Book excerpt: "This book examines how the entity called "Peru" gradually came into being, and how the narratives that defined it evolved over time. It is an account of Peruvian historiography, one that makes a contribution not only to Latin American studies but also to the history of historical thought at large. The book traces the contributions of key historians of Peru, from the colonial period through the present, and teases out the theoretical underpinnings of their approaches. It demonstrates how Peruvian historical thought critiques both European history and Anglophone postcolonial theory. And this book's readings of Peru's most influential historians, from Inca Garcilaso de la Vega to Jorge Basadre, are subtle and powerful. This book examines the development of Peruvian historical thought from its misty colonial origins in the sixteenth century up to the present day. It demonstrates that the concept of "Peru" is both a strange and enlightening invention of the modern colonial imagination, an invention that lives on today as a postcolonial wager on a democratic political future that can only be imagined in its own historicist terms, not those of European or Western history."--Descripción del editor.

This book was released on 2006-10-01 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its vivid language and bold strokes, the magnificent History of the Conquest of Peru, first published in 1847, is one of historian William Prescott's landmark works. A masterly study of Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro's overthrow of the Inca Empire, this astonishing chronicle is considered a classic of Latin American history. Noted for its striking portrayal of the Spanish character, the book rings with a "fusion of courage, cruelty, pride, and gallows humor," says Darnell. "We seem to be overhearing dialogue and observing firsthand the interaction between the Spaniards as they struggle for control of an empire." He hails this as "an immensely readable history." Also available from Cosimo Classics: History of the Conquest of Mexico, Prescott's companion volume about Corts's subjugation of the Aztecs. Historian, writer, and scholar WILLIAM HICKLING PRESCOTT (1796-1859) was born in Salem, Massachusetts. A regular contributor to the prestigious Boston literary journal North American Review, he also authored numerous books of history, including 1837's The History of the Reign of Ferdinand and Isabella the Catholic, a critical and popular success in both America and Europe.
