Franciscan Thought, Evangelization and Empire in the Sixteenth Century: the Writings of John Mair (1467-1550), Alfonso de Castro (1495-1558), Juan Foc

16世纪，方济会修道会有力地塑造了欧洲人对非欧洲人的态度。在方济各会教徒中，苏格兰神学家约翰·梅尔（John maair）在巴黎教书时，在学生中阐述了欧洲人对政治和福音传播的看法，这些学生将他的观点置于西班牙扩张的核心。除了梅尔，我的项目还研究了两个人物：宫廷传教士阿方索·德·卡斯特罗（Alfonso De Castro）和他的《惩罚》（De iusta haereticorum punitione）（1547年的萨拉曼卡），以及传教士胡安·福歇尔（Juan Focher）和他的《旅行记》（Itinerarium and infideles covertendos）（1574年的塞维利亚）。这些人物影响了宫廷和传教领域，照亮了近代早期欧洲帝国计划的政治、文化、宗教和知识基础。

In the sixteenth century the Franciscan order powerfully structured European attitudes to non-Europeans. AmongFranciscans, Scottish theologian John Mair elaborated European assumptions about politics and evangelization whileteaching in Paris, among students who set his ideas at the heart of Spanish expansion. Alongside Mair, my projectexplores two figures: the court preacher Alfonso De Castro and his De iusta haereticorum punitione (Salamanca 1547),and the missionary Juan Focher and his Itinerarium ad infideles covertendos (Sevilla 1574). These figures influencedcourt and mission field illuminating the political, cultural, religious and intellectual underpinnings of imperial projects inearly modern Europe.
