The Middle Ages in Chile. History of the Church

The Middle Ages of Chile presents a remarkable effort of historical compilation about the founding of the Catholic Church in the country. It addresses not only the evolution of the first communities but also contributes to the historical, cultural and religious understanding of an era. Through concrete facts, works and traditions of this legacy, this book takes us into a cosmos of relationships and exchanges marked by the encounter and cultural diversity between "first" the conquerors and the indigenous peoples. Then, the process of fusion of the Conquest and the Colony, to finally describe the role of the Church during the formation of the Republic.
