Abstract

The purpose of this thesis is to give some account of the censorship of books in sixteenth-century Mexico. In the preparation of this study the author carried on investigations of limited scope in the Mexican archives, but more extensive research in the manuscripts would be required for a definitive treatment of the subject. This paper, based largely on printed materials, is intended to serve merely as a preliminary survey of an important phase of the cultural history of Mexico in colonial times.
