Up to Four Thesis Title Lines, in All Caps PLACE-NAMES, CONQUEST, AND EMPIRE: SPANISH AND AMERINDIAN CONCEPTIONS OF PLACE IN THE NEW WORLD by GENE RHEA TUCKER Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Arlington in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON May 2011 Copyright © by Gene Rhea Tucker 2011 All Rights Reserved ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My first thank you is to Dr. Richard V. Francaviglia, who helped me hatch the idea that would lead to this dissertation. Ideas and sources were suggested by Drs. Dennis P. Reinhartz and David Buisseret. These three gentlemen, great cartographic scholars all, unfortunately all retired from UTA before the completion of my project. Thanks should, of course, be extended to the fine scholars of my current committee. They have aided me in ways they will never know: Drs. Douglas Richmond, John Garrigus, Imre Demhardt, and Kimberly Breuer. Without them, this dissertation would not exist. Other professors at UTA were instrumental in the long process of earning a doctorate, and it is necessary for me to thank these fine scholars: Drs. Thomas Adam, Steven G. Reinhardt, Robert Fairbanks, Christopher Morris, Sam W. Haynes, David Narrett, Stanley Palmer, and Joseph Bastien. All were an immense help at some point. Further thanks are due to the UTA history department staff, especially Robin Deeslie and Ami Keller. Kudos to the innumerable librarians, archivists, and student workers who do the grunt work of dealing with researchers. Special thanks to Ben Huseman, UTA‘s cartographic archivist, in this regard. Thanks also to my colleagues in the same Ph.D. boat: Jefferson Dillman (who has suffered the indignity of sharing an office with me for five years), David Watry, Mylynka Cardona, Greg Kosc, and Justin Dellinger. April 6, 2011 iii ABSTRACT PLACE-NAMES, CONQUEST, AND EMPIRE: SPANISH AND AMERINDIAN CONCEPTIONS OF PLACE IN THE NEW WORLD Gene Rhea Tucker, PhD The University of Texas at Arlington, 2011 Supervising Professor: Douglas Richmond This research corrects the one-sided historiography of toponyms in the New World, which focus only on the European imposition of place-names, viewed by many postmodernist scholars as a way to oppress and suppress the native Indians. Instead this transatlantic dissertation recognizes that the Spanish brought patterns of place-naming created in the Old World over to the New World. The naming of the New World was not a unilateral Spanish undertaking. The Spanish did create new toponyms in the Americas. They described the land, honored their Catholic faith and their nobility, and they transferred Old World place-names to the New World—but this only accounts for a portion of the toponyms used in the Spanish New World. Amerindians continued using their own place-names and contributed many of them to the Spanish, who adopted and iv adapted them. A number of the toponyms in the New World, as demonstrated both by contemporary Spanish chronicles and maps, were in fact syncretized place-names. For every Spanish ―Vera Cruz‖ there was an Indian ―Oaxaca‖ and a creolized ―San Juan Evangelista Culhuacan.‖ The syncretized toponyms of the Spanish New World are best understood in the wider context of the transtlantic encounter. v TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ............................................................................................... iii ABSTRACT ....................................................................................................................... iv LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS ........................................................................................... viii Chapter Page 1.

  • The Development of Maritime Hydrography and Methods of Navigation
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF MARITIME HYDROGRAPHY AND METHODS OF NAVIGATION Lecture delivered by H enri BENCKER,on April 5th 1943. The “ Société des Conférences de iMonaco ” has kindly done me the honour to call upon me to treat before you a subject which is possibly a little dry although dealing with things of the sea, viz. the development of maritime hydrography and methods of navigation. I am all the more willing to fulfil this mission as we are indebted to the generosity of the Princely Government for the foundation and upkeep, since the year 1921, of a special Institute, situated in the Principaliiy and entrusted with the co-ordination of all questions relating to the world's hydrography. But, first of all, what is meant by “ hydrography ” ? It is customary to designate under this heading that branch of geographical science dealing with the regimen of current or stable waters which is peculiar to a given continental area. But from the stand point which concerns us, maritime hydrography is really the art of compiling charts and drawing up documents for the use of mariners with regard to the safety of their navigation and in view of ensuring the proper steering of their ships in all navigable parts, including oceans, seas and adjacent coastal zones. It includes the carrying out of necessary maritime surveys for the security of navigation viz. : coastal triangulation and shore topography measurements, the taking of soundings and sea depths, the description of coastlines, the study of tides and sea-currents. Its aim is to publish in an appropriate form for the use of navigators all data relating to the correct configuratiotf of navigable regions and all nautical information which may be of service to them.

