This volume documents the period of 1670 to 1700 and focuses on the Dominican missions in the Philippines, exploring the religious, cultural, and political dynamics of the islands during this era. The text is rich with primary source material, offering a detailed analysis of early missionary efforts and the interactions between European missionaries and local populations. The opening of the volume provides an introduction to the historical context of the Dominican missions, indicating the competitive atmosphere among religious orders in the Philippines. It highlights the arrival of new missionaries from Spain and their efforts to establish control in various regions, particularly in Zambales and Cagayan, while also addressing the conflicts and dynamics with local indigenous cultures. The text delves into the experiences of missionaries as they attempt to convert indigenous peoples, facing both successes and challenges, such as resistance, cultural misunderstandings, and the complexities of coexistence with the local beliefs and practices. Overall, the beginning sets the stage for a deeper exploration of faith, colonization, and ethnographic studies in the subsequent chapters.
