  • Land-Surveying Politics and the Archive of Mendozaʼs America
    +HDOLQJ3RZHU /DQG6XUYH\LQJ3ROLWLFVDQGWKH$UFKLYHRI 0HQGR]D·V$PHULFD Nino Vallen )UHLH8QLYHUVLWlW%HUOLQ$OHPDQLD Resumen: Durante las últimas dos décadas, el archivo colonial se ha percibido principal- mente como un medio que servía a la administración imperial para controlar sus territorios y someter a sus habitantes. Este ensayo trata de cuestionar esta comprensión de la relación entre el conocimiento y la experiencia práctica en la elaboración de la política colonial. Centrándonos en la participación del primer virrey de la Nueva España, don Antonio de Mendoza, en la agrimensura, se analiza cómo sus ideales y aspiraciones políticas influyeron el desarrollo del archivo colonial y virreinal y cómo estas, a lo largo del tiempo, causaron un conflicto entre él, el monarca y sus consejeros. Palabras clave: Archivo, agrimensura, conocimiento, experiencia, nobleza, administración imperial, Nueva España, siglo xvi. Abstract: During the last two decades, the colonial archive has been perceived as a means for the imperial administration to control its overseas territories and to subjugate its inhabi- tants. This essay questions such an understanding of the relationship between knowledge and practical experience in the making of colonial policy. Focusing on the surveying activities of New Spain’s first viceroy, Don Antonio de Mendoza, an analysis is made of how his political ideals and aspirations influenced the development of the colonial and viceregal archive, and how these, eventually, would lead to a conflict between him, the monarch, and his advisers. Keywords: Archive, surveying, knowledge, experience, nobility, imperial administration, New Spain, 16th century. Introduction In 1550, the viceroy of New Spain – Don Antonio de Mendoza – criticized the Crown’s inability to manage its American affairs.

  • The Early Life of Luis De Velasco, the Younger: the Future Viceroy As Boy and Young Man
    THE EARLY LIFE OF LUIS DE VELASCO, THE YOUNGER: THE FUTURE VICEROY AS BOY AND YOUNG MAN John F. SCHWALLER University of Minnesota, Morris [email protected] The story of Luis de Velasco, the younger, as narrated in most sec- ondary sources is a gripping one. The story goes that he came out to New Spain in 1549, at about age ten, in the company of his fa- ther, the viceroy Luis de Velasco. His mother and older brother re- mained in Spain, although she came to Mexico for a period of a few years before the death of her husband, returning to Spain, where she eventually died. The young Velasco, also purportedly appears in a painting of the manifestation of the Virgen of Gua- dalupe’s miraculous image to the archbishop of Mexico, and the viceroy.1 Unfortunately, however romantic and exciting these ver- sions are, they lack a sound basis in the documentation. The early life of Luis de Velasco was indeed exciting, but for reasons far dif- ferent from those contained in the traditional accounts. According to the best evidence available, Luis de Velasco, the younger, was born in his family’s home in Carrión de los Condes, Palencia, in Spain. Carrión has a fame from Spanish literature. In the poem of the Cid, Carrión is famous for being the hometown of the infantes who came to woo the daughters of Rui Díaz de Vivar. They married his daughters, then mistreated them badly. The Cid heard of this abominable behavior, rode to Carrión and slew them.2 Carrión was also the home to Velasco’s grandfather, the first Mar- quis of Santillana, Íñigo López de Mendoza.

Since George Parker Winship's monumental work appeared in 1896 little additional information has come to light concerning either the man or his great entrada into the Southwest.1 Coronado's final.report of his expedi­ tion, his own diary, or diaries of those who accompanied him, perhaps even the day by day account of an official diarist will be unearthed in the Archivo General de Indias at Seville , at some future date. Until that happy time we shall have to be contentwith the contemporary letters and the narrative of the veteran Pedro de Castaneda, written many years after the event, made available in Winship, the sixteenth century chronicle of Baltasar de Obregon,2 and the sworn testimony of Coronado in the viceroy Mendoza's visita, here repro~ duced.

Al igual que en otras de nuestras revisiones de libros de Figueroa, apenas intervenimos en la puntuación del original, incluso en el uso de mayúscula inicial (Galeón, Caimán, etc.), y sólo alteramos lo que podría confundir al lector. De esta obra existen ejemplares que no van dirigidos al todopoderoso duque de Lerma (1553-1623), sino al quinto marqués de Cañete. Por las apariencias se trataría de una segunda edición de 1616, pero un examen detenido evidencia que el único cambio se encuentra en la portada, cuyo diseño4 cambia totalmente, y reza: HECHOS / DE DON GARCIA / HVRTADO DE MENDOÇA, / Marques de Cañete. / A DON IUAN ANDRES / Hurtado de Mendoça / su hijo, Marques de Cañete, / Señor de las villas de Argete / y su partido, Montero mayor / del Rey ntro Señor, Guarda / mayor de la Ciudad de Cuenca, ettª.

Viceroyalty of New Spain. c. 1541–1542 C.E. Pigment on paper. Bodleian Library at Oxford University. Around 1541 C.E., the first viceroy of New Spain, Antonio de Mendoza, commissioned a codex to record information about the Aztec empire. The codex, now known as the Codex Mendoza, contained information about the lords of Tenochtitlan, the tribute paid to the Aztecs, and an account of life “from year to year.” The artist or artists were indigenous, and the images were often annotated in Spanish by a priest that spoke Nahuatl, the language spoken by the Nahuas (the ethnic group to whom the Aztecs belonged). Viceroy Mendoza intended to send the Codex to the Spanish King, Emperor Charles V of Spain, although it never made it to Spain; French pirates acquired the Codex and it ended up in France.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Fabricating History: The Codex Mendoza and Manuscript Production during the Founding of New Spain A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in Art History by Carlos Anílber Rivas 2013 © Copyright by Carlos Anílber Rivas 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Fabricating History: The Codex Mendoza and Manuscript Production during the Founding of New Spain by Carlos Anílber Rivas Master of Arts in Art History University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Charlene Villaseñor Black, Chair This thesis examines the historiography of the Codex Mendoza, one of the earliest surviving and most important manuscripts produced in Mexico after the conquest. In particular, I examine its provenance and evaluate its known documented history. How did this manuscript, produced in 1540 in Mexico by native artists and scribes, reach Europe and when? This reexamination highlights the absence of documentation supporting the widely-held belief that the Codex Mendoza reached France and not Spain, its intended destination, after the ship carrying it to Europe was plundered by pirates. After closely examining what is known of the manuscript’s provenance and suggesting a complete rethinking of what we know about the Codex Mendoza, ii this thesis demonstrates the interpretive side-effects of current assumptions about the manuscript’s provenance and dependance on out of date historiography. The Codex Mendoza’s assumed patronage and believed-intended audience has conditioned art historians to interpret the artistic style of the manuscript as containing European influence. However, a close re- examination of the codex in relation to other manuscripts produced in New Spain at the same time demonstrates that the Codex Mendoza’s content and visual style is effectively all from the pre-conquest period and therefore radically different from most manuscripts produced at the time.
