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...

Download or read book Mythical Indies and Columbus s Apocalyptic Letter written by Elizabeth Moore Willingham and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2015-08-01 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With his Letter of 1493 to the court of Spain, Christopher Columbus heralded his first voyage to the present-day Americas, creating visions that seduced the European imagination and birthing a fascination with those "new" lands and their inhabitants that continues today. Columbus's epistolary announcement travelled from country to country in a late-medieval media event -- and the rest, as has been observed, is history. The Letter has long been the object of speculation concerning its authorship and intention: British historian Cecil Jane questions whether Columbus could read and write prior to the first voyage while Demetrio Ramos argues that King Ferdinand and a minister composed the Letter and had it printed in the Spanish folio. The Letter has figured in studies of Spanish Imperialism and of Discovery and Colonial period history, but it also offers insights into Columbus's passions and motives as he reinvents himself and retails his vision of Peter Martyr's Novus orbis to men and women for whom Columbus was as unknown as the places he claimed to have visited. The central feature of the book is its annotated variorum edition of the Spanish Letter, together with an annotated English translation and word and name glossaries. A list of terms from early print-period and manuscript cultures supports those critical discussions. In the context of her text-based reading, the author addresses earlier critical perspectives on the Letter, explores foundational questions about its composition, publication and aims, and proposes a theory of authorship grounded in text, linguistics, discourse, and culture.
