{"product_id":"9781469630731","title":"Lima fundada by Pedro de Peralta Barnuevo: A Critical Edition","description":"\u003cp\u003ePedro de Peralta Barnuevo (1664-1743), a writer of early eighteenth-century viceregal Peru, believed that his epic poem \u003ci\u003eLima Fundada\u003c\/i\u003e (1732), in tandem with \u003ci\u003eHistoria de Espana Vindicada\u003c\/i\u003e (1730), were his crowning literary achievements. His instincts have proven correct. However, in spite of the fact that \u003ci\u003eLima Fundada\u003c\/i\u003e is Peralta's most cited work, it has not been published in its entirety since it appeared. For the first time in more than 280 years, Slade and Williams have edited the entire poem, including all of its original paratexts, introductory compositions, prologue, footnotes, marginal notes and index.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eLima Fundada by Pedro de Peralta Barnuevo: A Critical Edition\u003c\/i\u003e recounts the founding of Peru's capital city by Fernando Pizarro, a hero that gives shape to a conflicted discourse about colonization and empire. \u003ci\u003eLima fundada\u003c\/i\u003e is implicitly about criollo identity, history, and power in the face of a hierarchical system that gives preference to the Peninsular-born. The text is a complex history of the conquest in which a cast of nations, empires, rulers and peoples join to create Peralta's vision of Peru, while celebrating creoles as the true inheritors of the city's heroic founding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Department of Romance Studies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47037646340336,"sku":"9781469630731","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781469630731_p0.jpg?v=1763700864","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781469630731","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
