[AMERICAS]. GRANADOS Y GÃLVEZ, Joseph Joaquin (1743-1794). Tardes Americanas: Gobierno Gentil y Catolioco: breve y particular noticia de toda la historia Indiana"¦ Mexico: Imprenta Matritense de Felipe de Zúñiga y Ontiveros, 1778.
Small 4to (185 x 132 mm). Engraved coat of arms on page of introduction, one engraved plate (of 3, lacking frontispiece and plate to face p.56), woodcut p.56. (Tape repair to title-page.) Later red calf, smooth spine gilt, morocco lettering-piece gilt, edges stained yellow (upper hinge starting, paper card taped to upper cover, some light soiling). Provenance: Jose Gregorio Hernandez (old bookplate).FIRST EDITION of this historical narrative set as a dialogue between an Otomà and a Spaniard about pre-Hispanic indigenous culture and a critique of the Bourbon Reforms in the viceroyalty of New Spain. "This interesting history of ancient Mexico, written in the form of a dialogue between an Indian and a Spaniard, and divided into seventeen 'Nights,' is very little known in Europe, and is very rare in Mexico. On pp. 90-94 will be found a fragment of Aztec poetry, written by a poet of the euphonious name Notzahaulcoyotl, and translated into Spanish by the author. One of the most curious subjects treated in this work is that of the Mexican Calendar with the names of the days in Mexican and in Spanish. On pp.141 to 150 are given the Mexican names of the kings of the empire of Tescuco." (Field, Indian Bibliography, 620). JCB III:2467; Medina 7000; Palau y Dulcet 108426; Sabin 28255.
