Quel est le sujet du livre "AZTECA"
Por fin, el emisario de Moctezuma entra en contacto con los españoles de Hernán Cortés, es bautizado y recibe el nombre de Juan Damasceno, aunque sigue fiel a los usos de los aztecas. Ésta es su trepidante y desgarrada historia, que simboliza el choque de dos civilizaciones, de dos maneras irreconciliables de entender el mundo.
Gary Jennings led a paradoxically picaresque life. On one hand, he was a man of acknowledged intellect and erudition. His novels were international best sellers, praised around the world for their stylish prose, lively wit and adventurously bawdy spirit. They were also massive - often topping 500,000 words - and widely acclaimed for the years of research he put into each one, both in libraries and in the field.
Jennings served in the Korean War, where he was awarded the Bronze Star Medal- a decoration rarely given to soldier-reporters- and a personal citation by South Korean President Syngman Rhee for his efforts on behalf of war orphans.
Where the erudition came from, however, was something of a mystery.
