Los procesos de intercambio cultural han marcado durante siglos el devenir de las numerosas culturas que entraron en contacto por diversas razones. El intenso proceso de globalización de hoy es el final de un largo camino que comenzó con los desplazamientos de larga distancia. Rutas que permitieron la transferencia de objetos, personas e ideas, iniciando una transculturación que hoy en día puede ser estudiada. Entrados ya en el siglo XXI, las miradas al pasado fijan su atención en los acontecimientos que se desarrollaron en los primeros años del siglo XVI en América, de los que se cumplen quinientos años desde que acontecieron. Esto nos permite reflexionar sobre las verdaderas dimensiones de los acontecimientos que tuvieron lugar en aquellos territorios. Este libro reúne las reflexiones de un grupo de profesores de las Universidades de Granada y Barcelona sobre la verdadera dimensión del proceso de descubrimiento americano. Son un conjunto multidisciplinario de trabajos alrededor del mismo objeto, la presencia de lo hispano en el contexto americano y asiático, como reflejo de una huella cultural que habla de un acontecimiento histórico que duró más de trescientos años.
