Social imagery during the Late Middle Ages was typically considered to be dominated by the three orders oratores, bellatores, laboratores as the most common way of describing social order, along with body metaphors and comprehensive lists of professions as known from the Danse macabre tradition. None of these actually dominates within the vast genre of lay didactical literature. This book comprises the first systematic investigation of social imagery from a specific late medieval linguistic context. It methodically catalogues images of the social that were used in a particular cultural/literary sphere, and it separates late medieval efforts at catechization in print from the social and religious ruptures that are conventionally thought to have occurred after 1517. The investigation thus compliments recent scholarship on late medieval vernacular literature in Germany, most of which has concentrated on southern urban centres of production. The author fills a major lacuna in this field by concentrating for the first time on the entire extant corpus of vernacular print production in the northern region dominated by the Hanseatic cities and the Middle Low German dialect.

Sea europeo o amerindio, el hombre es considerado por los eclesiásticos del siglo XVI como un pecador manchado por la falta original e inclinado a la transgresión. Por eso, al emprender la conquista de las almas de los indígenas mexicanos, la Iglesia echa mano de una tradición de origen medieval, los exempla: cortas anécdotas de caracter moralizante. Los predicadores, especialmente los jesuitas, dan un nuevo impulso a este género literario como lo comprueba el análisis de sus sermones redactados en lengua náhuatl. Para deconstruir la lengua, los relatos y el universo mental de los indios, los predicadores utilizan todos los procedimientos que les permiten integrar su grey a la humanidad pecadora. De manera más sorprendente, el exemplum encuentra una noción indígena: el tetzahuitl, que reúne el terror sagrado y la conducta escandalosa, complejo en torno al cual se instaura un diálogo entre predicadores españoles y fieles indios, entre el final del siglo XVI y del XVIII. En este libro convergen varias disciplinas: la historia medieval, pues describe por primera vez la posteridad del exemplum; la historia moderna y la antropología, al descubrir un medio, hasta hoy inédito, para la evangelización de los indios de México; también concierne a la literatura de los comportamientos que comprende los rumores y las leyendas urbanas. Por fin, y sobre todo, se interesa en los procesos de globalización y en las ideologías, para demostrar el uso de la noción de pecado en el encuentro entre los mundos.
