摘要:The analysis of judicial proceedings cencerning inheritances offers a means to evaluate the material success of emigrants to America in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, confronting their expectations with the real economic and social opportunities of the New World. The books accumulated by many Spaniards in Peru, besides being one aspect of this wealth, provide a means of studying such topics as trade and circulation of books in America, their prices, subject matters, and so forth.
