Description
Con la edición de la *Relación del Primer viaje alrededor del Mundo. Noticias del Mundo Nuevo con las figuras de los países que se descubrieron señalados por Antonio Pigafetta. Vicentino. Caballero de Rodas*, el lector está ante un libro de aventuras, que contiene la auténtica vivida por los los que lograron dar la vuelta a la tierra. Es mejor copiar a Ramusio que glosar sus palabras: «El viaje relaizado por los españoles alrededor del mundo es una de las cosas más grandes y maravillosas que se han oído en nuestros tiempos; y aunque superamos en muchas cosas a los antiguos ésta superaría en gran medida, todas las que hasta este tiempo han sido halladas». Para esta edición se ha utilizado el texto de la *Relación*, preparado por Camillo Manfroni, traducido del italiano por F. Ros y con estudio introductorio y notas aclaratorias del prof. Bartolomé Escandell Bonet, *Bibliotheca Indiana*, Tomo I, Editorial Aguilar, 1957. Se ha elegido reeditar la versión italiana de Camillo Manfroni por ser fiel al texto original del manuscrito de la Biblioteca Ambrosiana. El volumen cuenta con notas e introducción de su editor, el historiador español Leoncio Cabrero.
