The Career and Legend of Vasco da Gama
ISBN: 9780521646291 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 428 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Vasco da Gama (?1469 1524) is well known as one of a generation of discoverers, along with Magellan, Cabral, and Columbus. Yet little is known about his life, or about the context within which he 'discovered' the all-sea route to India in 1497 99. This book, based on a mass of published and unpublished sources in Portuguese and other languages, delineates Gama's career and social context, focusing on the delicate balance between 'career' and 'legend'. The book addresses broad questions of myth-building and nationalism, while never losing sight of Gama himself."
