Cómo lo hemos perdido, na­ die lo ignora —siquiera nó haya conformidad de pareceres en la apreciación de las princi­ pales causas y de ciertos pormenores 5 — lo que no todos saben, con la debida puntuali­ dad, es cómo fué conquistada la más fértil y extensa de aquellas islas, la de Luzón: por eso creemos que será leída con el mayor agra* do la Relación con que comienza'este tomo, escrita precisamente por uno de los que to­ maron parte en tan gloriosa jornada. Un cen­ tenar de hombres, inspirados en el mismo sentimiento, el supremo de ensanchar los X PRÓLOGO límites de la Patria, bastaron para realizar la memorable empresa; mientras que (ioh poder del cambio de los tiempos 1) algunos miles no han bastado ahora para conservar lo que por modo tan fácil había sido ganado para la Corona de Castilla há poco más de tres siglos. La Relación anónima á que hace­ mos referencia, es de las que no necesitan re­ comendaciones de ninguna clase: el caudal de noticias ignoradas ó poco conocidas que corre por sus párrafos es su mejor encomio; sólo nos permitimos llamar la atención de los lectores acerca de las líneas que tratan de las armas de fuego que usaban los indígenas. II ara la geografia histórica, y sobre todo para la historia de la propiedad territorial de Filipinas, ofrece gran­ dísimo interés la Relación de encomiendas que publicamos en segundo término. Es tam­ bién de utilidad para los biógrafos, pues que en ella se contienen numerosos nombres de conquistadores y pobladores, cuyos servi­ cios fueron recompensados con más ó menos equidad, pero no en vano. Finalmente, de la misma Relación pueden obtenerse datos cu- PRÓLOGO XI riosos relativos á la* proporcionalidad en que se hallaban habitadas las regiones más im­ portantes del Archipiélago. III l opúsculo Sucesos felices (que ocupa el tercer lugar), aparte su valor his­ tórico, como escrito á raíz de verifi­ cados los sucesos que refiere, tiene el encan­ to de ser una pieza rarísima de la imprenta filipina: esta doble razón nos ha movido á reimprimirlo, bien seguros de que lo verán con gusto, tanto los historiadores como los bibliógrafos. IV 3|tra pieza curiosa, y á título de tal queda aquí reproducida, es la Carta de Fr. García Racimo, franciscano. Y allá se las hayan los hombres de buenas tra­ gaderas con el milagro de la Virgen que «re­ cibía en sus manos las balas y las volvía á los enemigos». Bien nos hubiera venido esa pro­ tección ahora. Dicho sea- de paso, no la me­ recemos: i así ha degenerado ésta que fué XII PRÓLOGO heroica raza española! Una aclaración, dado que al pie de la portada he escrito que la que ahora se hace es la* primera reimpre­ sión. La Carta de Fr. García Racimo editóse nuevamente en 1683 (y he visto el ejemplar que posee mi distinguido amigo el Duque de T ’Serclaes); pero entre ésta y la dé 1671 exis­ ten variantes, y algunas de bulto, y por lo tanto he podido, en puridad, decir que la re­ impresión por mí hecha, ó sea la de 1898, es la primera reimpresión de la edición de 1671, que es la genuinamente original. V o n justicia está reputado preciadísimo ornamento de la Compañía de Jesús el P. Diego Luis de Sanvítores, pro- tomártir de las islas Marianas. En la relación que he fielmente reimpreso, no sólo son de apreciar las noticias que atañen personal­ mente al citado religioso, sino las que se re­ fieren al país y sus gentes, que, como todas las de raza malaya, se han distinguido y dis­ tinguen por la inconsistencia de los rasgos del carácter: á veces pacíficos, mansos como los más inofensivos corderos; otras fieros, sañudos, sanguinarios... Víctima de una de estas veleidades fué el insigne jesuíta Diego PRÓLOGO XIII Luis de Sanvítores. Su sangre, como la de todos los mártires de la Fe, ha dejado ese perfume que jamás se extingue, y del cual trasciende lá inmortalidad gloriosa. VI Ha que no hayamos tenido la suerte de dar con la Memoria del P. Nieto, nos felicitamos de haber dado con un Ex­ tracto de la misma, en la sección de Manus­ critos de la Biblioteca Nacional. En ese Ex­ tracto puede apreciar el lector cómo ese mo­ vimiento insurreccional fué, á la manera que los demás conocidos hasta el año de 1896, me­ ramente local y tuvo por fundamento una causa pequeñísima. Escrita la Memoria ape­ nas acaecidos los sucesos, su compendio, por breve que sea, no deja de tener valor his­ tórico. VII i s t a mucho la segunda serie de docu­ mentos de actualidad de valer lo que la primera. Me parece ocioso decir que no es mía la culpa: los amigos que desde Manila me facilitaban esos papeles, han ido poco á poco apagando su primitivo entusias- XIV PRÓLOGO mo... Casi todo lo que va en esta tanda se re­ fiere á Rizal, verbo que fué del separatismo filipino y el hombre más inteligente, más cul­ to, más tenaz y de más universales aptitudes que ha producido la raza tagala. Creo inge­ nuamente que fué un gran error político fu­ silarlo. Indultado Rizal, <qué hubiera podido acontecer? Todo lo más, que Filipinas se hu­ biera perdido para España. Pues bien; Filipi­ nas se ha perdido á pesar del fusilamiento de Rizal. Indultado Rizal, pudo y debió utilizarle PolavieJa para desarmar á los insurrectos de Cavite; á lo menos, para calmar la excitación de los ánimos en otras provincias, sobre todo en la de Manila. Se le fusiló, y el efecto fué contraproducente. Por lo demás, al rodear á Rizal con la aureola del mártir, se le ha con­ cedido lo que de otra manera no habría al­ canzado seguramente: la inmortalidad entre los filipinos. VIH puNQUE D. Manuel Clemente ha sido tan modesto que ha omitido su nom­ bre en la portada del relato histórico Ld Venganza de Fajardo, á mí me parece que es de justicia revelarlo al público, siquiera porque ese relato es el único, de los que han visto la luz acerca del mismo asunto, que se PRÓLOGO XV aJusta perfectamente á la verdad.

