Abstract

ANON, Valeria. Desplazamientos, fronteras, memoria: Bernal Díaz del Castillo y el viaje a las Hibueras. Acta poét [online]. 2006, vol.27, n.2, pp.299-323. ISSN 2448-735X.

In this article, we analyze the two years journey to the Hibueras, as narrated by the chronicler Bernal Díaz del Castillo in his True History of the Conquest of New Spain (Historia verdadera de la conquista de la Nueva España). We argue that this narration combines memories, autobiography and self representation. Therefore, we point out the strategies that organize the text and redefine, in a different way, exploration, conquest, and representation of the other.
