| Summary |
Spanish: ℓFray Pedro fue siempre lego por voluntad propia. Permaneció en México y entregó su vida a los indios, cuya lengua aprendió elaborando con sus compañeros pequeños vocabularios que transformaban en cartillas y gramáticas. Por las dificultades de traducire las lenguas indígenas, los religiosos dirigidos por Gante, emplearon figuras y jeroglíficos conocidos por los indios, para transmitirles la catequesis y la cultura. A este tipo pertenece el Catecismo de fray Pedro; precioso volumen de reducido tamaño, con los elementos de la doctrina cristiana representados por signos y dibujos coloreados de trazo infantil, ordenados en franjas seriadas, de izquierda a derecha, por ambas caras. Se inicia con la fórmula para persignarse, y continúa con el padre nuestro, el avemaría, los mandamientos, los sacramentos y las obras de misericordia. La última página está firmada por el autor.ℓ ℓEnglish: ℓBrother Peter was always a layman by his own decision. He remained in Mexico and devoted his life to the Indians, whose language he learned by drawing up small vocabularies with his colleagues, which he transformed into books and grammars. Due to the difficulty of translating the indigenous languages, the members of the religious order directed by Gante used figures and hieroglyphics known by the Indians to transmit them their catechism and culture. The Catechism of Brother Peter is one of this type of works; a precious volume of reduced size, with the elements of the Christian doctrine represented by signs and drawings, coloured with childlike stokes, ordered in strips, from left to right on both sides. It begins with the formula to cross oneself and continues with the Lord's Prayer, the Hail Mary, the commandments, sacraments and the acts of mercy. The last page is signed by the author.ℓ |
