Abstract:
Two are the starting points of this book. On the one hand, the use of Doña
Marina/La Malinche as a symbol of the violation of the Americas by the Spanish
conquerors as well as a metaphor of her treason to the Mexican people. On the
other, the role of the translations of Bartolomé de las Casas’s Brevísima
relación de la destrucción de las Indias in the creation and expansion of the
Spanish Black Legend. The author aims to go beyond them by considering the
role of translators and interpreters during the early colonial period in
Spanish America and by looking at the translations of the Spanish chronicles
as instrumental in the promotion of other European empires. The book discusses
literary, religious and administrative documents and engages in a dialogue
with other disciplines that can provide a more nuanced view of the role of
translation, and of the mediators, during the controversial encounter/clash
between Europeans and Amerindians.
