Exploring the history of Iberian expansion into the Americas as seen through maps and cartographic literarure, this work considers the relationship between early Spanish ideas of the world and the origins of European colonialism. Maps of the New World, letters from explorers of indigenous civilizations, and poems dramatizing the conquest of distant lands, helped Spain to redefine itself both geographically and imaginatively as an Atlantic and even global empire.
