Victors and Vanquished : Spanish and Nahua Views of the Conquest of Mexico Paperback / softback
by Na Na
Part of the The Bedford Series in History and Culture series
Paperback / softback
Description
Using excerpts primarily drawn from Bernal Diaz's 1632 account of the Spanish victory and from testimonies - many recently uncovered - of indigenous Nahua survivors gathered by Bernardino de Sahagun, Victors and Vanquished clearly demonstrates how personal interests, class and ethnic biases, and political considerations can influence interpretation of events.
A substantial introduction is followed by 9 chronological sections that illuminate the major events and personalities in this powerful historical episode and reveal the changing attitudes toward European expansionism.
