    Originally titled Historia Verdadera de la Conquista de la Nueva España (The True History of the Conquest of New Spain), this first-person narrative by the military adventurer, conquistador, and settler Bernal Díaz del Castillo (1492-1584) recounts the fall of Aztec Emperor Moctezuma II, the defeat of the Aztec Empire, and his participation in the Spanish military campaigns that brought them about. Díaz served in three Mesoamerican expeditions, that of Francisco Hernández de Córdoba to the Yucatán peninsula (1517); that of Juan de Grijalva (1518), and finally the expedition of Hernán Cortés (1519) in the Valley of Mexico. Amongst chroniclers, Díaz was most celebrated as Daniel Defoe (1660-1731) was amongst novelists.Beyond the sheer adventure and conflict, Díaz del Castillo's work serves as a crucial document for understanding the complexities of Spanish colonization, the clash of civilizations, and the inevitable changes it brought to the New World. His account not only sheds light on the strategic military maneuvers and alliances formed with various indigenous groups but also reflects on the cultural exchanges, misunderstandings, and the human aspects of this epochal period. The Conquest of New Spain stands not just as a testament to the indomitable spirit of the conquerors, but also as a poignant reminder of the worlds that were irrevocably changed in the wake of their ambitions.

    2020 Reprint of the 1963 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Díaz took part in the campaigns against the Mexica, later called the Aztec Empire. He was a highly experienced member of Hernán Cortés's expedition. During this campaign, Díaz spoke frequently with his fellow soldiers about their experiences. These accounts, and especially Díaz's own experiences, served as the basis for the recollections that Díaz later told with great drama to visitors and, eventually, in a book entitled Conquest of New Spain. Therein Díaz describes many of the 119 battles in which he claims to have participated in, culminating in the defeat of the Aztecs in 1521. This work also claims to describe the diverse native peoples living in the territory renamed New Spain by the Spaniards. Bernal Díaz also examines the political rivalries of the Spaniards, and gives accounts of the natives' human sacrifices, cannibalism and idolatry, which he claims he witnessed first-hand, as well as the artistic, cultural, political and intellectual achievements of the Aztecs, including their palaces, market places and beautifully organized botanical and zoological gardens. His account of the Mexica along with that of Cortés are first-person accounts recording important aspects of Mesoamerican culture. His account remains one of the best accounts we have of Mexico at the time of the conquest.Contents: The expedition of Francisco Hernandez de Cordoba -- The expedition of Juan de Grijalva -- The expedition of Hernando Cortez : preparations -- The voyage -- Doa Marina's story -- A pause on the coast -- The stay at Cempoala -- The foundation of Vera Cruz -- The march to Cinggapacinga and return to Cempoala -- Events at Vera Cruz : the destruction of ships -- The Tlascalan campaign -- Peace with Tlascala : embassies from Mexico -- The march to Mexico -- The entrance into Mexico -- The stay in Mexico -- Montezuma's captivity -- Cortez in difficulties -- The flight from Mexico -- Cortes collects fresh strength -- Expeditions around the lake -- The siege and capture of Mexico.

    Der Zusammenprall zweier Kulturwelten - die Chronik eines der folgenreichsten Geschehnisse der frühen NeuzeitDie Eroberung Mexikos und der Untergang der Azteken: Bernal Díaz del Castillo, der sich als Fußsoldat den Truppen des spanischen Konquistadors Hernán Cortés angeschlossen hatte, war Augenzeuge dieses Geschehens. Und er hat der Nachwelt mit seinen Aufzeichnungen eine der zuverlässigsten und informationsreichsten Quellen hinterlassen. Anders als Hernán Cortés in seinen Briefen an Kaiser Karl V. beschönigt Díaz del Castillo nichts: Er schildert anschaulich das grausame Vorgehen mit Kreuz und Schwert gegen die Eingeborenen, berichtet von den Intrigen unter den Spaniern, der Suche nach Schätzen und der ungleichen Aufteilung der Kriegsbeute, dem Unwillen der Soldaten, die sich zu Recht betrogen fühlten und sich dennoch der Faszination durch Cortés nicht entziehen konnten.

    Bernal Diaz sailed to the new world with CortEs, where in less than two years they managed to defeat the Aztec empire. 40 years later Diaz tells the story of the great expedition, exploring the challenges faced and tactics employed by CortEs, the clashing of cultures, and the exploitation of the natives. La Historia verdadera de la conquista de la Nueva EspaNa is, if not entirely reliable, still an important work of literature. It chronicles, as Todorov says, "e;the most amazing event in our history. In the 'discovery' of other continents and other men there is a real feeling of radical strangeness."e; This edition is based on the Guatemalan manuscript.
