The Synod of Manila of 1582 was the the Constitutional Convention of that time which laid down the rules and provided for their enforcement by a penalty deemed much greater than capital punishment would be deemed now: the penalty of eternal damnation. The story of this book is the story of the rules imposed by the clergy on the conquistadores to Project the Filipino Indios.
A Philippine import.
