Cervantes, the Novel, and the New World

Auteur: Wilson, Diana de Armas (Professor of English and Renaissance Studies)
Editeur: Oxford University Press
This book links the rise of the novel in imperial Spain to the birth of America in the European consciousness. Moving beyond an inventory of Cervantes's (1547-1616) references to the Indies - to Mexico, and Peru, cannibals and tobacco, parrots and alligators - this study interprets his novels as a cross-cultural achievement that ridicules the conquistador mentality.
