El verdadero descubridor de los Estados Unidos fue un individuo que se lanzó a la caminata más colosal que mente humana ha concebido. Lo hizo a pie, desnudo casi como un nativo americano, sin evangelios ni catecismos... Así fue como Alvar Núñez de Vaca atravesó lo desconocido, desde Florida a Texas para luego descender hasta Ciudad de México. Abel Posse cierra el círculo de su particular Trilogía del Descubrimiento con una obra que es mucho más que una autobiografía novelada ofrecida en una magistral serie de flashbacks; es una lectura honda y descarnada de la visión de la llegada de los europeos al Nuevo Mundo de un aventurero que llegó a ser nombrado Adelantado y gobernador del Río de la Plata para luego luchar contra la poligamia y la esclavitud de los indios en Paraguay. Núñez de Vaca acabó sus años arruinado, que no vencido, en Sevilla, donde Posse sitúa el origen de una narración de un viejo soñador que todavía quiere creer en el poder de la fe y la bondad. Un día atraca en Sevilla del siglo XV un barco cargado con esclavos americanos, entre los que encuentra a su hijo Amadís. Este suceso vuelve a conectarle con su pasado y desencadena un relato con un dramático y asombroso desenlace. El autor exhibe un soberbio dominio del tono intimista para alguien cuyo epitafio firmó el propio inca Garcilaso: "Murió en Valladolid, apelando al Consejo de Indias, con el propósito de ver restablecido su honor y sus bienes que le fueron confiscados cuando fue apresado en Asunción".

"The fictionalized explorers and conquistadors represented in this corpus all identify with certain aspects of Amerindian culture - significantly, those elements that are most distinct from European culture, such as cannibalism and human sacrifice - but also feel the need to distance themselves from these "others" in order to protect their own European cultural identity. In most cases, the conquistadors themselves are represented as outsiders within the enterprise of imperialism, due to ethnic, religious, or sexual differences from the norm. This representation turns the gaze inward toward the "other" within European culture, underscoring the complex origins of Latin American cultures in the violent encounter between the Amerindians and the conquistadors." "By examining these issues, Lopez's Latin American Novels of the Conquest illuminates the ways in which Latin American novelists used their literary imaginations to embody their ambivalence regarding their own transcultural heritage as children of both the colonized and the colonizer."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

He demonstrates how these novelists use major and marginal figures to reflect upon the ways that institutional powers invoke episodes from the discovery and conquest to legitimate the present, and also to critique the recent historical past, especially in the case of Uruguay and Argentina, which endured military dictatorships in the 1970s and 1980s."--Jacket.

This collection of essays offers alternative readings of historical and literary texts produced during Latin America's colonial period. By considering the political and ideological implications of the texts' interpretation yesterday and today, it attempts to "decolonize" the field of Latin American studies and promote an ethical, interdisciplinary practice that does not falsify or appropriate knowledge produced by both the colonial subjects of the past and the oppressed subjects of the present. Using recent developments in postcolonial theory, the contributors challenge traditional approaches to Hispanism. The colonial situation under which these texts were composed, with all its injustices and prejudices, still lingers, and most studies have consistently avoided the connection between this colonial legacy and the situation of disenfranchised groups today. Colonialism Past and Present challenges discursive strategies that celebrate only European cultural traits, dismiss non-European cultural legacies, and solidify constructions of national projects considered natural extensions of European civilization since independence from Spain.

When the Europeans first arrived in America, they had a number of preconceptions, prejudices, expectations and hopes about what life in the New World would be like. This book examines the different visions and representations of America conveyed in the writings of Spanish conquistador Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca and the Pilgrim leader William Bradford, taking both writers within their respective literary and historical contexts. Anthologies of American literature have consistently ignored Spanish-language achievements on the grounds of a restrictive interpretation of American literature based on linguistic boundaries. Consequently, Spanish-language texts such as Cabeza de Vaca's or the account by the Hidalgo de Elvas, to name but two examples, have been marginalized in the narrative of American literary history. In seeking to redress this neglect, Galisteo contributes to scholarship which seeks to analyze Early America as a whole, including not only Anglo American perspectives but also the Spanish American aspect of the colonization process.
