Rilegato. Condition: molto buono. Dust Jacket Condition: molto buono. New Orleans thrived under Spanish rule (1762 1803), linked through trade and empire to the nerve centers of the circum-Caribbean. Curator Alfred E. Lemmon s introduction in this bilingual volume explores the far-reaching ways in which the Spanish influence is evident in the city to this day, in architecture, agriculture, science, and the arts. Two additional essays by noted scholars examine other facets of the city s development during this period: Light Townsend Cummins reflects on the city s role as an outpost of the Enlightenment in the Americas, while Richard Campanella explores the growth of city planning and urbanism. The Spanish period saw shifts in the legal landscape surrounding slavery, as well as the dramatic growth of the city s population of free people of color. The daily lives of New Orleanians, and the city s constant interaction with the Caribbean and the greater Spanish empire, are documented in the surviving examples of material culture, maps, manuscripts, and artworks presented here. Distributed for The Historic New Orleans Collection.
