The Origins of Mexican Catholicism: Nahua Rituals and Christian Sacraments in Sixteenth-century Mexico - History, Languages & Cultures of the Spanish & Portuguese Worlds New edition

Countering the traditional view that colonial coercion was the driving force behind the religious conversion of the native population in 16th century Mexico, the author shows how Spanish missionaries in fact drew on existing native ceremonies in order to make Christianity more accessible to the Nahua population they were trying to convert.
