Beskrivelse af Hernando Cortez (1901)
Hernando Cortez is a historical biography written by John Stevens Cabot Abbott in 1901. The book chronicles the life of Hernando Cortez, a Spanish conquistador who is best known for his conquest of the Aztec Empire in Mexico. The book begins with Cortez's early life in Spain, where he was born into a noble family. It then follows his journey to the New World, where he became a soldier and explorer.The book describes in detail Cortez's expedition to Mexico, which began in 1519. It covers his encounters with the Aztecs, including his meeting with their leader, Montezuma. The book also delves into the relationships between the Spanish and the indigenous peoples of Mexico, as well as the political and social climate of the time.Throughout the book, Abbott provides insights into Cortez's character and motivations. He portrays Cortez as a complex figure who was both ambitious and ruthless, but also deeply religious and devoted to his country. The book also explores the impact of Cortez's conquest on Mexico and its people, including the destruction of the Aztec civilization and the introduction of Christianity.Overall, Hernando Cortez is a comprehensive and engaging account of one of the most significant events in the history of the New World. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of a legendary figure and sheds light on the complex and often brutal nature of colonialism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