BIRGITTA OF SWEDEN A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF HUMANITIES IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY INSTITUTE OF HISTORY, CULTURE AND CIVILISATION CENTRE FOR MEDIEVAL STUDIES BY EMILIA ŻOCHOWSKA ODENSE FEBRUARY 2010 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS In my work, I had the privilege to be guided by three distinguished scholars: Professor Jacek Salij in Warsaw, and Professors Tore Nyberg and Kurt Villads Jensen in Odense. It is a pleasure to admit that this study would never been completed without the generous instruction and guidance of my masters. Professor Salij introduced me to the world of ancient and medieval theology and taught me the rules of scholarly work. Finally, he encouraged me to search for a new research environment where I could develop my skills. I found this environment in Odense, where Professor Nyberg kindly accepted me as his student and shared his vast knowledge with me. Studying with Professor Nyberg has been a great intellectual adventure and a pleasure. Moreover, I never would have been able to work at the University of Southern Denmark if not for my main supervisor, Kurt Villads Jensen, who trusted me and decided to give me the opportunity to study under his kind tutorial, for which I am exceedingly grateful. The trust and inspiration I received from him encouraged me to work and in fact made this study possible. Karen Fogh Rasmussen, the secretary of the Centre of Medieval Studies, had been the good spirit behind my work.

  • The Louisiana Purchase
    The Louisiana Purchase In 1803, the United States bought the Louisiana Territory from France, which was in dire straits following their revolution. On the Lewis and Clark site, there is this map of the Louisiana Purchase. As you can see, there was a great deal more of what is now the United States that was not settled. Look at Spanish Florida, New Spain, Oregon Country and British North America. The North West had been the habitat of fur traders, mostly from the British Isles, for many years. Meanwhile, in the South, there was the desire to expel the Spanish from Florida. As American expansionism moved the boundaries further west and south, the British pushed back. Greatness of the Port of New Orleans dates back to the Revolution when the Ohio River Valley was settled, and the settlers had no other way to market their produce then down the river to New Orleans – then a Spanish Port. First they came on rafts then flatboats, and, finally keelboats which could be poled back up the river. (Rafts and flatboats were broken up and the timber sold.) In the early years of this river traffic, tough American boatmen had many a argument with Spanish troops of New Orleans. Here we see Governor Milo halting once such argument. Miro hoped to persuade Tennessee and Kentucky to secede from the United States and join Spanish Louisiana. Instead, the valleyfolks brought such pressure on President Thomas Jefferson that the Louisiana Purchase resulted. An indication of the volume of this early trade between the Americans and the Spaniards at New Orleans is the American dollar.

