Salamanca in America. Legal History has been interested in the ‘School of Salamanca’ mainly because of its contributions to systematic and dogmatic legal thought. The School was seen as part of the history of legal scholarship. It was because of this perspective that it was considered to be a European phenomenon. In this article, I am proposing a complementary vision of the School. Drawing on an example of how the problem of usura was dealt with in late 16th century New Spain, I call attention to the practical dimension of the School; I intend to highlight its place in a history of ‘finding the law’ (Rechtsfindung); I want to point out that the School can be seen as a producer of erudite practices, especially considering its particular casuistry, which does not fit easily into the traditional history of continental European law as a history of systematization. Looking at these dimensions, the School of Salamanca seizes to be a European phenomenon, but turns out to be a network which stretches over continents. Thus, ‘Salamanca’ was also a part of Amerika.

It is especially fitting that the Academy of American Franciscan History is being formally inaugurated this month, for in this same month of April, three hundred and thirty-five years ago, the Franciscan Commissary General of the Indies, by authority of the General of the Franciscan Order, instructed Fray Juan de Torquemada to prepare an official history of the Franciscan province of New Spain, the first to be published, in words that may well be repeated here. He wrote: “Considering how just and desirable it is that the memory of saintly men, who by their heroic deeds honored our Holy Religion, … be preserved for all time … :We are of the opinion that in our own times it is desirable to prepare chronicles that make known these deeds … And having investigated with special care the persons in this province of ours of talent, learning, virtue, and the other qualifications necessary for such an important and arduous undertaking, we have agreed that your reverence, who has all of these qualifications, be entrusted and charged … with bringing to light the many unknown facts of importance that are worthy of being recorded and known by everyone. And thus, by these presents, we request, and if necessary so order, that your reverence undertake to gather all of the reports and writings … that may be found, for the preparation of new chronicles of all the provinces, verifying anew the facts in each case, and inquiring into, or tracing and checking, the specific and general matters of importance … which in that and the other provinces of New Spain may be verified and written up, your reverence preparing all in good literary style and in historical form…

El artículo está dedicado a una enciclopedia de la cultura nahua, Historia General de las Cosas de la Nueva España, del siglo XVI y una de sus ediciones polaca Rzecz z dziejów Nowej Hiszpanii. Księgi I, II i III (2007), editada por Kamila Baraniecka. Tradicionalmente, dicha enciclopedia es considerada como el resultado del trabajo de campo etnográfico efectuado por un fraile franciscano español, Bernardino de Sahagún, cuestión que se discute aquí ampliamente. Resulta que el polisistema polaco dispone de cuatro diferentes reescrituras-traducciones de fragmentos seleccionados de la enciclopedia, que se centran en distintos temas. No obstante, se presta una atención especial a la traducción hecha en base a un hipertexto español (Primeros memoriales) y un hipertexto inglés (himnos) que son unas versiones del “original” bilingüe. La edición de Baraniecka es analizada como la que tiene carácter científico y, aparte de centrarse en la religión azteca, se complementa con una serie de diversos paratextos, como una introducción, notas a pie de página y un glosario. This paper is devoted to an 16th century encyclopaedia of the Nahua culture, General History of the Things of New Spain, and one of its Polish editions Rzecz z dziejów Nowej Hiszpanii. Księgi I, II i III (2007) edited by Kamila Baraniecka. Traditionally, the encyclopaedia is considered as a result of the ethnographic fieldwork of a Spanish Franciscan friar, Bernardino de Sahagún, a question that is largely discussed here. It turns out that the Polish polysystem deals with four different rewritings-translations of selected fragments of the encyclopaedia, which are focused on different topics. Nevertheless, special attention is paid to the edition translated from Spanish (Primeros memoriales) and English (hymns) hypertexts of the “original” bilingual encyclopaedia. Baraniecka’s edition is analysed as a scientific one, focused on the Aztec religion, and completed with a series of various paratexts, such as an introduction, footnotes and a glossary.
