A set of representative selections from the Neo-Latin works of New Spain for the Latin classroom. This pioneering text presents four prose writers—Acosta, Columbus, Cortés, and Salazar—and two epic poets—Landívar and Cabrera—whose works present the Europeans' first views of the land that would become New Spain and trace the development of the preconquest Tenochtitlán into Mexico City. These authentic selections from the New World offer students who have completed their initial Latin grammar studies a special view of the full legacy of Latin literature.
