Reviews
Pious Imperialism is an innovative analysis that exposes and analyzes the vicissitudes of life in the Spanish and Catholic empire. With this text Conover introduces an important element, the analysis of liturgical practice and history, into the conversations that continually interpret and reevaluate the relationship between church and empire and the ways in which this relationship could be mobilized or invoked to the benefit or detriment of the prevailing sociopolitical contexts.--Daniel E. Nourry Burgos, Reading Religion An important scholarly monograph devoted to Saint Philip of Jesus, the first creole beatified in the New World.--Pierre Ragon, Hispanic American Historical Review The new prism through which Conover views Mexican history makes this volume an important source for graduate students and for established scholars. . . . Highly recommended. --Choice
