In “Francisco Lopez de Mendoza Grajales: The Founding of St. Augustine,1565”, seems to be based as a dairy or document. The reason why I say it’s a document is because the writer states “I, Francisco Lopez de Mendoza Grajales, Chaplain of His Lordship, certify that the foregoing is a statement of what actually Happened.”. This passage was created in the July until September 29, 1565 by Francisco Lopez de Mendoza Grajales. This document was written in Lanzarote Islands while Lopez stated “sailing brought us in sight of the Lanzarote Islands”, which means that’s when he wrote this down on his dairy or document.
About the author who wrote this I learned that he was living this experience between his people and the French. He was also a risk taking …show more content…
He only addressed the French and his people, on how French people came to their territory and wanted them to left, “Victory! Victory! The French fort us ours”. He did really didn’t focus on a particular audience he just wanted to state how things happen because he wanted to let people know how Spain found St. Augustine. The way this document was received by the audience was by him leaving this document written down letting people know how this was successful.
The way this source tells me about the time and place in which it was created is by have the dates in detail written down as he writing it down for example “On Monday, September 24th, about nine o’clock in the morning”. A useful thing for understanding the past in this document was that each country had to fight for what they wanted even though it could take them a while to get. Then again this document didn’t have that much information about understanding the pasted, which it only talked about, what happened along the way and what the Gragales people did to …show more content…
Gragales was in a position to have a reliable knowledge of the event because he witnessed this and that’s why he wrote this down to let people know what happen and also because he was a priest. He has no reason to avid telling the truth as he witnessed the event because has he say he’s a priest and a Christians which who don’t lie and likes telling the true. Some question was unanswered by this source, for example what happened to the French after Spain won? Why was Grajales there for? I think this document is trustworthy because he was it was revised by other department such as two other universities. I believe there is not reasons to doubt the authorship document because why would someone keeps track of the dates and the time when these things where occurring. I mean in the end in signed with his name and stating that this was what actually happened, so this cannot be a forgery, yeah I mean things could be change because of the wording was change to more understanding in days writing so people could understand
