Las obrasBartolomé de Las Casas, 1646LAS CASAS, Bartolomé de (1474-1566). [Las obras del obispo Bartholmeo de la Casas. Barcelona: Antonio Lacavelleria, 1646.] JCB copy of the works of Bartolomé de las Casas. His work documents the early years of Spanish colonization in the West Indies, and his reports of Spanish atrocities against Native people helped give rise to the Black Legend. Las Casas argued in favor of the rights of Indigenous people at the Valladolid debate, resulting in the passage of the Leyes Nuevas by Charles V and the weakening of the encomienda system. The first edition of his works was published in 1552, and this later edition is often mistaken for it in absence of its general title—the editions can be easily differentiated by the fact that this later edition is in Roman type, while the first is in gothic. JCB II:339; Palau 46951; Sabin 11239. Quarto (198 x 137mm). Section titles, first with type-ornament border and woodcut emblem, woodcut initials (without general title and approbation page; a few pale dampstains in margins and other small stains). 19th-century navy morocco with gilt monogram of John Carter Brown (hinges expertly repaired). Provenance: John Carter Brown (1797-1874; supralibros, bookplate; bequeathed to:) – John Carter Brown Library (duplicate release stamp, and ink stamp in text).
