Today we’d like to extend a warm welcome to Barbara E. Mundy, Professor of Art History at Fordham University. Professor Mundy teaches on art history in Latin America, with a particular interest in indigenous sixteenth-century art and cartography. Her publications include The Mapping of New Spain: Indigenous Cartography and the Maps of the Relaciones Geográficas, The Death of Aztec Tenochtitlan, the Life of Mexico City, and the co-edited volume Painting a Map of Sixteenth-Century Mexico City: Land, Writing and Native Rule. She is also the co-creator of the digital art history project, Vistas: Visual Culture in Spanish America, 1520-1820, co-authored with Dana Leibsohn. On this episode, we’ll be diving into the complex world of colonial Mexico. So, what are the maps of the relaciones geográficas of New Spain, and why are they so fascinating? Why is it essential to study indigenous sources for the post-conquest world of Mexico, rather than just European ones? And why are images so important in our investigation of the past? Listen on to find out more.If you have any thoughts, questions, or comments about this episode, or would like to pitch us an idea for a new episode, feel free to email us at theglobalhistorypodcast@gmail.com, or send us a message on our website’s contact form, facebook, twitter, or instagram.
