Sumario:The present volume of Patristica & Mediaevalia has as a central topic philosophical, along with theological and legal, assessments to a particular form of slavery -i.e. Black slavery- regrettably practiced in Latin America, in the period that stretches from the 16th up to the 19th century. Even more specifically, the contributors present studies on authors and works that could be characterized as representing "Second Scholasticism" broadly speaking, which should include some representative thinkers both of Iberian and Latin-American Scholasticism. In this regard, the six following studies constitute a unique sample of historical and systematic essays on slavery, as one keeps in mind that there is still a notorious lack of philosophical studies dealing with such authors and works, evaluating the ways they made moral, legal and political considerations not only on slavery generally speaking, but particularly on the issue of Black slavery.
