Manuscritos<\/strong><\/h3>\n

La biblioteca tambi\u00e9n conserva una de las mayores y m\u00e1s importantes colecciones de manuscritos y documentos hist\u00f3ricos de Latinoam\u00e9rica y Filipinas de los siglos xvi al xix que existen en Estados Unidos. Muchos de ellos son de gran trascendencia hist\u00f3rica, tales como las \u00abActas\u00bb del Cabildo de Santiago de los Caballeros (Antigua), Guatemala, correspondientes a los a\u00f1os 1530\u20131553, las cuales ofrecen una cr\u00f3nica de los or\u00edgenes de la autonom\u00eda de Guatemala. Algunos miembros destacados del Concejo por aquella \u00e9poca eran los conquistadores Pedro de Alvarado, conquistador y gobernador de Guatemala, y Bernal D\u00edaz del Castillo, autor de la Verdadera historia de la conquista de la Nueva Espa\u00f1a <\/em>(Madrid, 1632), cuyos aut\u00f3grafos aparecen en docenas de documentos. M\u00e1s de ciento veinte documentos relacionados con el cardenal Charles-Thomas Maillard de Tournon, legado apost\u00f3lico en China desde 1701 hasta su fallecimiento en 1710, guardan constancia de las actividades de las misiones espa\u00f1olas en China y Filipinas entre 1635 y 1742. Los Papeles de la Comisi\u00f3n de L\u00edmites entre M\u00e9xico y Estados Unidos (1849\u20131856), un archivo con m\u00e1s de ochocientas p\u00e1ginas de cartas y documentos oficiales reunidos por el comisario de M\u00e9xico Jos\u00e9 Salazar Ilarregui, rastrean el establecimiento de la actual frontera entre Estados Unidos y M\u00e9xico tras la firma del Tratado de Guadalupe Hidalgo (1848) y el Tratado de la Mesilla o Venta de la Mesilla (1853) (conocido como \u00abcompra Gadsden\u00bb en Estados Unidos). El archivo m\u00e1s extenso de la biblioteca, una colecci\u00f3n de casi cien mil p\u00e1ginas de documentos, se centra en la administraci\u00f3n militar de Cuba desde 1820 hasta la Guerra Hispano-Estadounidense, com\u00fanmente conocida como Guerra de Cuba.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/article>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n\r\n

Los manuscritos relacionados con las civilizaciones ind\u00edgenas y la historia natural de las Am\u00e9ricas representan otra importante faceta de la colecci\u00f3n. El zapoteca \u00c1rbol geneal\u00f3gico de Macuilxochitl<\/em> (Oaxaca, M\u00e9xico, hacia 1570), considerado el manuscrito pictogr\u00e1fico zapoteca m\u00e1s antiguo que se conserva a tan gran escala, retrata a quince generaciones de gobernantes que se remontan al siglo xiii. Obras compuestas por misioneros espa\u00f1oles y por sus conversos del Nuevo Mundo conservan la lengua, historia y cultura de los pueblos ind\u00edgenas del continente americano. Entre ellas se encuentran una colecci\u00f3n de sermones y textos devocionales del siglo xvi compuestos por Fray Fabi\u00e1n de Aquino, \u00e9l mismo ind\u00edgena converso; una colecci\u00f3n de sermones en la lengua matlatzinca<\/em> de Toluca, M\u00e9xico (hacia 1560), de Fray Andr\u00e9s de Castro, el primer espa\u00f1ol que aprendi\u00f3 este complejo idioma; y la gram\u00e1tica an\u00f3nima del siglo xvi de la lengua oficial de la civilizaci\u00f3n inca, Arte de la lengua general de Cusco llamada kechua<\/em>. La diversidad cultural del M\u00e9xico del siglo xviii aparece reflejada en la obra Origen, costumbres, y estado presente de mexicanos y filipinos <\/em>(M\u00e9xico, 1763), de Joaqu\u00edn Antonio Basar\u00e1s, un comerciante espa\u00f1ol de Guanajuato.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/article>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n\r\n

Libros Raros anteriores a 1830<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Muchos de los grandes tesoros de la biblioteca son originarios de las regiones de Am\u00e9rica Latina y Asia. Los incunables procedentes de estas regiones consisten, en gran parte, en catecismos y diccionarios de las lenguas ind\u00edgenas u otras obras de \u00edndole did\u00e1ctica. El primer libro completo impreso en el Nuevo Mundo que se conserva, Dotrina breve <\/em>(M\u00e9xico, 1543), de Juan de Zum\u00e1rraga, primer obispo de M\u00e9xico, ostenta el pie de imprenta del impresor sevillano Juan Cromberger, quien fund\u00f3 la primera imprenta de las Am\u00e9ricas. De la primera imprenta creada en Sudam\u00e9rica proviene uno de los m\u00e1s singulares incunables peruanos, el Tercero catechismo <\/em>(Lima, 1585) de Jos\u00e9 de Acosta, c\u00e9lebre historiador y misionero jesuita cuyo aut\u00f3grafo aparece en la portada del ejemplar que alberga la biblioteca. Antes de la creaci\u00f3n en Asia de imprentas de tipos m\u00f3viles, los misioneros espa\u00f1oles y portugueses de China y Filipinas, en colaboraci\u00f3n con artesanos nativos, produc\u00edan libros xilogr\u00e1ficos. La Hispanic Society posee varios ejemplos poco comunes de esta temprana forma de impresi\u00f3n, tales como Innocentia victrix <\/em>(Cant\u00f3n, 1671), cuyas p\u00e1ginas de texto fueron enteramente talladas a mano a partir de bloques, o planchas, de madera de boj. Pero no todas las impresiones pr\u00edncipe o de car\u00e1cter \u00fanico de la Hispanic Society datan de los siglos xvi y xvii: la biblioteca alberga numerosas obras modernas de gran singularidad entre sus decenas de miles de libros impresos en Latinoam\u00e9rica, aunque resulta especialmente rese\u00f1able la \u00fanica copia que ha sobrevivido del primer libro impreso en Puerto Rico, un peque\u00f1o volumen de poes\u00eda titulado Ocios de la juventud <\/em>(Puerto Rico, 1806), de Juan Rodr\u00edguez Calder\u00f3n.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/article>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n\r\n
