Description: "Important critical analysis of Pedro de Aguado's famous 1581 Recopilación historial de Venezuela explicates chronicle's language and semiotics, use of character and characterization, narrative style, and metaphorical significance. Navarro emphasizes the text as a construction built by both chronicler and reader, with linguistic and interpretive tools of communication. Work is a useful companion to previous editorial notations on the text by Jerónimo Becker (1918/1919), Juan Friede (1957, HLAS 20:2708a), and Guillermo Morón (1987)"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
