Inhalt:

"Bartholomew de Las Casas: His Life, Apostolate, and Writings" through Francis Augustus MacNutt offers a comprehensive exploration of the top notch lifestyles and contributions of Bartholomew de Las Casas. Las Casas, a sixteenth-century Spanish Dominican friar, become a key parent in advocating for the rights and dignity of the indigenous peoples of the Americas for the duration of the Age of Exploration. MacNutt delves into Las Casas' life, chronicling his adventure from a participant within the Spanish colonization to a fervent defender of the rights of Native Americans. Las Casas underwent a profound conversion, forsaking his encomienda (land and hard work offers) and becoming a vocal critic of the mistreatment of indigenous populations. His apostolate targeted on selling justice and compassion, making him a pivotal figure within the early history of human rights advocacy. The book also examines Las Casas' writings, which encompass numerous works detailing the atrocities committed against the indigenous peoples and arguing for their humane remedy. MacNutt gives insights into Las Casas' theological reflections and moral principles, losing light at the intellectual underpinnings of his advocacy. Overall, MacNutt's work serves as a valuable biography, capturing the essence of Las Casas' lifestyles, his unwavering apostolate for justice, and the long-lasting effect of his writings on the ancient narrative of European colonization and indigenous rights within the Americas.
