Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This fascinating work meticulously chronicles the development of the Latin version of the letter penned by Christopher Columbus upon his return from his historic voyage to the New World in 1493, the first of four that would irrevocably alter the course of Western Civilization. A seminal moment in the annals of human history, this initial letter, known as the Epistola, was then distributed far and wide, fanning the flames of exploration and conquest, which would soon sweep like wildfire across the globe. The author meticulously traces the evolution of the Latin text, from its initial publication in Rome to its subsequent dissemination in Spanish, French, German, Italian, and English, providing an in-depth examination of the various editions and their historical significance. This comprehensive study sheds new light on the profound impact of Columbus's discovery, not only on the political and economic landscape of the time but also on the broader intellectual and cultural currents that shaped the Renaissance and beyond.
