Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from John and Sebastian Cabot: The Discovery of North America A good many volumes and essays have already appeared upon the subject of the Cabot voyages; the details of these ventures have already been studied with the greatest minuteness; and perhaps no events in the history of exploration have been the cause of more perplexing and voluminous controversy. Since the modern Cabot literature began with the appearance of R. Biddle´s (American) Memoir in 1831, the educated opinion both of Europe and America has been changed in several important respects. It is no longer possible to speak (with Burke) of Sebastian Cabot as the discoverer of Newfoundland, to the exclusion of his father; it is no longer possible to exult with Biddle and Nicholls over Sebastian´s extraordinary purity of motive and elevation of character.
