Discussion: The Four Voyages

Author: Christopher Columbus

Description: In The Four Voyages, Columbus details his expeditions across the Atlantic to the New World. His diaries provide insight into the challenges he faced, the lands he encountered, and the complex interactions with indigenous peoples. Although Columbus frames the voyages as a divine mission, his accounts reflect both triumphs and struggles, including navigational hardships, conflicts with his crew, and the gradual realization that he had encountered unfamiliar lands, not Asia.
