra historial. The data run to about mid-17th century in both. Handbook of Middle American Indians<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. Provenance from the executor of Foster's library laid in.<br /><br />Condition:<br />Some occasional pencil marginalia by Foster. Foster's date of acquired on front paste down of volume one. Some rubbing to extremities else a very good set. Archivo General de la Nacion hardcover books

Mails from NYC usually within 12 hours. ; 7.6 x 5 x 0.5 inches; 155 pages; nFrom Publishers Weekly Maria her brother and sister arrive in the U. S. From El Salvador jammed inside a nailed crate. Having left their mother and baby sister in Mexico they are ready to take up the twilight existence of the illegal alien in Chicago. Maria and her siblings not only face extradition if caught but nearly certain death if returned to their homeland. Sister Julia is pregnant and it falls to Maria to learn English look for work and find food for her family. In retelling the plight of Central American refugees Buss with the assistance of Cubias a poet and activist from El Salvador delicately avoids the obvious and didactic pitfalls in describing this all-too-common problem. By not dwelling on the brutality of the Guardias in El Salvador who killed Maria's father and Julia's husband and the numbing details of poverty she makes this a surprisingly entertaining and hopeful story.

Estudio del aparato de fuentes del Cincilio Tercero Proincial Mexicano 1585
348 pages including index. Royal octavo 9 1/4" x 6 1/4" bound in original publishes pictorial wrappers. First edition limited to 1000 copies. It can be argued that the Third Mexican Provincial Council of 1585 was one of the most important religious events in the history of Mexico. Summoned by Pedro Moya de Contreras the all-powerful archbishop visitador and later viceroy it was one of many such councils held in Spain and its dominions in the aftermath of the Council of Trent. It not only enacted a comprehensive code of canon law for New Spain but also commissioned important works such as a uniform catechism and ceremonial. One of the most important of these was the directory for confessors a lengthy summary of moral theology canon law and pastoral practice designed to compensate for the poor education of the clergy. It is an invaluable source for the social economic and religious life of sixteenth-century New Spain. Condition: Slight bumps on front edge and top of spine else very good to fine.

By Gregory the Great translated from the Latin into Italian by Zanobi da Strada
Moralia in Job Morali di Santo Gregorio papa sopra il libro di Job libri I-X; illuminated manuscript on paper
<p>MEDIEVAL ILLUMINATED MANUSCRIPT IN ITALIAN ON PAPER Northeastern Italy Veneto Venice c. 1474. Dimensions 328-332 x 230 mm. 188 folios missing at least three leaves written in brown ink in an Italian cursiva libraria script EIGHT ILLUMINATED INITIALS of seven lines one-line paraphs in red or blue<i> </i>simple two- to four-line in red or blue initials. BINDING: re-cased using original binding materials of brown half leather over bevelled wooden boards with three double bands remains of four straps present. TEXT: Italian translation of Gregory the Great's <i>Moralia in Job</i> one of the most important and widely copied texts of the Middle Ages. Though forty copies of this translation survive this volume is unusual in its incorporation of Venetian dialectal forms. All other copies are in European institutions and have not been on the market for the last century. PROVENANCE: scribal colophon on f. 190v provides a date for this manuscript's completion and helps localize its production within Italy: "Scripto per mi zuane de zane zoielier condam per simon et chi li lezeranno priegi dio per lo scriptore. MCCCCLXXIIII" Written by me Zuane de Zane jeweler once for Simon and may whoever will read it pray to God for the writer. 1474. There is no Zuane de Zane on record elsewhere as a scribe; the name itself is Venetian and evidence of the manuscript's watermark and decoration also suggest an origin in the region of Veneto and possibly Venice specifically. The manuscript was later acquired by a private European collection. CONDITION: slight tears in the lower margin of f. 25 and upper margin of ff. 37 and 160 from f. 161 to the end there is a slight loss to the upper outer corner<i> </i>slight water staining visible parchment reinforcement present prickings visible. Full description and images available. TM 796</p> Northeastern Italy, Veneto (Venice?), dated 1474

OCLC No. 11689841 locates only two copies of this imprint at institutions worldwide - one at Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania and one at the State University of New York at Buffalo. ~KM5~ 1.0P An early American edition of the popular 1785 John Payne translation of the Imitation of Christ Copinger 'On the English Translations of the Imitatio Christi' 1900 pp. 84-87. In the first paragraph of his lengthy preface Payne explains that he hoped in this translation to do 'some justice to the sense of the Original; which is almost lost in the loose paraphrase of Dean Stanhope' referring to Anglican George Stanhope's often reprinted 1698 English translation. However Payne's translation uses the King James Version wording for scriptural quotations within the work rather than the Vulgate edition of the Bible available to a Kempis in the fifteenth century. And Payne has edited out much from the original which he found overly 'monkish' or 'popish' including all of Book 4 dealing with the Roman Catholic Mass. The Imitation was written by Catholic monk Thomas Kempis circa 1380-1471 as four separate books completed between 1420 and 1427 at Mount Saint Agnes monastery in the town of Windesheim located in what is now the Netherlands. .