  • Historical Origins of the One-Drop Racial Rule in the United States
    Historical Origins of the One-Drop Racial Rule in the United States Winthrop D. Jordan1 Edited by Paul Spickard2 Editor’s Note Winthrop Jordan was one of the most honored US historians of the second half of the twentieth century. His subjects were race, gender, sex, slavery, and religion, and he wrote almost exclusively about the early centuries of American history. One of his first published articles, “American Chiaroscuro: The Status and Definition of Mulattoes in the British Colonies” (1962), may be considered an intellectual forerunner of multiracial studies, as it described the high degree of social and sexual mixing that occurred in the early centuries between Africans and Europeans in what later became the United States, and hinted at the subtle racial positionings of mixed people in those years.3 Jordan’s first book, White over Black: American Attitudes Toward the Negro, 1550–1812, was published in 1968 at the height of the Civil Rights Movement era. The product of years of painstaking archival research, attentive to the nuances of the thousands of documents that are its sources, and written in sparkling prose, White over Black showed as no previous book had done the subtle psycho-social origins of the American racial caste system.4 It won the National Book Award, the Ralph Waldo Emerson Prize, the Bancroft Prize, the Parkman Prize, and other honors. It has never been out of print since, and it remains a staple of the graduate school curriculum for American historians and scholars of ethnic studies. In 2005, the eminent public intellectual Gerald Early, at the request of the African American magazine American Legacy, listed what he believed to be the ten most influential books on African American history.

  • The Art of Conversation: Eighteenth-Century Mexican Casta Painting
    Graduate Journal of Visual and Material Culture Issue 5 I 2012 The Art of Conversation: Eighteenth-Century Mexican Casta Painting Mey-Yen Moriuchi ______________________________________________ Abstract: Traditionally, casta paintings have been interpreted as an isolated colonial Mexican art form and examined within the social historical moment in which they emerged. Casta paintings visually represented the miscegenation of the Spanish, Indian and Black African populations that constituted the new world and embraced a diverse terminology to demarcate the land’s mixed races. Racial mixing challenged established social and racial categories, and casta paintings sought to stabilize issues of race, gender and social status that were present in colonial Mexico. Concurrently, halfway across the world, another country’s artists were striving to find the visual vocabulary to represent its families, socio-economic class and genealogical lineage. I am referring to England and its eighteenth-century conversation pictures. Like casta paintings, English conversation pieces articulate beliefs about social and familial propriety. It is through the family unit and the presence of a child that a genealogical statement is made and an effigy is preserved for subsequent generations. Utilizing both invention and mimesis, artists of both genres emphasize costume and accessories in order to cater to particular stereotypes. I read casta paintings as conversations like their European counterparts—both internal conversations among the figures within the frame, and external ones between the figures, the artist and the beholder. It is my position that both casta paintings and conversation pieces demonstrate a similar concern with the construction of a particular self-image in the midst of societies that were apprehensive about the varying conflicting notions of socio-familial and socio-racial categories.

  • Architecture of the Cabildo
    Architecture of the Cabildo The Cabildo in New Orleans is one of the most historically significant buildings in Louisiana. It was the seat of Spanish colonial government, the site of the Louisiana Purchase transfer ceremony, and home of the Louisiana Supreme Court. It is now part of the Louisiana State Museum. Learn more about the architectural features of this iconic building! Architecture The Cabildo was built 1794-1799 under Spanish rule. It was designed by Gilberto Guillemard in the classical style, which is modelled on the architecture of ancient Greece and Rome. This style was common for eighteenth-century Spanish government buildings and has been used throughout history to convey power and wealth. The wrought-iron balcony railings were created by Marcelino Hernandez, an immigrant from the Canary Islands. The Spanish coat of arms in the pediment was replaced with a patriotic sculpture of an American bald eagle in 1821, a few years after Louisiana became a state, sculpted by Italian artist Pietro Cardelli. In 1847, a third floor with a mansard roof and cupola replaced the original flat roof. This popular French roof style was added in part to match the planned scale of the Pontalba apartment buildings on Jackson Square, which were begun in 1849. These features form an impressive façade that reflect changing influences in New Orleans over time.
