...Columbus Was a Corrupted Man A while back in third grade, we were taught that Columbus was the first person to discover America, and that everyone loved him because he was a great person. Well guys, he’s actually not the first one to discover America, and he definitely was not a nice guy. He was an arrogant, selfish, rotten brat that got his way all of the time, which a lot of people think is rubbish. He was a greedy invader rather than a brave explorer and didn’t care what anyone thought. We know now that Columbus was not a good man nor a great explorer. Columbus was as fake as the lies going around that he was actually smart enough to find America. Columbus day should not be celebrated because of all of the selfish things he did to better...

...the time period focus on some very recognizable themes. The theme of any given work – being simply the unifying subject or idea – is a very important element of any piece of writing. As one reviews some of this early literature, it becomes obvious that several themes appear repeatedly, and it is these subjects that were clearly very common among people from all over the New World. While a number of themes can be found in early American literature, the only dominant and recurring themes are exploration, hardship, and religion. It is these central ideas around which all early American writing is based. The first prominent theme that appeared in the literature of Christopher Columbus and the many great explorers that followed in his footsteps was that of exploration. With the mission to sail West across the Atlantic Ocean and report back with their findings, these explorers wrote down all of their noteworthy experiences in journals and narratives. So, it is only natural that the theme of exploration can be found in many of these literary works. For example, in Christopher Columbus’ Report of the First Voyage, he details the discovery of the Canary Islands as well as their inhabitants; a settlement of people who had never before been known to exist. Throughout the report, Columbus describes nearly everything that he sees as he explores the islands and the curious people who call them home. Exploration is the central theme in just about every popular literary piece from...

...history that have led to Latin America be in the state it currently is in. Galeano argues that because of both European and U.S intervention, Latin America has been led down a path which has caused damage to its politics, its society and most importantly its economy. The book begins with the arrival of Christopher Columbus, the Spaniard who tried to find a faster passage to Asia but instead would discover by accident the Americas. Columbus would get started with his voyage after asking the Queen and King of Spain to fund his expedition so he could bring wealth to the Spanish Empire. During this time, the Spanish had been fight a war to expel the Moors out of its Kingdom and all those who were not of catholic faith. This included people of Islamic religions and Jews. But the cost of this war was increasing by the day and the Spanish crown was running out of funds to continue this war. But even with the necessity for income, Columbus still needed to convince the Crown to fund his voyage even with the promises of bring riches to the Kingdom. Eventually, after convincing the crown, Columbus would set sail on a voyage that would lead to a great discovery in history. Columbus goal for his voyage was to discover a western route to Asia and he would believed to have found the...

...follow-up on these explorations. As a result, European states continued to make commerce across the Mediterranean Sea with North Africa for many years that followed. Research has shown that the methods and motivations of exploration were unique from one state to the other. As Europeans continued their explorations, we will examine the similarities and differences on how the Spanish (1492-1548) and English (1584-1648) conducted their exploration and expansion. Comparison Between the British and Spanish in North America The first Spanish to arrive in America was Hernan Cortes in 1519. He did the groundwork for the creation of the Spanish colony. In 1607, Christopher Newport set foot in what would later become Jamestown, laying the foundation of the British Empire in North America. Explorers, such as Christopher Columbus, wanted to go to Asia before they ended up in North America. The Spanish saw the Americas as a good source of resources. There are several ways in which both the English and Spanish explorers had similar motives and effects. Negative Perception of the Native Indians On arrival in North America, most Europeans would say that...

...heritage. They were once free to wonder vast lands in a quest of survival without boundaries, regulations, and politics as we know it . Native American people were broken up between tribes, bands and rancherias each with various beliefs, needs, demographics and characteristics. There was a sacred prophecy told throughout the land of the arrival of different people that would bring disease, sickness and death to the native people. In 1492 the prophecy began to show true. Christopher Columbus reports of a new world began the introduction of European colonization “white man” to this native land. The introduction of the white man to America would have lasting effect on every Native American throughout history. From the first encounters to present day Indians, life would forever be changed. One of the first European descriptions of the New World and the people who inhabit it was written in a letter to Luis de Sant Angel, Tresurer of Aragon. In this letter Columbus, C. (1493) writes I found no towns nor villages on the sea-coast, except a few small settlements, where it was impossible to speak to the people, because they fled at once, I continued the said route, thinking I could not fail to see some great cities or towns; and finding at the end of many leagues that nothing new appeared, and that the coast led northward, contrary to my wish, because the winter had...
