Présentation de l'éditeur

Peruvian, and Colonel in the Constitutionalist Army in Mexico (L ate 1913) Peoples tumultuous. Feverish countrysides. Latin A merica, sunstruck and mad. (P rehistoric) Empires decked in the pomp of the warrior, blinded with luxury, deafened by sound, Stolid priests hacking out entrails and viscera wild sacrifices to Gods of the mound. Martinet masters who drag out the hours in low sensualities foreign to Love, Fatuous peoples all, like to their posts: heartless, whom only their fancies can move. (1520) Then arrives Spain with her cross and her sorrows, after her centuries seven of strife. Phantomlike multitudes (fair gods on horses) lay waste the Andes and strip them of life. Pizarro and A lmagro cross their keen rapiers in fratricide strife that runs on till to-day Hernan Cortez in the arms of Marina, mingles two bloods that are marked for decay. Offspring, a Gryphon; futile, insane Eagle of feather, and lion of mane. Moorish depression conies out of the desert, clinging all time to the strange Spanish horse. Wailing, its sadness finds echo in A ndes, mountains now silent and dumb with remorse.
