Product details
The book "Pedro Cabral and Amerigo Vespucci" by Ramiz D. Qasimov offers an in-depth analysis of the discovery of Brazil and the role that various historical figures played in it. It questions the official version of the discovery, which states that Pedro Cabral accidentally discovered Brazil on April 22, 1500. The author presents alternative theories suggesting that Amerigo Vespucci reached the Brazilian coast as early as 1499 and discovered the mouth of the Amazon River. However, Qasimov argues that the actual discovery of Brazil occurred in 1494 by Duarte Paszek Pirairaira, and that the results of this expedition were kept secret for political reasons. The book is a critical engagement with historiography and offers new perspectives on the history of discovery.
