Though the Aztec Empire fell to Spain in 1521, three principal heirs of the last emperor, Moctezuma II, survived the conquest and were later acknowledged by the Spanish victors as reyes naturales (natural kings or monarchs) who possessed certain inalienable rights as Indian royalty. For their part, the descendants of Moctezuma II used Spanish law and customs to maintain and enhance their status throughout the colonial period, achieving titles of knighthood and nobility in Mexico and Spain. So respected were they that a Moctezuma descendant by marriage became Viceroy of New Spain (colonial Mexico's highest governmental office) in 1696. This authoritative history follows the fortunes of the principal heirs of Moctezuma II across nearly two centuries. Drawing on extensive research in both Mexican and Spanish archives, Donald E. Chipman shows how daughters Isabel and Mariana and son Pedro and their offspring used lawsuits, strategic marriages, and political maneuvers and alliances to gain pensions, rights of entailment, admission to military orders, and titles of nobility from the Spanish government. Chipman also discusses how the Moctezuma family history illuminates several larger issues in colonial Latin American history, including women's status and opportunities and trans-Atlantic relations between Spain and its New World colonies.

Con la publicación de La decadencia de Occidente, el filósofo e historiador alemán Oswald Spengler (1880-1936) logró gran notoriedad en la década de 1920, al predecir la caída de las civilizaciones occidentales y desarrollar un esquema de procesos históricos recurrentes, una suerte de morfología comparativa de las culturas. Se proponía el análisis de ocho grandes culturas –junto a la Antigüedad y a Occidente, India, Babilonia, China, Egipto, Arabia y el México prehispánico–, pero omitió el tratamiento de este último casi completamente. Su ópera prima Moctezuma. Un drama (1897), publicada en alemán en 2011 y hasta ahora inédita en español, arroja una nueva luz sobre el interés de Spengler por el antiguo México, la tierra que, según argumenta Anke Birkenmaier en su estudio introductorio, paradójicamente, fue la excepción y el primer sillar de su morfología de la cultura.

"Skillful chronological narrative, relying on ethnohistorical sources, of the history of the Aztec empire, with particular attention to the relatively lightly studied reign of Montezuma (1502-1520). Provides some attention to controversial issues, such as the Aztecs' predictions of the coming of the Spanish, Quetzalcoatl's expected return, and conflicting stories about Montezuma's death. One interesting chapter examines the daily life of the Mexican sovereign"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
