Since its original appearance in 1949, Irving A. Leonard's pioneering Books of the Brave has endured as the classic account of the introduction of literary culture to the Spanish New World. Leonard's study documents the works of fiction that accompanied and followed the conquistadores to the Americas and argues that popular texts influenced these men and shaped the way they thought and wrote about their experiences.

UC Press's 1992 edition combines Leonard's text with a selection of the documents that were his most valuable sources—nine lists of books destined for the Indies. Containing a wealth of information, these lists provide the documentary evidence for what is perhaps Leonard's greatest contribution: his demonstration that royal and inquisitorial prohibitions failed to control the circulation of books and ideas in colonial Spanish America.

Rolena Adorno's introduction reaffirms the lasting value of Books of the Brave and chronicles developments in cultural-historical studies that have shed light on the role of books in Spanish American colonial culture. Adorno situates Leonard's work at the threshold between older, triumphalist views of Spanish conquest history and more recent perspectives engendered by studies of native American peoples.

With its rich descriptions of the book trade in both Spain and America, Books of the Brave has much to offer historians as well as literary critics. Indeed, it is a highly readable and engaging book for anyone interested in the cultural life of the New World. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1992.

英文| 510页|加州大学出版社;第一版(2022年3月25日)|0520301943|EPUB | 6 Mb自1949年首次出版以来,欧文·A·伦纳德的开创性著作《勇敢的书》一直是将文学文化引入西班牙新世界的经典之作。伦纳德的研究记录了伴随征服者来到美洲的小说作品,并认为流行文本影响了这些人,塑造了他们思考和书写自己经历的方式。 加州大学出版社1992年的版本将伦纳德的文本与他最有价值的文献——九份运往印度的书籍清单——结合在一起。这些清单包含了丰富的信息,为伦纳德最大的贡献提供了文件证据:他证明了皇家和审问式禁令未能控制殖民地西班牙美洲的书籍和思想的流通。 Rolena Adorno的引言重申了《勇敢之书》的持久价值,并记录了文化史研究的发展,这些研究揭示了书籍在西班牙裔美国殖民文化中的作用。阿多诺将伦纳德的作品置于对西班牙征服历史的古老胜利主义观点和对美洲原住民研究产生的较新观点之间。 《勇敢的书》对西班牙和美国的图书贸易进行了丰富的描述,为历史学家和文学评论家提供了很多东西。事实上,对于任何对新世界文化生活感兴趣的人来说,这是一本可读性很强、引人入胜的书。这个标题是加州大学出版社“声音复兴”计划的一部分,该计划纪念加州大学出版社的使命,即寻找和培养最聪明的人才,并给予他们声音、影响力和影响力。《Voices Revived》基于1893年的一份反向列表,利用按需打印技术,再次提供了高质量、同行评审的奖学金。这本书最初出版于1992年。
