"Raising an Empire takes readers on a journey into the world of children and childhood in early modern Ibero-America. Its contributors enter a new field of study in the region and challenge the conventional notion that children are invisible in the historical record. Employing diverse methods to decode a wide variety of sources, these essays present their small subjects - elite maidens, abandoned babies, Indian servants, slave apprentices - through their lives and times."--Jacket.
