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.

This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Brevísima relación de la destrucción de las Indias", escrito por Fray Bartolomé de Las Casas, es en sí una denuncia dura y severa de las matanzas, crueldades y todo tipo de abusos cometidos en América por los conquistadores. La obra es un relato de todos los ultrajes que se cometieron en esos años con el objeto de darlo a conocer al monarca Español de la época. En el relato Fray Barlomé le explica al príncipe Felipe los males, perdiciones y daños producidos en todos los reinos del nuevo mundo de las Indias. El objetivo que fray Bartolomé de las Casas plasma en el texto es el de la deformidad de la injusticia, la destrucción que se produjo sin ninguna causa que lo justifique y solo llevados por la codicia y la ambición. Va narrando las atrocidades cometidas durante la conquista en todos los lugares. Como dejan despobladas las Islas de Cuba y de los Lucayos, las 30 islas de la comarca de Sant Juan, como se actuaba en los 5 reinos de las Islas Españolas, la Isla de San Juan, Jamaica e Nicaragua. Brevísima Relación de la destrucción de las Indias es una lectura que nos hace reflexionar sobre la verdadera naturaleza del ser humano.

This book was released on 2003-09-15 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty years after the arrival of Columbus, at the height of Spain's conquest of the West Indies, Spanish bishop and colonist Bartolomé de Las Casas dedicated his Brevísima Relación de la Destruición de las Indias to Philip II of Spain. An impassioned plea on behalf of the native peoples of the West Indies, the Brevísima Relación catalogues in horrific detail atrocities it attributes to the king’s colonists in the New World. The result is a withering indictment of the conquerors that has cast a 500-year shadow over the subsequent history of that world and the European colonization of it.

This book was released on 2020-05-08 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Brevísima relación de la destrucción de las Indias es un libro publicado en 1552 por el fraile dominico español Bartolomé de las Casas, principal defensor de los indígenas en América durante el siglo XVI, en el que denunció el efecto que tuvo para los naturales la colonización del Nuevo Mundo por España. Bartolomé de Las Casas llegó a las Antillas durante los primeros años de la colonización española. Habiendo sido encomendero, a los pocos años decidió tomar los hábitos dominicos y paradójicamente se convirtió en uno de los acérrimos defensores de los derechos de los amerindios. El padre Las Casas había sido testigo —y participante también— de la catástrofe demográfica que condujo a la desaparición de los taínos, los guanahatabeyes y los caribes. El argumento principal de la obra gira entorno a todo lo ocurrido en las Indias, desde lo maravilloso de su descubrimiento hasta lo penoso de las matanzas y estragos que realizaron los españoles sobre gentes inocentes. El objetivo que fray Bartolomé de las Casas plasma en el texto es el de la deformidad de la injusticia, la destrucción que se produjo sin ninguna causa que lo justifique y solo llevados por la codicia y la ambición. Va narrando las atrocidades cometidas durante la conquista en todos los lugares. Las Casas está convencido de dos cosas: que la libertad humana es, después de la vida, la cosa más preciosa y estimable del mundo; y que la esclavitud va contra la ley natural porque atenta a la libertad, que la conquista y la guerra hecha contra los indios les ha quitado.

Como su nombre indica, se trata de un texto en el que el fraile se propone denunciar los destructivos efectos que tuvo para los pueblos indígenas de América la temprana colonización española. 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.

Book excerpt: "Life is a Dream," a work by Pedro Calderón de la Barca, is centered on issues of freedom and predestination. The play unfolds around Segismundo, Prince of Poland, imprisoned since birth by his father, King Basilio, due to a prophecy predicting the ruin of the kingdom under his rule. When Basilio decides to test fate by releasing Segismundo, the plot explores the consequences of this decision. The narrative addresses Segismundo's internal struggle with his destiny and the nature of reality, questioning whether life is a dream from which one can awaken. Other characters, such as Rosaura and Astolfo, weave subplots that interconnect personal desires and social duties, reflecting on justice, honor, and love. Set in a context that blends elements of drama, philosophy, and politics, the play investigates the complexity of the human condition, the ethics of leadership, and the power of repentance and personal transformation. With a structure that includes intrigue, plot twists, and reflections on being and seeming, "Life is a Dream" invites the audience to ponder freedom and determinism.

Download or read book Rereading the Black Legend written by Margaret R. Greer and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phrase “The Black Legend” was coined in 1912 by a Spanish journalist in protest of the characterization of Spain by other Europeans as a backward country defined by ignorance, superstition, and religious fanaticism, whose history could never recover from the black mark of its violent conquest of the Americas. Challenging this stereotype, Rereading the Black Legend contextualizes Spain’s uniquely tarnished reputation by exposing the colonial efforts of other nations whose interests were served by propagating the “Black Legend.” A distinguished group of contributors here examine early modern imperialisms including the Ottomans in Eastern Europe, the Portuguese in East India, and the cases of Mughal India and China, to historicize the charge of unique Spanish brutality in encounters with indigenous peoples during the Age of Exploration. The geographic reach and linguistic breadth of this ambitious collection will make it a valuable resource for any discussion of race, national identity, and religious belief in the European Renaissance.
Download or read book Cognitive Approaches to Early Modern Spanish Literature written by Isabel Jaén and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive Approaches to Early Modern Spanish Literature is the first anthology exploring human cognition and literature in the context of early modern Spanish culture. It includes the leading voices in the field, along with the main themes and directions that this important area of study has been producing. The book begins with an overview of the cognitive literary studies research that has been taking place within early modern Spanish studies over the last fifteen years. Next, it traces the creation of self in the context of the novel, focusing on Cervantes's Don Quixote in relation to the notions of embodiment and autopoiesis as well as the faculties of memory and imagination as understood in early modernity. It continues to explore the concept of embodiment, showing its relevance to delve into the mechanics of the interaction between actors and audience both in the jongleuresque and the comedia traditions. It then centers on cognitive theories of perception, the psychology of immersion in fictional worlds, and early modern and modern-day notions of intentionality to discuss the role of perceiving and understanding others in performance, Don Quixote, and courtly conduct manuals. The last section focuses on the affective dimension of audience-performer interactions in the theatrical space of the Spanish corrales and how emotion and empathy can inform new approaches to presenting Las Casas's work in the literature classroom. The volume closes with an afterword offering strategies to design a course on mind and literature in early modernity.
