Patricia Lopes Don now investigates these trials to offer an inside look at this brief but consequential episode of Spanish methods of colonization, providing a fresh interpretation of an early period that has remained too long understudied." "Drawing on previously underutilized records of Inquisition proceedings, Don examines four of the most important trials of native leaders to uncover the Franciscans' motivations for using the Inquisition and the indigenous response to it. She focuses on the consecutive impact of the four trials - against nahualli Martin Ocelotl, an influential native priest; Andres Mixcoatl, an advocate of open resistance to the Franciscans; Miguel Pochtecatl Tlaylotla, a guardian of native religious artifacts; and Don Carlos of Texcoco, a native chief burned at the stake for heresy. Don reveals the heart of Bishop Zumarraga's methods of conducting the trials - including spectacular bonfires in which any native idols found in the possession of professed converts were destroyed. Her knowledge of the contemporary Spain that shaped the friars' perspectives enables Don to offer new understanding of the evolution of Franciscan attitudes toward evangelization." "Through close reading of the trial transcripts, Don explores the learning process the first generation of colonial native leaders underwent as they negotiated religious matters with the Franciscans. As the advantage of accommodating the friars became clear, indigenous peoples caught up in these trials began to modify their older beliefs and practices in strategic ways. Bonfires of Culture reexamines important primary documents and offers a new perspective on a pivotal historical era."--BOOK JACKET. 000351085 61020 $$aFranciscans$$zMexico$$xHistory$$y16th century. 000351085 650_0 $$aIndians, Treatment of$$zMexico$$xHistory$$y16th century. 000351085 650_0 $$aInquisition$$zMexico$$xHistory$$y16th century. 000351085 651_0 $$aMexico$$xHistory$$yConquest, 1519-1540. 000351085 85200 $$bgen$$hF1230$$i.D68$$i2010 000351085 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:351085$$pGLOBAL_SET 000351085 980__ $$aBIB 000351085 980__ $$aBOOK
