Synopsis "Historia Verdadera de la Conquista de la Nueva España(Sc005) (in Spanish)"

La obra de Bernal Diaz del Castillo no es un hilvan destenido de noticias ordenadas cronologicamente, sino una obra de arte de altisimo valor humano, de fuerte y cristalino valor social. Es un trozo de vida con amplio caracter homerico porque no esta construida para destacar y hacer admirar la figura de un heroe, sino que nos muestra a la multitud de los conquistadores, individualizado cada uno en su propia fisonomia, cualidades y defectos, actos de valor y desfallecimientos momentaneos de desaliento o de miedo; y esto dentro del ambiente en que se movia aquella gesta, que ya nos parece legendaria, en un mundo exterior nuevo, antes nunca visto, y en el momento mismo en que chocan dos civilizaciones, dos conceptos de la vida y del mundo distintos.
Bernal Díaz Castillo

Bernal Díaz del Castillo (1492-1584) was a Spanish conquistador and chronicler of the conquest of Mexico. His most important work is True History of the Conquest of New Spain, written between 1552 and 1568, though published posthumously in 1632. This book, belonging to the genre of historical chronicle, provides a detailed and first-person account of Hernán Cortés' expedition and the fall of the Aztec Empire.

His testimony is distinguished by its direct and lively style, which contrasts with other chronicles of the time, offering a perspective from the experience of a soldier. His work has been valued by historians and readers as an essential source for understanding the conquest of Mexico and the pre-Hispanic indigenous world.
