Reseña del editor:
Mapping Colonial Spanish America is the first book-length investigation of the discursive and cultural production of space in colonial Spanish America from the fifteenth to the eighteenth centuries. Engaging with many canonical and non-canonical authors, the essays in this volume work together to inquire into the spatial configurations of colonial Spanish America and its inhabitants to provide new perspectives on issues of identity, race, gender, politics, and the construction of urban and rural geographies.
