The Conquests and the Myth of the Age of Discovery

The Aztec, Inca, Mexican and Peruvian Indians fell down in defeat to the Spanish explorers.  They totally outnumbered the population of the Spanish, yet, all four Indians were defeated very easily.  How?  Historians have told us children and adults the story of people believing the world as flat.  However, that story is just that — a story.

Greek, Roman, and Renaissance vs. Hebrew, Christian, and Medieval

The Decameron and The Canterbury Tales seem to have a closer outlook to the Greek and Roman literature than the Hebrew, Christian, early Medieval, and late Medieval literature.  The Hebrew literature is the Old Testament, the Christian is the New Testament, the some of the early and late Medieval literature are The City of God, and The Little Flowers of St. Francis.  The Decameron and The Canterbury Tales were written in the time of the Early Renaissance when some people started moving a bit away from Christianity (although very many people still believed in God and Jesus Christ as the source of the full potential of man) and started reading more of the Roman and Greek literatures.
