Note: Latin translation, by Charles de L'Écluse, of two letters by Nicolas Barré first printed in: Copie de quelques letres sur la navigation du chevalier de Villegaignon es terre de l'Amerique oultre l'oequinoctial, iusques soubz le Tropique de Capricorne, printed Paris, 1557, and again in Paris, 1558.
Note: Colophon reads: Impressvm Francofvrti ad Moenvm, apvd Ioannem Wechelvm, impensis Theodori de Bry. M D XCII.
Note: This part is made up of two separate narratives: the first is an account of two voyages made to Brazil in 1546-1548 and 1549-1555 by Johann von Staden. This narrative was originally written in German by the author and published at Marburg in 1557. The Latin translation, here given, is the work of Adam Lonicer. The second part is an account of a voyage to Brazil in 1556-1558, by Jean de Léry. The narrative of this voyage was originally published in French in 1578. The Latin translation appears to have been made by the author himself and was first published in 1586, from which was doubtless taken by De Bry. The two letters of Nicolas Barre, who accompanied Villegaignon, relate to Brazil and are dated the first of February and 25th of May, 1552. They are also to be found in Lescarbot's Histoire de la Nouuelle France (1609), pp. 146-163. Cf. Church.
