 | | Contradiction and Inconsistency in the Conquest of the Aztecs | | by Nearly Anonymous, Jan 31, 2008 | | Both Diaz and Leon-Portilla portray an Aztec understanding of the Spanish conquest that is full of contradiction; similarly, the Spanish view of the Aztecs is shown to be equally inconsistent. These paradoxical conflicts inherent in each group’s understanding of the other are critically important to this study of conflict between civilizations: they led to complacency and division within the Aztec ranks, and, in contrast, to unity and aggression in the case of the Spanish. | | Comments(0) Liked It: 0 |
