A vaca (181 résultats)

Paperback. Etat : Good. Alternative Narratives and Sequels enriches the reader's understanding of and appreciation for Cabeza de Vaca's chronicle, which can be read both as historical record and as fiction (Cabeza de Vaca having written his account years after the events took place). Gonzalo Fern ndez de Oviedo y Vald z's General and Natural History of the Indies (1535) provides a different account of the same journey, while sequels can be found in a 1539 letter from the Viceroy of New Spain to the Emperor and in Fray Marcos de Niza's Relaci n on the Discovery of the Kingdom of Cibola (1539).The Spanish explorers, soldiers, and missionaries of the period saw the New World as a place of enchantment, riches, and opportunity. This spirit is captured in Contexts with documents including a 1493 letter from Christopher Columbus to a potential benefactor of his future travels; Hern n Cort s's 1520 letter from Mexico; and an excerpt from Fray Bartolom 's Brief Account of the Destruction of the Indies (1542). A selection from Miguel Le n Portilla's Broken Spears provides readers with the viewpoint of the vanquished.Criticism includes five major assessments of Chronicle of the Narv ez Expedition spanning eighty years. Contributors include Morris Bishop, Rolena Adorno and Patrick Charles Pautz, Paul Schneider, Andr s Res ndez, and Beatriz Rivera-Barnes.A Chronology, Selected Bibliography, and Index are also included.…

Etat : New. Idioma/Language: Español. Si bien las primeras expediciones a la Florida desde su descubrimiento en 1512 tuvieron en común su fracaso final, el intento de Pánfilo de Narváez en 1527 ha pasado a la posteridad como máximo ejemplo de insensatez e improvisación. Felizmente, tal catástrofe nos dejó el documento excepcional en que Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca relató sus desventuras, desde la dispersión de las naves y el cautiverio de sus tripulantes, hasta su posterior liberación y la penosa peregrinación durante años por las tierras del actual sur de Estados Unidos. Si "Naufragios" posee un inestimable valor etnográfico por sus descripciones de pueblos y costumbres, la crónica alcanza tonos épicos en su narración de hazañas, calamidades y peligros, siendo la experiencia de su autor, como concluye Trinidad Barrera, un verdadero «descenso a los infiernos que sólo una naturaleza superior podía resistir». *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
