Poem, La Florida, Alonso Gregorio De Escobedo, Mikaela Perron, Thomas B. Hallock Dec 1597

Poem, La Florida, Alonso Gregorio De Escobedo, Mikaela Perron, Thomas B. Hallock

Early Visions Bucket

"Alonso Gregorio de Escobedo, a Franciscan hailing from Andalucía, arrived in St. Augustine on October 7, 1587. Little is known about his life, except for what he included in his epic poem 'La Florida.' Penned sometime between 1598 and 1615, this massive composite work was modeled after the metrically elegant style of the octava real, the preferred poetic structure in Spanish letters at his time. Written as a poem, rather than a historical document, “La Florida” is read today for its anthropologically significant information, such as the description of Indian fishing practices found in Canto 27."

Cabeza de Vaca's personal narrative … covered the voyage taken by Narváez, the perils of the journey, and close detail of his wanderings across the North American continent."
