The book offers a novel interpretation of the relationship between Castellanos's poems and Alonso de Ercilla's the Araucana and elucidates the complex poetic discourse Castellanos created to defend the interest of the first generation of Spanish explorers and conquistadors that settled in the New World in the sixteenth century.Spanish American literatureTo 1800History and criticismLatin AmericaIn literatureSpanish American literatureHistory and criticism.861/.3Martinez-Osorio Emiro1576855MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910798174803321Authority, piracy, and captivity in colonial Spanish American writing3854977UNINA
