Triumphant fables, untold stories, centuries-long cover ups. This class examines the sixteenth-century meetings between Spaniards and the Indigenous peoples of the Americas, peeling back generations of storytelling and silencing to try to understand what “really happened.” Through critical analysis of Spanish chronicles, Indigenous writings, and cutting-edge scholarship, we will explore the dynamics of cultural encounters that have shaped our world.
