Resumen
ZORRILLA, Víctor. Los instrumentos argumentativos de la defensa lascasiana de la plena racionalidad de los indios. Tópicos (México) [online]. 2008, n.34, pp.223-231. ISSN 0188-6649. https://doi.org/10.21555/top.v34i1.154.
This work studies Bartolomé de las Casas’ main arguments that defend the full rationality of the American Indians, in which we find (1) a positive description of the American Indian Cultures; (2) a comparison of the former with the ancient Indo-European Cultures; (3) the incorporation of the American Indian Cultures in to the world view of human civilizations; (4) the demonstration of certain negative characteristics found in pagan cultures which can only be overcome through the preaching of the Gospel.
Palabras llave : Las Casas; anthropology; American aboriginal cultures.
