Resumen
PRIETO CALIXTO, Alberto. Aculturación en las fronteras de América. Cabeza de Vaca: el primer mestizo cultural. Estud. front [online]. 2007, vol.8, n.16, pp.123-143. ISSN 2395-9134.
This essay deals with the captivity ordeal that Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca wrote in his autobiography Naufragios de Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca (1542-1555). By means of the rethorical device of the anecdote, certain subversive situations to the order established by the official discourse are treated and Cabeza de Vaca is able to depict an overall positive and human image of his indigenous captors.
