History

Hardback. Adopting an alternative approach to the question of difference, this title examines what it meant to be mestizo in the early colonial era. It draws on lively vignettes culled from the 16th and 17th-century archives of the New Kingdom of Granada to show that individuals classified as "mixed" were not members of coherent sociological groups.
