内容説明
This Companion aims to give an up-to-date overview of the historical context and the conceptual framework of Spanish imperial expansion during the early modern period, mostly during the 16th century. It intends to offer a nuanced and balanced account of the complexities of this historically controversial period analyzing first its historical underpinnings, then shedding light on the normative language behind imperial theorizing and finally discussing issues that arose with the experience of the conquest of American polities, such as colonialism, slavery or utopia. The aim of this volume is to uncover the structural and normative elements of the theological, legal and philosophical arguments about Spanish imperial ambitions in the early modern period.
Contributors are Manuel Herrero Sanchez, Jose Luis Egio, Christiane Birr, Miguel Anxo Pena Gonzalez, Tamar Herzog, Merio Scattola, Virpi Makinen, Wim Decock, Christian Schafer, Francisco Castilla Urbano, Daniel Schwartz, Felipe Castaneda, Jose Luis Ramos Gorostiza, Luis Perdices de Blas, Beatriz Fernandez Herrero.
