  abstract: The printing press was introduced to Puebla, Mexico, in the middle of the 17th century. Juan de Borja y Gandía and his wife Inés Vásquez Infante, Spanish immigrants from Cadiz, Spain established a printing press and book selling business in the portals of the Puebla Cathedral. She continued his entrepreneurial duties following his death in 1656. The majority of her publications pertained to sermons for funerals and festive occasions.

The Cushing exemplar's appearance has been marred by an unknown liquid, but it does not detract from the beautifully displayed text. Section 1 introduces the exemplar and the sermon genre in New Spain. Section 2 studies the author, Joseph Días Chamorro, and Section 3 focuses on the Borja family of printers. In Section 4 appear studies of the sermon, the exemplar, a transcription, and text notes. The conclusions appear in Section 5, followed by the references. The …
