	H. E. Martel \| Hans Staden's Captive Soul: Identity, Imperialism, and Rumors of Cannibalism in Sixteenth-Century ...
		Staden was most frank about his strategy of shifting national and religious identity in order to survive when he recalled attempting to convince the Tupinamba that he was with the French rather than the Portuguese.
		Staden had escaped captivity among the Portuguese and was relying on Tupinamba animosity toward them to defend him from reassignment to a dangerous indentured service defending their fort.
		Hans Staden's motivations were not questioned by his fellow Christians, for far from defending the natives or telling a tale of bravery and personal "glory," he exhibited no free will.

		HANS STADEN'S book is not altogether unknown to English readers, for it was translated and issued by the Hakluyt Society to its members in 1874, with an Introduction and notes by Sir Richard Burton.
		It has long seemed to me that Hans Staden deserves a wider public, and I have therefore made a new translation and have incorporated the quaint and interesting woodcuts which were printed in the first edition, and which must have carried wonder and terror into many a German home in the 16th century.
		Sir Richard Burton was British Consul at Santos for some years, and knew the country of Hans Staden's captivity very intimately, and by the courtesy of the Council of the Hakluyt Society I have been enabled, as occasion arose, to make use of certain of his notes.

	Food/cannibalism according to harris
		Staden was in fact a member of an expedition led by the Spanish captain Diego de Sanabria, which set sail from Seville in the spring of 1549.
		For the next year Staden worked as a gunner for th ePortuguese and was in close contact with at least one Tupi-Guarani-speaking native whom he described as his "slave" and who accompanied Staden on hunting expeditions.
		I believe that Hans Staden has faithfully reported his history and adventures from his own experience and not from the account of others, that he has no intent to deceive and that he desires no reward or worldly renown, but only the glory of God, in humble praise and faithfulness for his escape.'
