Gonzalo Argote de Molina placed Fuleco’s carapace in his collection in Seville and Nicolás Monardes visited Argote’s collection, thereafter publishing a woodcut image of Fuleco (1571 and 1574). Fuleco functioned as a specimen in a modern museum in the sense that Argote, following the model of other Renaissance curiosity cabinets, sought to create a theater of the world. Fuleco was an important collectible because his body was considered an American wonder in which nature fashioned a bard on the skin of an unusual horselike animal. By contrast, Fuleco as specimen symbolically enhanced the value of live horses and armor as collectibles in both Argote and King Philip II’s collection.","PeriodicalId":227791,"journal":{"name":"Transoceanic Animals as Spectacle in Early Modern Spain","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121158960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Influenced by Albrecht Dürer’s Rhinoceros, early modern Spain celebrated itself as a planetary world power through the spectacles of an exotic elephant, rhinoceros, armadillo, and lion. Also, partially due its role as a foil to the positing of animals as exotic, Spain created a spectacle of a homegrown bull. This chapter asserts the importance of deploying the methodology of a biogeography for one of each of these species, all of whom played a role as an animal protagonist in a spectacle. The writing of biogeographies takes the extinction of species in the Anthropocene into account and, in contrast to the negative impact of each animal’s role as an object in a spectacle, places an emphasis on an earth ethics that fosters healthy animal-human communities.","PeriodicalId":227791,"journal":{"name":"Transoceanic Animals as Spectacle in Early Modern Spain","volume":"119 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133102041","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
