Popis: | The age of Humanism revived the notion of varietas and established it as a generating force of thought and literature. It is therefore necessary to examine the role of varietas in the intellectual conception of the New World, both in Europe and the recently discovered territories. This article studies a specfic case, that of the Miscelánea Antártica of Miguel Cabello Valboa. It sets out to show how this author makes a double use of the principle of varietas in order to place the reader, both local as well as Spanish, within the context of American themes and of native history. However, his principal goal is that of incorporating American indigenous history into the mainstream of Universal History. |
