Diese historische Miniature, die 1944 posthum mit dem Untertitel "Geschichte eines historischen Irrtums" erschien, ist eine Studie ber das sogenannte Amerigo Vespucci-Problem, eine Untersuchung, wie es zur Benennung Amerikas nach dem Vornamen eines Mannes kam, der mit der eigentlichen Entdeckung des Kontinents gar nichts zu tun hatte. In seiner unverwechselbaren klaren Sprache erz hlt Stefan Zweig die Verkettung von mehr oder weniger grossen Irrt mern, die schliesslich dem Kontinent Amerika seinen Namen gibt. Man folgt ihm durch die Jahrhunderte seit der Entdeckung Amerikas durch Columbus, der nicht wusste, dass er einen neuen Kontinent entdeckte bis hin zur Etablierung des Namens Amerika.

Stefan Zweig

Stefan Zweig was born in 1881 in Vienna, a member of a wealthy Austrian-Jewish family. He studied in Berlin and Vienna and was first known as a translator and later as a biographer.

Zweig travelled widely, living in Salzburg between the wars, and enjoying literary fame. His stories and novellas were collected in 1934. In the same year, with the rise of Nazism, he briefly moved to London, taking British citizenship.

After a short period in New York, he settled in Brazil where in 1942 he and his wife were found dead in bed in an apparent double suicide.
