| Abstract
|
:
|
"Jonathan Hart has three main goals in this text: to show the rhetorical complexity of texts of travel as well as the importance of their depictions for Spain, France, and England; to present the ambivalent and contradictory responses of France and England to Spain over the period; and to demonstrate the importance of translations in both disseminating and shaping knowledge surrounding the colonizing of the New World. By combining three major cultural traditions - France, England, and Spain - he reveals fascinating interactions between the way the New World was represented in writing, and he makes substantial contributions to our understanding of the political and social context of these writings.
