Excerpt: ... amerigo vespucci letter to piero soderini. introduction The Problem Amerigo Vespucci is the most enigmatic figure in the history of American exploration. Almost immediately after his death critics began to impugn his veracity, and brand him as an impostor; and these attacks persist to the present day. Another school of historians took up the cudgels in his behalf, seeking to justify his statements and vindicate his reputation. Many other writers, feeling that truth usually lies somewhere between two such divergent attitudes, prejudiced neither for nor against Vespucci, eager only to arrive at the truth, have displayed the utmost ingenuity in attempting to solve the various historical cruces which abound in the writings of the Florentine navigator. If at the present day little progress has been made toward the definitive solution of many of these points, the reason is plain. The philologist no less than the historian is puzzled by the Vespucci "Letters"; yet no philologist has ever seriously grappled with the problems in them. Vespucci's writings have had a strange and complicated history. They have suffered at the hands of translators, copyists, printers, and even, it is to be feared, at those of modern editors. The texts on which we base our judgments are vastly different from those which left the author's hand. The extant versions of these must be critically examined, collated and classified; critical texts must be established before historians can hope to form accurate judgments based upon The Soderini Letter Introduction Vespucci's writings. The critical study of these texts is therefore our immediate problem. Lest this judgment should appear arrogant, it is well to indicate that such a study has long been a recognizedneed among...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amerigo Vespucci was an Italian explorer, navigator and cartographer who first demonstrated that Brazil and the West Indies did not represent Asia's eastern outskirts as initially conjectured from Columbus' voyages, but instead constituted an entirely separate landmass hitherto unknown to Europeans. Colloquially named the New World, this second super continent came to be known as "Americas", deriving its name from Americus, the Latin transcription of Vespucci's first name. Learn more about the man who gave his name to the new continent, read his personal letters, diaries and what his contemporaries wrote about him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1967. This volume looks at the voyages of Americo Vespucio, to use the Spanish form of the name Amerigo Vespucci, who sailed to the West under the Spanish flag in 1499 and again in 1501 when he sailed to gain geographical information for the King of Portugal who like the King of Spain had been confused by the contradictory reports of Columbus. Columbus to his death believed that he had landed in Asia and not the Americas. Americo discovered the Amazon and the Para Rivers and explored over 6000 miles of continuous shoreline between Venezuela, which he named and a harbour about fifty degrees south on the coast of Argentina. In 1502 he presented 'proof' of the existence of the 'New World'. Americo crossed the Atlantic Ocean and found out and reported what was really there, naming the continent America from the Latin version of his name.
