Download or read book The Medieval Heritage of Mexico written by Luis Weckmann and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 712 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the medieval legacy that influences life in Spanish-speaking North America to the present day. Focusing on the period from 1517?the expedition of Hernandez de Cordoba?to the middle of the seventeenth century, Weckmann describes how explorers, administrators, judges, and clergy introduced to the New World a culture that was essentially medieval. That the transplanted culture differentiated itself from that of Spain is due to the resistance of the indigenous cultures of Mexico.
