Discuss the conflicting view Europeans held of the New World and its inhabitants. What originally shaped this view and how did this view evolve (or change based on motivations) from the end of the 16th century (1500s) through the first half of the 17th century (1600s)? In your response, give at least 2 specific historical examples (1 each from the colonizing efforts of 2 different European countries) demonstrating this conflicting view and/or how they solidified this perspective one way or the other. Hint: You must discuss De Las Casas
