Bartolomé de Las Casas, "Of the Island of Hispaniola" (1542) (on this site)
This extract from Las Casas’s Very Brief Account of the Destruction of the Indies describes the island of Hispaniola (present-day Dominican Republic and Haiti), the island Columbus described in his letter to Luis de Sant’ Angel. Las Casas wrote this gory and explosive account in 1542 to be read at a forum on Spanish colonization called by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V. Widely translated, this account gave rise to a flood of anti-Spanish and anti-Catholic propaganda throughout Europe deriding the Spanish settlement of the Americas.
