A visit to the Ranquel Indians

1997

0.0 (0)

"Another translation of Una excursión a los indios ranqueles (see item #bi 97012657#). Extensive, well-informed introduction for historical background; detailed notes, maps, illustrations from archival photographs. Translation of complete text, including chapter titles. Translation literal in nature but still highly readable; somewhat less fluent and literary than that of McCaffrey. Excellent for classroom use"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.

#2

An expedition to the Ranquel Indians

1997

0.0 (0)

"Translation of 1870 Una excursión a los indios ranqueles, letters recounting Mansilla's visit with the Ranquel nation of Argentina. Translator made some cuts to the text for fluency, but their location is not indicated to the reader. Short introduction, notes, map, and glossary give historical and cultural background. Narrative flow emphasized through organization into five parts, each with short preface. Highly accomplished literary prose"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
