This was not simply an expansion of Spanish-Christian hegemony, for Nahuas who mastered the discourses and practices of Marian devotion controlled potent symbolic capital. Nahuatl texts and English translations are presented here in parallel columns, making the book useful to students of Nahuatl, as well as to anyone interested in Marianism, evangelization, or Mexican religion. Extensive commentary on the texts traces their European background and illuminates their meanings and uses in the Mexican setting. Louise M. Burkhart is Associate Professor of Anthropology and Latin American and Caribbean Studies and Director of the Institute for Mesoamerican Studies at the University at Albany, SUNY.
