Book Brevisima Relacion de La Destruccion de Las Indias

Download or read book Brevisima Relacion de La Destruccion de Las Indias written by Fray Bartolomé de las Casas and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-09-13 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Brevísima relación fue escrita por fray Bartolomé de las Casas y dedicada al príncipe Felipe -quien fue posteriormente el rey Felipe II de España-, encargado por el rey Carlos V, su padre, de los asuntos de Indias por aquel tiempo. Con su obra, las Casas quiso que el futuro rey de España conociera las injusticias que cometían los españoles en América.Hacia 1539, las Casas comenzó en México la redacción de la Destrucción de las Indias. En 1542, estando en España, acabó una primera redacción. Un resumen de la obra parece ser que le fue leído al rey Carlos I y luego públicamente en la Comisión de Valladolid que dieron lugar a las Leyes Nuevas. En 1546, tras el fracaso de dichas leyes, añadió algún comentario más.Después, en 1547 la aumentó con algunos párrafos e intentó imprimir una versión muy retocada usando el seudónimo: Istoria sumaria y relación brevísima y verdadera de lo que vio y escribió el reverendo padre fray Bartolomé de la Peña. En 1552, imprimió en Sevilla, en la imprenta de Sebastián Trugillo y sin pasarla por censura previa la versión primera, de nuevo ampliada con información reciente: Brevísima relación de la destrucción de las Indias. De la primera Brevísima se conserva un manuscrito hológrafo en el Archivo Histórico de la Provincia de los Dominicos de Aragón, en Valencia.Las Casas no tuvo consecuencias por haber publicado la Brevísima. La obra no fue recogida hasta la cédula real del 21 de septiembre de 1556 (que no la cita específicamente). Este libro no fue censurado en España y pudo circular libremente, tal vez por el respeto que la corona española tenía respecto de su autor.

Book A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies

Download or read book A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies written by Bartolomé de las Casas and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Spanish friar documents the brutal treatment of Caribbean natives at the hands of colonial authorities in the sixteenth century. After traveling to the New World, Dominican friar Bartolomé de Las Casas witnessed conquistadors wreak unimaginable horrors upon the Indigenous people of the Caribbean. He later dedicated his life to fighting for their protection. Following numerous failed attempts to reason with authorities in Spain, he chose to document everything he had seen over a span of fifty years and to give it to Spain’s Prince Philip II. In A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies, Las Casas catalogues the atrocities he observed the Spanish colonial authorities inflict upon the native people. He discusses the brutal torture, mass genocide, and enslavement. He passionately pleas for an end to this treatment and for the native peoples to be given basic human rights.

Book Key Cultural Texts in Translation

Download or read book Key Cultural Texts in Translation written by Kirsten Malmkjær and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the context of increased movement across borders, this book examines how key cultural texts and concepts are transferred between nations and languages as well as across different media. The texts examined in this book are considered fundamental to their source culture and can also take on a particular relevance to other (target) cultures. The chapters investigate cultural transfers and differences realised through translation and reflect critically upon the implications of these with regard to matters of cultural identity. The book offers an important contribution to cultural approaches in translation studies, with ramifications across different disciplines, including literary studies, history, philosophy, and gender studies. The chapters offer a range of cultural and methodological frameworks and are written by scholars from a variety of language and cultural backgrounds, Western and Eastern.

Book Translation and Epistemicide

Download or read book Translation and Epistemicide written by Joshua Martin Price and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2023-01-03 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Translation has facilitated colonialism from the fifteenth century to the present day. Epistemicide, which involves destroying, marginalizing, or banishing Indigenous, subaltern, and counter-hegemonic knowledges, is one result. In the Americas, it is a racializing process. But in the hands of subaltern translators and interpreters, translation has also been used as a decolonial method. The book gives an account of translation-as-epistemicide in the Americas, drawing on a range of examples from the early colonial period to the War on Terror. The first chapters demonstrate four distinct operations of epistemicide: the commensuration of worlds, the epistemic marginalization of subaltern translators and the knowledge they produce, the criminalization of translators and interpreters, and translation as piracy or extractivism. The second part of the book outlines decolonial translation strategies, including an epistemic posture the author calls “bewilderment.” Translation and Epistemicide tracks how through the centuries translation practices have enabled colonialism and resulted in epistemicide, or the destruction of Indigenous and subaltern knowledge.

Book The Politics of Decolonial Investigations

Download or read book The Politics of Decolonial Investigations written by Walter D. Mignolo and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2021-07-09 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Politics of Decolonial Investigations Walter D. Mignolo provides a sweeping examination of how coloniality has operated around the world in its myriad forms from the sixteenth century to the twenty-first. Decolonial border thinking allows Mignolo to outline how the combination of the self-fashioned narratives of Western civilization and the hegemony of Eurocentric thought served to eradicate all knowledges in non-European languages and praxes of living and being. Mignolo also traces the geopolitical origins of racialized and gendered classifications, modernity, globalization, and cosmopolitanism, placing them all within the framework of coloniality. Drawing on the work of theorists and decolonial practitioners from the Global South and the Global East, Mignolo shows how coloniality has provoked the emergence of decolonial politics initiated by delinking from all forms of Western knowledge and subjectivities. The urgent task, Mignolo stresses, is the epistemic reconstitution of categories of thought and praxes of living destituted in the very process of building Western civilization and the idea of modernity. The overcoming of the long-lasting hegemony of the West and its distorted legacies is already underway in all areas of human existence. Mignolo underscores the relevance of the politics of decolonial investigations, in and outside the academy, to liberate ourselves from canonized knowledge, ways of knowing, and praxes of living.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Brevísima relación de la destrucción de las Indias es un libro escrito por el dominico español Bartolomé de las Casas a mediados del siglo XVI.

Mucho es lo que se ha dicho acerca de Bartolomé de las Casas, a quienes ocasionalmente los mismos defensores de los indios como Motolinía llegaron a calificar de loco y soberbio. Su obra fue utilizada para alimentar lo que se ha llamado la leyenda negra española.
