Cristóbal Colón - Rumbo a Cipango (Christopher Columbus) - 'Bound for Cipango' 2002 575 pages (Published by Edhasa) |
|
 |
The name of Christopher Columbus will always be linked to one of the most important events in history: The discovery of America. However, in the many books written about him, little is said about him as a person. His life and fears, his problems with the political powers of both, Spain and Portugal, his intellect or family life are set out in this book. Edward Rosset provides a view of his virtues and flaws in this rigorous and exhaustive novel. |

'Malinche' (Hernan Cortes) 2004 Published by Edhasa 640 pages HERNÁN CORTÉS (1485-1547) es quizás el más importante de los conquistadores españoles de todos los tiempos, y su periplo por América una aventura extraordinaria y fascinante. Descubridor audaz e ingenioso en una época de grandes héroes, fue el único que llegó a conocer a fondo a los indígenas americanos, hasta el punto de tomar por esposa a una de ellas (Malitzin, Mallinali o Malinche), y convertirla en una traductora de gran valor estratégico. El célebre episodio que le llevó a quemar sus naves para evitar deserciones ha pasado a formar parte del imaginario colectivo y le ha valido un lugar de honor en la historia, pero sucesos como la no menos recordada Noche Triste le convierten en un personaje polémico y tremendamente controvertido. El vigoroso pulso narrativo, el acertado y sabroso empleo del diálogo y la profundidad psicológica que la crítica ha destacado en la obra de Edward Rosset se ponen en esta ocasión al servicio de un hombre sin duda fascinante que, en cualquier caso, luchó con denuedo contra la adversidad.
