About
"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. This allows significant reassessments of the early modern Atlantic world's perception of the Americas."--BOOK JACKET.
