When he returned to Italy many of his associates as him to write a formal account of the Magellan expedition in have it published.  He followed their advice and after doing it he presented his draft to Pope Clement VII, Philippe de Villiers L’Isle- Adam(grandmaster of the knights Of Rhodes) And to Louis of Savoy(mother of King Francis I of France), hoping that they would help him finance its publication. Unfortunately was unable to find a financer who would pay the deposit required by the printer because by that time the accounts of Maximilianus Transylvanus and Peter Martyr(exploration in America) were already out and interest on Magellan expedition had died down. Sometime in 1536, a condensed version of his manuscript was published in Venice by Jacques Fabre. The original journal of Pigafetta did not survive time. What was handed down to us are copies of the manuscript that were never printed in his lifetime.  Three of them were in French and two are kept in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. The third one was originally owned by British collector Sir Thomas Phillipps. Later, Beinecke Rare Book bought it and it is now kept in the Manuscript Library of Yale University in New Haven.  The fourth copy was written in mixed Italian, Spanish, and Venetian languages and could be found in the Ambrosian Library in Milan. In 1800, Carlo Amoretti published an Italian version and the following year a French version came out in Paris.  An English version was published in 1819. James Alexander Robertson made his own English version of the Ambrosian copy and it appeared in The Philippine Islands opus (Volume 33) as well as in a separate edition.  Of the four known primary sources that dealt with the Magellan expedition, Pigafetta's account is the longest and most comprehensive. It recounted the individual fates of the five ships (Trinidad, San Antonio, Concepción, Santiago, and Victoria) that comprised the It narrated lucidly how they gallantly survived the unforeseen problems and challenges, such as shortage of food, various types of diseases, the crew's lack of confidence in Magellan's leadership, and the hostile attitude of the people they encountered during the Pigafetta's account also included maps, glossaries of native words, and geographic information and descriptions of the flora and faunaof the places they visited. Pigafetta's travelogue contributed immensely to the enrichment of Philippine  His writing provided us a glimpse of the political, economic, and social conditions of the islands in the Visayan region during the 16th century. He described vividly the physical appearance, social life, religious beliefs, and cultural practices of the people they encountered in the islands of  His account also contains data about the economic activities of the local folks and the goods they offered for trade. He got all this information through the help of Magellan's slave/interpreter, Enrique de Malacca. Pigafetta likewise gave us an eyewitness account of the death of Magellan in  The report of Pigafetta is quite long and is not presented here in its entirety. The excerpts are limited to the narration of what happened to the expedition upon reaching the Philippines-from the time they landed on Homonhon up to the Battle of Mactan.  Since Pigafetta and Enrique de Malacca were not natives of the Visayan region, there were inaccuracies in the information about and the spelling of the names of places they visited. Thus, the correct equivalent and translation are provided in this lesson to make the excerpts understandable to King Charles I of Spain/ 45 Who can find the Strait of Magellan on google map?  Ladrones Islands/Islands of the Thieves On March 6, 1521, the expedition landed at the island of Guam.

The leader (king of the ballanghai/balangay) sent his men to the ship of Magellan. The Europeans entertained these men and gave them gifts. When the king of balangay offered Magellan a bar  Magellan exchange gifts of robes in Turkish fashion, red cap and gave the people knives and mirrors when the king responded to Magellan’s request for money by giving him the needed provisions of food in chinaware.

According to Zula, such chief refused to obey the king and & was also preventing him for doing so. Magellan offered 3 boats and go to Mactan himself to fight the said chief. They arrived at daylight. They numbered 49 in total while the islanders of Mactan were estimated to number 1500. 26 27 THANK YOU!
