Author Biography

Leonardo Hernández, SUNY—Oswego

Leonardo Hernández is Associate Professor of History at the State University of New York, Oswego. He specializes on colonial Guatemala and on ethnic relations in colonial southeastern Mesoamerica (Chiapas, Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras).  His research interests include an ongoing project on colonial Afro-Guatemalan religiosity and religious literacy using XVIII Inquisition records.  While of course wishing to highlight the contributions of colonial Afro-Guatemalans to Guatemalan culture, his interest in this topic is also rooted in exploring the colonial history of Guatemala which remains woefully understudied.
