notes:
|
Léry, a French Protestant, left France in 1556 to join a colony founded near present-day Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, by Nicolas Durand, chevalier de Villegagnon. The Protestants, fearing persecution, left Durand's colony and lived near the Tupinamba, a cannibalistic Brazilian tribe, for two months before returning to France in 1557. Léry did not publish his account of his experiences among the Tupinamba until 1578. Image is placed horizontally on page. Image title taken from chapter title.