  • American Settings for François De Belleforest's Tragic Histories
    Framing the Early Modern French Best Seller: American Settings for François de Belleforest’sTragicHistories HERVÉ-THOMAS CAMPANGNE, University of Maryland, College Park This article shows how François de Belleforest (1530–83) adapted a variety of historical and geo- graphical sources to meet the demands of the histoire tragique genre in composing three narratives set in the Americas. One recounts the destiny of conquistador Francisco Pizarro; another is the story of Marguerite de Roberval, who was allegedly marooned on a Canadian island; the third concerns Taino cacique Enriquillo’s heroic rebellion in 1520s Hispaniola. These narratives fostered a tragic im- age of the Americas that had a considerable influence on early modern readers, inviting them to ponder essential questions about European encounters with the American continent and its inhabitants. INTRODUCTION IN THE PRELIMINARY epistle to his famous anthology of Histoires tragiques (Tragic histories, 1559), a compilation of six narratives borrowed from Matteo Bandello’s (ca. 1485–1561) Novelle (1554), French author Pierre Boaistuau (1517–66) thanked his collaborator François de Belleforest (1530–83) for his work on a translation that “would probably not have been published without his help.”1 Boaistuau also announced the imminent publication of Belleforest’s Continuation des Histoires tragiques (1559),2 which would mark the beginning of one of the most successful literary collections in late sixteenth-century France and Europe. Between 1559 and 1582, Belleforest published five volumes of histoires tragiques,compris- ing ninety-eight stories of passion, murder, and revenge that were reissued sev- eral times by printers in Paris, Lyon, Rouen, and Torino. These early modern best I would like to thank those who helped me improve this article, especially the two anonymous read- ers at RQ, and my University of Maryland colleague Lauretta Clough.

  • The Masters of Calatrava and the Castilian Civil War 1350-1369
    The Masters of Calatrava and the Castilian Civil War 1350-1369 BY JOSEPH F. O'CALLAGHAN Düring the third quarter of the fourteenth Century the bitter civil war between King Pedro the Cruel (1350-1369) and his half-brother, Count Enrique of Trastamara, tore the kingdom of Castile asunder, dividing its leaders and people, allowing no one the privilege of neutrality. Prominent among the participants in the conflict were the masters of the military Order of Calatrava who, together with the masters of Santiago and Alcäntara, ranked among the great men of the realm. As the war progressed, the king and his challenger endeavored to control magisterial elections and, through them, the immense resources that the Order of Calatrava possessed in the modern provinces of Ciudad Real, Jaen, Cordoba, Seville, and so forth. The consequence was schism within the Order, the diversion of its interest and wealth to domestic politics rather than the reconquest, and an increasing brutalization of life, typified by the execution of one master by Pedro and another by Enrique. Above all, the civil war pointed up the crown's growing awareness of the need to subject all the military Orders to effective royal control. ^ Juan Nünez de Prado At the time of Pedro the CruePs accession to the throne in March 1350 at the youthful age of sixteen years, Juan Nünez de Prado was the master of Calatrava. The illegitimate son of a knight named Carpintero and Bianca, senora of Las Huelgas and daughter of King Afonso III of Portugal (1248-1279), he was legitimated in 1313, on his mother's request, 2 by Pope Clement V, and entered the Order of Calatrava.
