Este libro reúne las aportaciones de un grupo de especialistas provenientes de campos que van de la Historia y la Antropología a la Historia de las ideas políticas y la Filosofía, para analizar en clave comparativa la conquista y colonizacion de America del Norte y del Sur y la de Çfrica. Los estudios abarcan desde el siglo XVI al presente; incluyen la mirada de misioneros y viajeros y la de teoricos y politicos; los protagonizan los que nunca pisaron aquellas tierras o los que, en contacto con ellas, quisieron decir, influir o decidir sobre lo que debian ser, hacer o hacerse con sus habitantes; recogen el pensamiento de autoctonos y el de extraños a aquellos mundos; prestan atencion a textos filosoficos, literarios e historicos, documentos diplomaticos y cartas privadas; y, por no agotar la enumeracion, aluden tambien a formas expresivas tan diversas como la escritura, las imagenes o el cine.A traves de esta diversidad de medios hemos querido continuar la tarea iniciada en dos libros anteriores publicados en esta misma coleccion (F. Castilla Urbano (ed.), Discursos legitimadores de la conquista y la colonizacion de America, 2014, y F. Castilla Urbano (ed.), Visiones de la conquista y la colonizacion de las Americas, 2015), y seguir prestando atencion a los procesos de conqui

The True Story and Description of a Country of Naked, Ferocious and Anthopophage Savages Situated in the New World America was one of the most published books about the New World during the XVI Century. The story of young Hans Stadens adventure, his captivity among the tupinamba tribe in ancient Brazil, contains all the elements of the then emerging travel literature that nurtured the old worlds dreams about the exotic. And better yet, it benefits from its own authenticity by stemming from the authors direct observation. Staden writes about his adventure, but while doing so he also offers first hand ethnographical data of great value. The most attractive, while at the same time most repulsive, for the European readers is, undoubtedly, the description of the blood soaked anthropophagic rituals, that exerted a visible fascination on the civilized audience. The Brazilian Spectacle, depicted in the wood etchings of the 1547 edition, was transformed into full color pictures by the engraver editor Theodore de Bry. The evoking of such a different cultural universe makes one ponder about the paradox of human nature
