Résumé:

In Book Twelve of the Florentine Codex, the 16th century study of Ancient Mexico that Franciscan missionary, Fray Bernardino de Sahagún (1499–1590) conducted, the history of the Spanish conquest was captured in the Nahuatl language, accompanied by a translation into Spanish. Nahua elders and authors who were formerly Sahagún’s students at the Colegio de Santa Cruz de Tlatelolco, conducted research, organized evidence, wrote and edited Sahagún’s findings. Sahagún worked on this project from 1545 up until his death in 1590. Charles E. Dibble and Arthur J. O. Anderson are the first to translate all twelve books of the Codex from Nahuatl to English, in a project that took 30 years to complete. This book focuses on the original Book Twelve of the Florentine Codex which recounts the history of the conflict with a greater perspective from the Nahuatl.
