'Primer viaje en torno del globo' Summary
En 'Primer viaje en torno del globo', Antonio Pigafetta narra la épica aventura de la primera circunnavegación del mundo, liderada por Fernando de Magallanes y concluida por Juan Sebastián Elcano. La obra relata la travesía de 239 hombres que partieron en agosto de 1519 desde Sanlúcar de Barrameda, España, y enfrentaron innumerables desafíos: tormentas, hambre, enfermedades, enfrentamientos con pueblos indígenas y la muerte de Magallanes en Filipinas. Pigafetta describe con detalle los lugares visitados, la flora y fauna encontradas, las culturas indígenas, los desafíos de la navegación y la lucha por la supervivencia. De las 239 almas que emprendieron el viaje, solo 18 regresaron a Sevilla en septiembre de 1522, llevando consigo la prueba definitiva de que la Tierra era redonda. La obra de Pigafetta se convirtió en un documento histórico invaluable, un testimonio de la audacia y la resistencia humana, y un legado de las primeras exploraciones del mundo.Book Details
