This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La conquista de América fue un viaje hacia lo desconocido, en el camino aparecieron numerosas leyendas que arrastraron a hombres valientes y ambiciosos unas veces a la gloria y otras a la muerte. El hombre tiende siempre a inventar utopías y a perseguir quimeras, ya desde la antigüedad territorios como la Atlántida o las Islas Afortunadas, habían sido visitadas por viajeros que traían descripciones de animales increíbles y tesoros infinitos, otro tanto pasaba con regiones como la India de la que se contaban también numerosas leyendas fantásticas que fueron confirmadas, en algunos casos, por hombres que estuvieron allí, las tropas de Alejandro Magno por ejemplo. La leyenda de El Dorado y otros mitos del descubrimiento de América nos traslada ese impulso humano que inventa territorios y los busca incansablemente, a través de un riguroso análisis histórico de las expediciones que se lanzaron a lo desconocido en busca de la gloria. Christian Kupchik arranca su libro exponiendo brevemente las utopías que han existido en la antigüedad, desde las crónicas grecorromanas hasta las descripciones bíblicas, con el objetivo de cotejar cómo esas leyendas se trasladan a la conquista de América. La fuente de la eterna juventud, las amazonas, las siete ciudades encantadas, los gigantes de la Patagonia, los caribes o El Dorado, tienen sus correspondientes leyendas antiguas o medievales. Desde ahí, nos detallará el autor el origen de la leyenda de El Dorado, basado en un ritual de los indios Chibchas, en Colombia, que consistía en cubrir a su príncipe de oro y arrojarlo a la laguna Guatavita mientras los caciques lanzaban oro y esmeraldas para apaciguar al dragón que vivía en dicha laguna. Este ritual dio origen a una fiebre del oro de la que participarían los banqueros de la casa Welter, Diego de Orgaz o Diego de Quesada que llegará a la laguna y volverá con 250.000 pesos de oro más pero con 2.500 hombres menos en su expedición.
