Download or read book Del Pueblo written by Thomas H. Kreneck and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-13 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though relatively small in number until the latter decades of the nineteenth century, Houston'sHispanic population possesses a rich and varied history that has previously not been readily associated in the popular imagination with Houston. However, in 1989, the first edition of Thomas H. Kreneck’s Del Pueblo vividly captured the depth and breadth of Houston’s Hispanic people, illustrating both the obstacles and the triumphs that characterized this vital community’s rise to prominence during the twentieth century. This new, revised edition of Del Pueblo: A History of Houston’s Hispanic Community updates that vibrant history, incorporating research on trends and changes through the beginning of the new millennium. Especially important in this new edition are Kreneck’s historical contextualization of the 1980s as the “Decade of the Hispanic” and his documentation of other significant developments taking place since the publication of the original edition. Illustrated with seventy-five photographs of significant people, places, and events, this new edition of Del Pueblo: A History of Houston’s Hispanic Community updates the unfolding story of one of the nation’s most influential and dynamic ethnic groups. Students and scholars of Mexican American and Hispanic issues and culture, as well as general readers interested in this important aspect of Houston and regional history, will not want to be without this important book.
Book Synopsis Hijos del Pueblo by : Deborah E. Kanter
Download or read book Hijos del Pueblo written by Deborah E. Kanter and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2009-06-03 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The everyday lives of indigenous and Spanish families in the countryside, a previously under-explored segment of Mexican cultural history, are now illuminated through the vivid narratives presented in Hijos del Pueblo ("offspring of the village"). Drawing on neglected civil and criminal judicial records from the Toluca region, Deborah Kanter revives the voices of native women and men, their Spanish neighbors, muleteers, and hacienda peons to showcase their struggles in an era of crisis and uncertainty (1730-1850). Engaging and meaningful biographies of indigenous villagers, female and male, illustrate that no scholar can understand the history of Mexican communities without taking gender seriously. In legal interactions native plaintiffs and Spanish jurists confronted essential questions of identity and hegemony. At once an insightful consideration of individual experiences and sweeping paternalistic power constructs, Hijos del Pueblo contributes important new findings to the realm of gender studies and the evolution of Latin America.

Book Synopsis My Town / Mi Pueblo by : Nicholas Solis
Download or read book My Town / Mi Pueblo written by Nicholas Solis and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-08-16 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this bilingual picture book, cousins from opposite sides of the border visit each other’s towns and delight in their similarities and differences. Two cousins live in two towns, separated by a river. But there is also a bigger divide—the US-Mexico border—which means they live in different countries. On the girl’s side, English is the main language, and on the boy’s it’s Spanish. The cousins love their towns, and they love visiting each other’s, where they notice some things are the same and some are wonderfully different, adding up to a vibrant world full of even more possibilities. Author Nicholas Solis shows how border towns are special places, beautiful and dynamic, because two cultures can be better than one—and both cultures should be equally treasured and respected.

Book Synopsis Un Momento en la Vida de Mi Pueblo by : Luis Mulford
Download or read book Un Momento en la Vida de Mi Pueblo written by Luis Mulford and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro habla de los varios aspectos de la vida de un pueblo de antaño. Su folklore, sus costumbres, su picardía, su sanidad, sus valores, su moralidad, y sobre todo habla del pensamiento de algunos de sus hombres. Un pueblo en donde todos se conocían y se trataban como familia, en donde no había ni secretos ni intimidades que se pudieran ocultar. Los personajes de Zambrano en estas crónicas son y fueron reales. He cambiado algunos de sus nombres por respeto y deferencia a sus memorias. Los sucesos que a ellos se atribuyen por lo general fueron ciertos, salvo que talvez algunos han podido ser un poco exagerados o embellecidos por las Fuentes que los proveyeron. Parte del lenguaje usado aquí podría ser crudo y tal vez ofensivo para algunas personas.
Book Synopsis Folk Art of Spain and the Americas by : Marion Oettinger
Download or read book Folk Art of Spain and the Americas written by Marion Oettinger and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The unique charm of the folk art of Spain and the Americas is celebrated in this book. Encompassing ceramics, paintings and drawings, sculpture, furniture, kitchen tools, jewelry, and votive art, as well as objects used in the performing arts, this wide-ranging book presents the full spectrum of Spanish folk art expression." "The 124 paintings and objects featured here, mostly in color, span almost five hundred years and have been drawn from museums and private collections from every region of Spain as well as Latin America and the United States. The works demonstrate the vibrancy and appeal of objects designed to be purely decorative as well as those fashioned to fill specific needs. They range from wooden bread stamps used to distinguish a family's loaves and intricately crafted model ships offered to saints in thanks for deliverance from dangerous seas to glazed pottery introduced by Spaniards centuries ago and reinterpreted in Mexico, Guatemala, Peru, and Ecuador." "The text, edited by Marion Oettinger, Jr., with contributions by leading scholars, describes the full range of folk art expression that has been part of Spanish cultural life for hundreds of years and that was transformed into a new aesthetic after arriving in the Americas."--Jacket.
