Vasco de Quiroga arrived to the New World and his life and his work changed. A man of study, books allowed him continue thinking about a reality that he didn’t see at all in the Catholic Europe: humbleness and simplicity of the indigenous people. These and other characteristics of life and work of don Vasco were understood by Silvio Zavala from an early age. And at any time that he had the opportunity he made to know his findings, the influences of the Bishop of Michoacan had, his pastoral deed, putting in to practice his ideas, his life testimony. In Zavala’s work, don Vasco, it’s an example of humanism. Quiroga’s thought has to be studied on the defense he made of the Indians against the cruelty from the conqueror and because he structured the elements of the primitive Church that he desired and long for that had been lost in the European Catholic.

Palabras llave : Utopism; influences; church; hospitals; cruelty; simplicity.
