Dear friends,
I am out of the office, but have caught the most recent series of missives
on Christian texts. Before we get too far afield, remember that several
score books were printed in Nahuatl prior to 1820 and a huge percentage of
those were ´Christian´´ texts. The first book published in the New World
was a catechism in Nahuatl. Several members of the list, in fact, have
done extensive work on this literature.
Especially see Barry Sell´s dissertation from UCLA on works printed in
Nahuatl in the 16th century.
