Resumo: This paper analyzes the legacies of Columbus as the navigator who definitely changes the perceptions of the world, but also as the hermeneut who reads the Vulgate to inquire into the divine plans and the place that he himself would play before the singular events arising from the appearance of the Indiesin the episteme of the time. Following his understanding of the Bible, and the guidelines of his exegesis, we examine some of his writings, such as his letters, his chronicles and the work known as the Libro de las profecias, and we describe in particular the assignments given by the Almirante to toponyms and places like Ofir or Paradise, that, according to his interpretations, could confirm the condition of a sacred geography, forseen by the prophets and authorities, in which the existence of the Americas was already acknowledged.

Perfazendo suas leituras da Bíblia e os métodos que guiam sua exegese, examinamos alguns dos seus escritos, tais como as cartas, as relações e o chamado Livro das profecias, e descrevemos em particular as atribuições dadas pelo Almirante a topônimos e lugares como Ofir ou o Paraíso, que, segundo suas interpretações, poderiam confirmar a condição de uma geografia sacra que, prenunciada pelos profetas e autoridades, já postulava a existência do continente americano. Universidade Federal Fluminense2016-12-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/3342010.22409/gragoata.v21i41.33420Gragoatá; Vol. 21 No. 41 (2016): Literature StudiesGragoatá; v. 21 n. 41 (2016): Estudos de Literatura2358-41141413-907310.22409/gragoata.v21i41reponame:Gragoatáinstname:Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)instacron:UFFporhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/33420/19407Copyright (c) 2016 Gragoatáinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCordiviola, Alfredo2019-08-23T11:08:34Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/33420Revistahttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoataPUBhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/oai||revistagragoata@gmail.com2358-41141413-9073opendoar:2019-08-23T11:08:34Gragoatá - Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)false
