Peregrinação es una de las obras maestras de la literatura de viajes y un testimonio vivo de la aventura portuguesa en el mundo durante el siglo XVI. En este primer volumen, Fernão Mendes Pinto relata con un estilo apasionante las atribulaciones, descubrimientos y encuentros culturales de un pueblo que actuó simultáneamente como misionero y mercader en tierras lejanas. Esta edición de Europa-América presenta el texto clásico que combina la crónica histórica con elementos autobiográficos, ofreciendo una visión detallada de la presencia lusa en Oriente. Es una pieza fundamental para entender la narrativa de viajes y la historia de la expansión marítima europea.
Fernão Mendes Pinto was a Portuguese explorer and writer. His voyages are recorded in Pilgrimage, his autobiographical memoir, which was published posthumously in 1614. The historical accuracy of the work is debatable due to the many events that seem far-fetched or at least exaggerated, earning him the nickname Fernão Mentes Minto. Still, many aspects of the work can be verified, particularly through records of Pinto's service to the Portuguese crown and by his association with Jesuit missionaries.
