Summary

«Sustentado por una apreciable información documental, el asombroso libro de Christian Duvergerrinde a Cortés escritor un merecido homenaje.» Bartolomé Bennassar

Se cumplen cinco siglos de la Conquista de México, y a lo largo de este tiempo Hernán Cortés ha desempeñado un claro papel en el imaginario colectivo de la nación: el de villano. Sin embargo, para Christian Duverger esta apreciación no podría ser más injusta. Lejos del ambicioso y sanguinario invasor que los libros de texto han urdido, el historiador francés presenta en esta biografía en dos tomos a un humanista, un hombre de armas y de letras que vio en las tierras americanas la posibilidad, no de trasplantar una copia de la sociedad castellana, sino de inventar un mundo nuevo. Para Cortés, el mestizaje era la clave de este proyecto cultural.

Publicada por primera vez en 2013, bajo el título de Crónica de la eternidad, esta segunda parte de la biografía cortesiana causó un gran revuelo al desmontar la autoría de Bernal Díaz del Castillo sobre la Historia verdadera de la conquista de la Nueva España y devolvérsela a su verdadero dueño: Hernán Cortés. La pluma nos presenta a un Cortés cronista de sí mismo, un escritor que supo fundar su legado a través de un magistral artificio literario: un auténtico conquistador de la memoria.
