Castilian ('Spanish') Magellan-Elcano expedition, which sailed from
Seville (Spain) on August 10, 1519, and returned to Sanlúcar de
Barrameda (Spain) on Sept. 6, 1522, was started by Portuguese
navigator Fernão de Magalhães (Ferdinand Magellan) and completed by
Spanish Basque navigator Juan Sebastián de Elcano. It was the first
circumnavigation of the Globe and a heroic achievement involving
high-risk adventures that the expedition crew confronted first under
the leadership of Magellan and then, after the latter's death in a
battle with the natives of the Philippines, under the command of Juan
Sebastián de Elcano. Spanish Navy Captain Ignacio Paz is at present
the Commanding Officer of the Training Tall Ship "Juan Sebastián de
Elcano". His lecture will cover both the circumstances and course of
the first circumnavigation and also the sailing ship: her history, the
life and work onboard, the formation of the midshipmen and her role as
Spanish Embassy. <strong>IN SPANISH</strong>
