About this Item
Description:
xxiv,228,[4]pp. Small quarto. Contemporary calf, spine gilt. Boards rubbed, hinges tender but strong. Quite clean internally. Very good. Third Spanish edition, after the rare first two editions of 1681 and 1682, of Exquemelin's famous book, the classic account of pirates in the Caribbean, on the Spanish Main, and in the South Seas. First published in Amsterdam in 1678 as DE AMERICAENSCHE ZEE- ROOVERS, it next appeared in Cologne in Spanish in 1681. Henry Morgan, who is accused of a number of misdeeds in this book, actually brought a libel suit against the publication which was settled in his favor. The Spanish translation, from which the English translation of 1684 was also made, is quite free and adds considerable content which is not found in the original Dutch version. Rare in the trade.

Encuadernación de tapa dura. Condition: Bien. Dust Jacket Condition: Bien. Julio Vivas (illustrator). Edit. Argos Vergara, S.A., 1984 Barcelona. Biblioteca del Alfil. 8ºM (22x15cm). 235 págs. Cartoné con sobrecubierta ilustrada en buen estado. Sobrecubierta deslucida con cantos rizados. «Un misterioso Doctor de la Buena Maison tradujo en 1686 a un titubeante castellano el libro que con el título de "Bucaneros de América" había publicado en flamenco, en Amsterdam, Jantenhoorn, como relato autobiográfico del cirujano Alexandre O. Exquemelin, el Médico de los piratas, como lo bautizó Alejo Carpentier. Y no hay duda de que se trata de un relato autobiográfico, de unas asombrosas memorias, seguramente apoyadas en detalladísimos diarios y cuadernos de contabilidad de ese extraordinario personaje del que no sabemos más de lo que él cuenta y del que se supone que acabó sus días ejerciendo tranquilamente las artes de Quirón de regreso en Amsterdam de sus aventurescos viajes, a lo largo de los cuales sirvió en las tripulaciones, nada menos, que del Olonés, del mítico Morgan y de Bertrand D'Ogeron. El presente libro es, al mismo tiempo que uno de los más alucinantes reportajes que se han escrito nunca sobre la audacia y la crueldad, un testimonio de curiosidad por el mundo natural y por la antropología cultural que parece en muchos aspectos adelantarse al nivel científico de su siglo.».
