URDAPILLETA MUNOZ, Marco. Estrategias retóricas para la escritura autobiográfica en la Historia de las Indias de Fray Bartolomé de Las Casas. Latinoamérica [online]. 2007, n.44, pp.83-101. ISSN 2448-6914.

The autobiography in the History of the Indias should not be understood as a sample more than the uncontrollable subjectivity of the Bishop of Chiapa. The self writing is justified is justified and regulated by historical institution. The self representation followed the pattern of confession and it projected two facets of the bishop’s performance fundamentally: the fair one and that of elect. To credit their biographic intention he used several resources like to point out their moral attributes and to create a distance effect between narrator and character.
