Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La carta de Colón anunciando el descubrimiento da testimonio de su llegada al nuevo mundo. El viaje de Cristóbal Colón no fue difícil, aunque hubo varios motines entre la tripulación. El 3 de agosto de 1492, el almirante Cristóbal Colón zarpó con las tres carabelas del puerto de Palos en Andalucía. El 12 de octubre de 1492 el vigía Rodrigo Sánchez de Triana, divisó tierra. A lo largo de un texto breve Cristóbal Colón plasmó, en un relato original, ágil, sorprendente y ameno, la descripción de las tierras y de las gentes que había hallado en la otra orilla del océano Atlántico. Colón da noticia de su viaje y la duración y del encuentro con islas habitadas. Relata cómo son esas islas, los árboles, montañas y riquezas encontradas. Especifica detalles del clima y señala su comprensión de los habitantes del lugar. Así como sus hábitos, vestido, tipos de armas, la religión e incluso se maravilla ante la ingenuidad de estos o el peligro que representan los Caribes, dadas sus costumbres caníbales. El documento enumera también las primeras islas visitadas, dando solo sus nombres: Guanaham ( Guanahanin en la carta en latín), rebautizada San Salvador; Santa María de Concepción; Ferrandina ( Fernandina en la versión en latín) e isla Bella (corregido a Isabela en la traducción latina). La quinta isla mencionada es Cuba, a la que Colón llamó Juana, cuya exploración se narra más detalladamente. La última isla descubierta es La Española, también llamada actualmente isla de Santo Domingo. A su llegada a España fue recibido con honores y exhibió las riquezas que traía. Afirmó haber alcanzado China y varias islas de la costa oriental de Asia. Su objetivo era llegar al fantástico oriente que había conocido a través de las descripciones de Marco Polo, ganando espacio. Pretendía darle la vuelta al mundo por el lado contrario, sin saber que lo que encontraría era todo un continente nuevo.

Book Synopsis An Account of the Antiquities of the Indians by : Fray Ramon Pané
Download or read book An Account of the Antiquities of the Indians written by Fray Ramon Pané and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 1999-11-15 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accompanying Columbus on his second voyage to the New World in 1494 was a young Spanish friar named Ramón Pané. The friar’s assignment was to live among the “Indians” whom Columbus had “discovered” on the island of Hispaniola (today the island shared by Haiti and the Dominican Republic), to learn their language, and to write a record of their lives and beliefs. While the culture of these indigenous people—who came to be known as the Taíno—is now extinct, the written record completed by Pané around 1498 has survived. This volume makes Pané’s landmark Account—the first book written in a European language on American soil—available in an annotated English edition. Edited by the noted Hispanist José Juan Arrom, Pané’s report is the only surviving direct source of information about the myths, ceremonies, and lives of the New World inhabitants whom Columbus first encountered. The friar’s text contains many linguistic and cultural observations, including descriptions of the Taíno people’s healing rituals and their beliefs about their souls after death. Pané provides the first known description of the use of the hallucinogen cohoba, and he recounts the use of idols in ritual ceremonies. The names, functions, and attributes of native gods; the mythological origin of the aboriginal people’s attitudes toward sex and gender; and their rich stories of creation are described as well.
Book Synopsis Firsting in the Early-Modern Atlantic World by : Lauren Beck
Download or read book Firsting in the Early-Modern Atlantic World written by Lauren Beck and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-20 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, historians have narrated the arrival of Europeans using terminology (discovery, invasion, conquest, and colonization) that emphasizes their agency and disempowers that of Native Americans. This book explores firsting, a discourse that privileges European and settler-colonial presence, movements, knowledges, and experiences as a technology of colonization in the early modern Atlantic world, 1492-1900. It exposes how textual culture has ensured that Euro-settlers dominate Native Americans, while detailing misrepresentations of Indigenous peoples as unmodern and proposing how the western world can be un-firsted in scholarship on this time and place.

Book Synopsis A History of Literature in the Caribbean by : A. James Arnold
Download or read book A History of Literature in the Caribbean written by A. James Arnold and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1997-08-15 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cross-Cultural Studies is the culminating effort of a distinguished team of international scholars who have worked since the mid-1980s to create the most complete analysis of Caribbean literature ever undertaken. Conceived as a major contribution to postcolonial studies, cultural studies, cultural anthropology, and regional studies of the Caribbean and the Americas, Cross-Cultural Studies illuminates the interrelations between and among Europe, the Caribbean islands, Africa, and the American continents from the late fifteenth century to the present. Scholars from five continents bring to bear on the most salient issues of Caribbean literature theoretical and critical positions that are currently in the forefront of discussion in literature, the arts, and public policy. Among the major issues treated at length in Cross-Cultural Studies are: The history and construction of racial inequality in Caribbean colonization; The origins and formation of literatures in various Creoles; The gendered literary representation of the Caribbean region; The political and ideological appropriation of Caribbean history in creating the idea of national culture in North and South America, Europe, and Africa; The role of the Caribbean in contemporary theories of Modernism and the Postmodern; The decentering of such canonical authors as Shakespeare; The vexed but inevitable connectedness of Caribbean literature with both its former colonial metropoles and its geographical neighbors. Contributions to Cross-Cultural Studies give a concrete cultural and historical analysis of such contemporary critical terms as hybridity, transculturation, and the carnivalesque, which have so often been taken out of context and employed in narrowly ideological contexts. Two important theories of the simultaneous unity and diversity of Caribbean literature and culture, propounded by Antonio Benítez-Rojo and +douard Glissant, receive extended treatment that places them strategically in the debate over multiculturalism in postcolonial societies and in the context of chaos theory. A contribution by Benítez-Rojo permits the reader to test the theory through his critical practice. Divided into nine thematic and methodological sections followed by a complete index to the names and dates of authors and significant historical figures discussed, Cross-Cultural Studies will be an indispensable resource for every library and a necessary handbook for scholars, teachers, and advanced students of the Caribbean region.
Book Synopsis Postcolonialisms by : Gaurav Gajanan Desai
Download or read book Postcolonialisms written by Gaurav Gajanan Desai and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canonical articles, most unexcerpted, explore postcolonialism's key themes--power and knowledge--while articles by contemporary scholars expand the discipline to include discussions of the discovery of the New World, Native American and indigenous identities in Latin America and the Pacific, settler colonies in Africa and Australia, English colonialism in Ireland, and feminism in Nigeria and Egypt. The inclusion of a broad sampling of histories and theories attests to multiple, even competing postcolonialisms, while the skillful organization of the volume provides a useful map of the field in terms of recognizable patterns, shared family resemblances, and common genealogies.
