SUMMARY
"I was quite astonished to find out that no version of Hans Staden's account had been printed in English since 1929. Not only is it the earliest eyewitness narrative of the Tupi peoples written by a European; it deals with the heated and enduring debate about the role of cannibalism in human experience."-Irene Silverblatt, author ofModern Inquisitions: Peru and the Colonial Origins of the Civilized WorldStaden, Hans is the author of 'Hans Staden's True History: An Account of Cannibal Captivity in Brazil' with ISBN 9780822342311 and ISBN 0822342316.
