Omschrijving

The Tears of the Indians is a historical account written by Bartolome De Las Casas in 1656. The book offers a true and detailed description of the cruel massacres and slaughters of over twenty million innocent people, specifically the indigenous population of the Americas, at the hands of the Spanish conquistadors. Las Casas, a Spanish historian and Dominican friar, was a witness to the atrocities committed against the native people during the early colonization of the Americas. He provides a first-hand account of the violence, brutality, and exploitation that the indigenous people suffered at the hands of the Spanish colonizers. The book is a powerful condemnation of the Spanish colonial system and the devastating impact it had on the native population. Las Casas argues that the Spanish conquest of the Americas was not a noble endeavor but rather a brutal and inhumane exploitation of an entire population. He also highlights the hypocrisy of the Spanish colonizers who claimed to be spreading Christianity and civilization while committing unspeakable acts of violence and cruelty. The Tears of the Indians is a significant historical document that sheds light on a dark period in the history of the Americas. It is a powerful reminder of the devastating impact of colonialism and the importance of acknowledging and learning from the past. The book remains relevant today as it raises important questions about the legacy of colonialism and the ongoing struggles faced by indigenous communities around the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
