El descubrimiento de las Indias, escribió Francisco López de Gómara en 1552, fue "el evento más grande desde la creación del mundo, excepto la Encarnación y Muerte de Aquel que lo creó". Cinco siglos no han disminuido ni la importancia abrumadora ni la extrañeza del encuentro temprano entre europeos y pueblos estadounidenses. Esta colección de ensayos, que abarca historia, crítica literaria, historia del arte y antropología, ofrece un enfoque fresco e innovador para el encuentro trascendental

Stephen Greenblatt is The Class of 1932 Professor of English Literature at the University of California, Berkeley. Two of his publications, Shakespearean Negotiations: The Circulation of Social Energy in Renaissance England and Representing the English Renaissance (of which he is the editor) are available in paperback from California. His most recent book is Marvelous Possessions: The Wonder of the New World (1991).
"Refreshing and gratifying. . . . The epics of the Pueblos' resistance, the Aztec poetry before and after the conquest, and the ritual of toqui oncoy show the complexity of the means for survival developed throughout the Americas, from New Mexico to the Andes."--Jaime Concha, University of California, San Diego
"Many of these essays form the cutting edge of scholarship on the expansion of Europe and its cultural consequences. Visual evidence, much of it unfamiliar, is deftly integrated into the textual analysis. . . . This work is so solid, so elegantly presented, and at the same time so innovative that the book should attract considerable attention and remain in use for a long time."--Anthony Grafton, author of Defenders of the Text

Soft Cover. Condición: Fine-. 344 pages, illustrated in b&w. In this book "The American peoples have lost the transparency of allegory and gained the density of historical subjects struggling to come to terms with people from a perplexingly different culture. As these essays powerfully show, at the moment that Europeans embanked on one of the greatest enterprises of appetite, acquisition, and control in the history of the world, their own discourses became haunted by all that they could not control."
