Synopsis

Pre-Columbian and Colonial America addresses the historical events that occurred in the American continent. It is based on a concern for past events and how different cultures fit together in a diverse and extensive geography, unknown to Europeans until the 15th century. It thus presents events from the Aztec, Mayan, and Quechua cultures, as well as the experiences of European explorers and conquerors who made America their nerve center, earning them a distinguished reputation in the pages of universal history. The text also consists of inquiries into scriptural aspects, such as those developed by the poet Nezahualcóyotl; and Chilam Balam, a work that recounts the historical events and circumstances of the Mayan civilisation. Similarly, Alonso de Ercilla y Zúñiga's La Araucana depicts, through an exemplary epic, the war between the Spanish and the Araucanian Indians during the conquest of Chile in the 16th century.
