B. de las VAULT Casas. Ayer 1559. MS 1057 391 leaves, bound ; 30 cm. A copy, in secretarial hand, of the second of the three books comprising Las Casas’ monumental chronicle of the discovery, exploration, and colonization of America, describing events which took place between 1501 and 1510. Las Casas begins with the settlement of the island of Hispaniola, under the governor Bobadilla, and later, under fray Nicolás de Ovando, comendador de Lares, and discusses the conquest of other islands as well, such as Cuba and Puerto Rico. He documents the Spaniards’ vicious treatment and cruel massacres of the Indians, and attacks the system of repartimiento which forced the Indians to work as slaves in the mines and plantations. He also describes how the Spaniards, when faced with a dwindling Indian population on Hispaniola, brought in additional slaves from the Lucayo Islands. A substantial part of the second book deals with Christopher Columbus, and includes an account of his fourth voyage, as well as material on his mistreatment at the hands of officials in the Indies; his repeated requests to the Spanish Crown for compensation for his services; and finally, his death in 1506. The ms. contains a preface, dated November 1559 and signed by Las Casas, in which he requests that the rector of the Colegio de San Gregorio not allow the Historia to be read for 40 years, after which time it should be published for the good of the Indians and of Spain.

Legal memorandum on moral and legal questions, such as justifiable motives for the conquest, civil rights, due process, judicial and executive powers, and church and state relations. The author discusses 27 fundamental question of law, analyzing the legal arguments and the application of the laws behind those issues. He begins by questioning Spain’s authority in the New World and her right to seize Indian lands, and then proceeds to find legal authority for the conquest. He also provides legal arguments in answer to questions concerning the right of both secular and non-secular clergy to "doctrinas," or ownership of Indian villages; the powers, jurisdiction, and precedence of ecclesiastical judges; and the procedures for dealing with abuses of those powers. Other issues for which he provides legal defense deal with personal and civil liberties of the Indians, and the legality of the encomienda and repartimiento, or the forced labor of the Indians in the fields and mines. There are sections on the legal justification for, and exemption from, taxation; the legal establishment of the duties and powers of the viceroy, and his relationship to the Audiencia; and legal controls on the behavior of judges. Finally, the author discusses legal questions involving the administration of the Real Hacienda (royal treasury), the regulation of taxes, prices, monetary value and currency; and public accountability of judges and officials.

MS Unsigned, undated draft, possibly written between 1810-1813 during the 2169 existence of the Cortes de Cádiz, of two arguments in favor of abolishing the mita in Peru, the only place in which the system remains in operation. The relationship between the interests of the Indians and the interests of the state has always been an important issue for Spain. Since the national congress or "Cortes" will undoubtedly vote to abolish the "mita," and thus needs no further persuasion, the author, Jaureguí [?] seeks to educate the public by correcting two mistakenly-held views on forced labor: first, that without the mita, the mines in America would have been left untouched for lack of workers, given the difficulty of the work and the natural laziness of the Indians. However, history proves this case wrong, and the author cites Solórzano, who points out that more Indians voluntarily worked the mines in Huancavelica and Potosí than were forced. Furthermore, there was no mita in Mexico, yet there were plenty of Indians available to work in the mines at Guanajuato. Finally, the higher wages meant that the Indians would naturally want to work in the mines. The second myth to be disproved is the idea that the Indians are especially suited to working in the mines. The author notes that mines all over Spain and Europe have been worked for centuries by people other than Indians. The Indians’ strength as mineworkers is not due to some innate aspect of their constitution, but to the tolerance built up after many years of such work. If criminals are punished by sending them to work in the mines, why condemn innocent Indians to the same fate? The author hopes that the congressional representatives will vote to abolish the system of forced labor forever. In Spanish. Robles, E.G.

  • An Environmental History of the Middle Rio Grande Basin
    United States Department of From the Rio to the Sierra: Agriculture Forest Service An Environmental History of Rocky Mountain Research Station the Middle Rio Grande Basin Fort Collins, Colorado 80526 General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-5 Dan Scurlock i Scurlock, Dan. 1998. From the rio to the sierra: An environmental history of the Middle Rio Grande Basin. General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-5. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 440 p. Abstract Various human groups have greatly affected the processes and evolution of Middle Rio Grande Basin ecosystems, especially riparian zones, from A.D. 1540 to the present. Overgrazing, clear-cutting, irrigation farming, fire suppression, intensive hunting, and introduction of exotic plants have combined with droughts and floods to bring about environmental and associated cultural changes in the Basin. As a result of these changes, public laws were passed and agencies created to rectify or mitigate various environmental problems in the region. Although restoration and remedial programs have improved the overall “health” of Basin ecosystems, most old and new environmental problems persist. Keywords: environmental impact, environmental history, historic climate, historic fauna, historic flora, Rio Grande Publisher’s Note The opinions and recommendations expressed in this report are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the USDA Forest Service.

    THE TULANE EUROPEAN AND CIVIL LAW FORUM VOLUME 31/32 2017 A Confusion of Institutions: Spanish Law and Practice in a Francophone Colony, Louisiana, 1763-circa 1798 Paul E Hoffman* I. INTRODUCTION ..................................................................................... 1 II. THE ECONOMIC SYSTEM AND LOCAL LAW AND ORDER .................... 4 III. SLAVERY ............................................................................................. 13 IV. CONCLUSION ...................................................................................... 20 I. INTRODUCTION French Louisiana had been a thorn in the flank of Spain’s Atlantic Empire from its founding in 1699. Failure to remove that thorn in 1699 and again in 1716, when doing so would have been comparatively easy and Spanish naval forces were positioned to do so, meant that by 1762 the wound had festered, so that the colony had become what La Salle, Iberville, Bienville, and their royal masters had envisioned: a smuggling station through which French goods reached New Spain and Cuba and their goods—dye stuffs and silver mostly—reached France and helped to pay the costs of a colony that consumed more than it produced, at least so 1 far as the French crown’s finances were concerned. * © 2017 Paul E Hoffman. Professor Emeritus of History, Louisiana State University. 1. I have borrowed the “thorn” from ROBERT S. WEDDLE, THE FRENCH THORN: RIVAL EXPLORERS IN THE SPANISH SEA, 1682-1762 (1991); ROBERT S.

B. Brodey and Todd Ramón Ochoa) This dissertation is a critical analysis and annotated translation, from Spanish into English, of the book Reglas de Congo: Palo Monte Mayombe, by the Cuban anthropologist, artist, and writer Lydia Cabrera (1899-1991). Cabrera’s text is a hybrid ethnographic book of religion, slave narratives (oral history), and folklore (songs, poetry) that she devoted to a group of Afro-Cubans known as “los Congos de Cuba,” descendants of the Africans who were brought to the Caribbean island of Cuba during the trans-Atlantic Ocean African slave trade from the former Kongo Kingdom, which occupied the present-day southwestern part of Congo-Kinshasa, Congo-Brazzaville, Cabinda, and northern Angola. The Kongo Kingdom had formal contact with Christianity through the Kingdom of Portugal as early as the 1490s.
