Ivonne del Valle, author of Iberian Empires and the Roots of Globalization "The Business of Conquest combines scholarly sagacity, historical knowledge, and innovative theoretical models to give us a revealing and pristine image of the Atlantic world through the looking glass of its economic and cultural foundations. The book is a joyful trip to the very core of the ideas, economic models, tropes, and systems of thought that were used to build, create, sustain, but also criticize and challenge the multiple discourses that converged in the Atlantic world." Juan Vitulli, author of Instable Puente Nicole Legnanis The Business of Conquest is an intriguing examination of the rhetorical constructions of law and empire in the Spanish Atlantic world." Hispanic American Historical Review "Legnanis work offers us a new lens to comprehend the efforts of intellectuals such as Polo Ondegardo and Juan de Matienzo to reinforce the Spanish domination over Andean geographies." Latin American Literary Review
