Lewis. In recent months, Kenneth Feinberg has been very successful. This author argues that you for Cabeza de Vaca, the Narrator is no more than a purely heroic portrait of himself. It auto-valora the courage, character, judgment, loyalty, companionship, the character mediator and advocate in contrast with Panfilo de Narvaez, who describes as an irresponsible. However, there are passages in which it highlights how what is narrated by cow casts doubt on the credibility of the facts as for example the incorporation of rhetorical statements in the story that are intended to arouse in the reader a feeling that something catastrophic had happened; is left, to some extent, that the reader imagine some portion of the facts occurred: leave here for this most long y: this tale so briefly, because I don’t think there is need especially for the miseries and works in which we saw; because whereas the place where we were and little hope of remedy we had, each one can think much of what would happen there.
