Bartholomew Dias Case Study
I am Bartholomew Dias and the conflict is that Bartholomew Dias went with Pedro Cabral and they landed in Brazil. Cabral was not interested in exploring the area he discovered, he was more interested in finding India not Brazil. I came up with a route, but Pedro didn’t use my route which was around the west coast of Africa. Instead he used Vasco DA Gama’s route. We sailed in the South direction and passing the Canary and the Cape Verde Island. We were welcomed to the land where the Muslims were. When we got there we were putting in a trading post and the Muslims attacked us and we fought back. So then Pedro Cabral was accused with Battery/Assault.

    Racial Relations Throughout History: Bartolome De Las Casas, Helen Hunt Jackson

    Bartolome de Las Casas (1474-1566) was a Spanish historian who was one of the first to “tell all” about what the Spaniards were doing to the native people. In his writing he was quite descriptive, from how the people were killed to the locations of the islands. He was straightforward about what was done to the natives and he was very against it. He made it very clear that if the people were not killed, which was very few, were captured and sold for slavery. He compared the…

    7 Myths Of The Spanish Conquest Summary

    Mathew Restall’s Seven Myths of the Spanish Conquest is a well-written book that serves an important purpose. That purpose being: the debunking of generally accepted falsehoods about the Spanish Conquest beginning in the 15th century. Restall’s book is separated into seven chapters that specifically address general myths most historians and students perceive as basic --- universal truths. Restall uses the term “myth” to describe the inaccurate/fictitious depiction of history “commonly taken to be true, partially or absolutely.” These “myths” are the progenitors of unintentionally self-centered perceptions of events historically recorded in subjectivity. The Self-absorption, relating to the…

    Marco Polo Book Report

    The journey from Lisbon to Cape of Good Hope was nearly 6000 miles, the longest sea journey by Europeans to that date. Like other European explorers, da Gama was sometimes deceptive and violent. He spent nearly the whole month of March 1498 anchored near Mozambique Island. Fearing for his life and that of men, he pretended to be a Muslim. He was not well received and had to flee. As he left, he fired his cannons into the city. Along the way he looted unarmed Arab merchant ships. He reached India in May 1498. Not all went well there, but his journey opened direct trade with India. After one hundred years of exploration, the Portuguese made Prince Henry’s dream come true, and the Arab trade monopoly was…

    European Motives for Journey to the New World

    One seemingly very appealing idea to the Europeans was to conquer new land and expand their own. Fray Bartolome de las Casas, the Bishop of Chiapas, angrily describes the invasion of Europeans into New Spain to show their inhumane nature. Fray tells how they murdered people on the pretense of settling the land; this describes their want for conquest. In document 5, the author similarly describes the horrific actions of the Spaniards but in a rather somber tone, to depict the expansion hungry side of the Europeans. Again the Europeans are shown conquering new land. Guaman Poma de Ayala, a bilingual Quechua Indian, angrily informs King Philip the III about the overpowering Europeans who have taken control of the Indians, and are ruining the labor force and Indian nobility. As told by Guaman, the Europeans are attempting to conquer Indian land as well. Conquest and expansion proved to be one of the driving causes behind European journeys to the new world, and benefited the Europeans. One thing that was hurting them however was the expansion the Ottoman Empire and their capture of Constantinople, which cut off trade routes with Asia. So they were forced to find another method to obtain resources.…

    Crusade For Spice Essay

    The year was 1496 c.e.. Europe is abuzz with the fantasies of unimaginable riches that Columbus’ voyages would bring from the indies. But the newly crowned king of Portugal, Dom Manuel I, sought a different goal, an opportunity to spread the faith. He was ambitious, dreaming to do what the united christian countries of the 11th century couldn’t do. The Ottoman empire, the spiritual successor of the kingdom that stopped those knights of old, was blockading Europe from Asian trade. But more importantly, they still held the holy land. Manuel dreams of retaking Jerusalem. He sent Vasco Da Gama to sail across the coasts of Africa. His job was not to barge into Ottoman lands and go by brute force. Instead, he was to take the long way around. He would attempt to reach the real India and engage in trade. The spices of the east would be the fuel that would…

    Destruction Of Indians Analysis

    Throughout the Age of Exploration, the Spaniards succeed in subjugating the Indians, which proves their need for ultimate control. Bartolome de las Casas, provides insight on the treatment of the Indians in excerpts of A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies. Casas was a Spanish historian, a social reformer, and was named “Protector of the Indians”. After realizing that Spain was harsh to natives, he wrote many documents to King Don Carlos, to stop the bloodshed of the Indians. According to Casas,“[The Spaniards] oppress them with the… most heinous bondage… has been simply to get, as their ultimate end, the Indian’s gold of them… and raise themselves to high estates…” (Casas). This idea relies upon the fact that, the Europeans salvaged…

    Queen Isabella I

    During my reign artists from Spain and Belgium came to print for me, in my court. My court was a center of beauty and culture! I am known for a variety of reasons. I was pressured to force the Jews and the Muslims out of Spain, I did not agree with this but I felt as if I had to! Finally, in 1492, the Muslims were defeated in Granada and drove out from Spain. I sponsored the exploration voyage of Christopher Columbus. I have pride in my religion, Christianity and couldn’t wait for it to spread so I took this extra-ordinary opportunity to spread it. When Columbus came back from his expedition he brought back many enslaved people, and I demanded him to free them immediately . I am very concerned of the rights of the native resident. If I had not have supported Columbus on his voyage, European settlement in the Americas would not have…

    Personal Narrative Of St. Bartholomew's Massacre

    The 24 of August, the day that would scar me forever this day was the St. Bartholomew’s massacre. At the beginning this was a day of joyful celebration, But it was actullay a day of great sorrow. I remember my father and mother went to the town square to celebrate with the neighbors and left me in our little apartment. But because our apartment was just a brisk walk away from town square I could see every thing that happened. About two hours into the celebration it happened. I remembered the first gun shot going off and then everyone being silende for about ten seconds like time itself just stopped. Then suddenly everyone was running aways in terror not knowing what was going on I left our apartment to see what had started the screaming herd of people. Then atop the hill that held the police buidling a man said “Do not allow a single person to escape, they must pay for the sins that they have caused toward the cathilic church.” there must have been aleast a hundred people with guns pointing at the people who not two mintues ago were celebrating. I was so confused thatI…
