Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ... well-written and well-documented landmark study... " --Choice This book raises important ideological and esthetic questions about the interpretation of artistic and cultural manifestations in a given society."--Hispanic American Historical Review The present volume is provocative in direction and a refreshing addition to the extant literature on the Mexican corrido genre." --American Ethnologist [Herrera-Sobek's] refreshing approach to analyzing masculine attitudes toward the feminine as expressed in the Mexican corrido is not only insightful but courageous." --Inez Cardozo-Freeman, Southern Folklore ... well-researched, insightful, clearly written, and well-illustrated study of a genre familiar in Hispanic culture." --Journal of the American Studies Association ... provides tantalizing insights into the inner workings and meanings of Mexico's favorite folk ballads..." --Journal of Third World Studies Challenging the stereotypical view of the passive Mexican/Chicana woman of the archetype, the author examines the portrayal of female figures in over three thousand corridos or Mexican ballads and shows that in spite of long-dominant patriarchal ideology, the corridos reveal the presence of self-confident women throughout Mexican history. Included are a discography, a detailed bibliography of corrido collections, and several photographs of soldaderas from the internationally famous Augustin Casasola collection.
Download or read book Forsaken Harvest written by Luis G. Cueva and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-11-05 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historical monograph examines the decline of the hacienda estates within Jalisco, Mexico, during the early decades of the twentieth century. The book also explores the impact of the land reform program of President Lázaro Cárdenas in transforming the agrarian economic structure of the region. This study contributes to an ongoing lively debate about the hacienda system and the meaning of Cárdenas’s reforms. This is an important work because it explores the evolution of a regional socioeconomic system that promoted urban industrial growth at the expense of the rural poor. The model of regional development described is applicable to other areas of Mexico and underdeveloped Third World nations with extensive peasant populations. The research for this investigation has wider implications regarding issues of global hunger and malnutrition.
Book Synopsis Mexico in Verse by : Stephen Neufeld
Download or read book Mexico in Verse written by Stephen Neufeld and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2015-03-26 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of Mexico is spoken in the voice of ordinary people. In rhymed verse and mariachi song, in letters of romance and whispered words in the cantina, the heart and soul of a nation is revealed in all its intimacy and authenticity. Mexico in Verse, edited by Stephen Neufeld and Michael Matthews, examines Mexican history through its poetry and music, the spoken and the written word. Focusing on modern Mexico, from 1840 to the 1980s, this volume examines the cultural venues in which people articulated their understanding of the social, political, and economic change they witnessed taking place during times of tremendous upheaval, such as the Mexican-American War, the Porfiriato, and the Mexican Revolution. The words of diverse peoples—people of the street, of the field, of the cantinas—reveal the development of the modern nation. Neufeld and Matthews have chosen sources so far unexplored by Mexicanist scholars in order to investigate the ways that individuals interpreted—whether resisting or reinforcing—official narratives about formative historical moments. The contributors offer new research that reveals how different social groups interpreted and understood the Mexican experience. The collected essays cover a wide range of topics: military life, railroad accidents, religious upheaval, children’s literature, alcohol consumption, and the 1985 earthquake. Each chapter provides a translated song or poem that encourages readers to participate in the interpretive practice of historical research and cultural scholarship. In this regard, Mexico in Verse serves both as a volume of collected essays and as a classroom-ready primary document reader.

Book Synopsis Memorial de cruces by : Carlos Pascual
Download or read book Memorial de cruces written by Carlos Pascual and published by GRIJALBO. This book was released on 2016-08-17 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Una historia, nuestra historia, en la que México debería escribirse con cruz. De Carlos Pascual, autor del bestseller La insurgenta. A 90 años del inicio de la Guerra Cristera, Carlos Pascual propone en esta novela una revisión contemporánea libre de maniqueísmos. Enel camino, derriba las mentiras que el martirologio católico ha pretendido hacer pasar como verdades históricas. Y con maestría narrativa va develando los resortes que animaron la lucha armada y a los hombres que estuvieron detrás de ella. Pero Memorial de cruces es también una historia de grandes personajes desbordados por la pasión, el fervor, el odio, la muerte, el amor, la ambición, la culpa y el abandono. Pascual ofrece -como ya lo hizo en La insurgenta, premio Grijalbo- una novela apasionante, emotiva, irónica y desgarrada, apoyándose en una exhaustiva investigación histórica. ...todo habrá de confluir en el mismo sitio donde estos torrentes caudales desembocan: en una tierra de destinos cruzados. En una tierra donde las almas son ríos y las cruces sus estuarios. En una tierra de césares y pontífices llamada México. ¿Y dónde más? Si México no se escribe con equis. Se escribe con cruz.

Download or read book San José Sánchez del Río y mártires de México written by Luis Laureán Cervantes and published by Encuentro. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joselito, como llaman en su tierra mexicana a san José Sánchez del Río, mártir a los catorce años, es uno de los más jóvenes del Martirologio católico. También es de los más recientes, declarado santo por el papa Francisco en 2016. Sin llegar a empuñar las armas, no temió arriesgar su vida por Cristo y por la Iglesia, uniéndose a los cristeros en el convulso México de hace cien años. ¿Qué pasó para que muchos católicos se alzaran contra el gobierno? ¿Fue legítima la guerra de los cristeros? El autor de este libro, natural del pueblo del joven mártir, no sólo responde a estas preguntas con documentos, sino que logra describir el ambiente que se vivía en Sahuayo dejando hablar a testigos directos de los hechos. A las decenas de miles víctimas causadas por la guerra, se suman en torno a 500 sacerdotes y no pocos católicos laicos asesinados por odio a la fe. La Iglesia ha reconocido ya como mártires a 40 de ellos, que también son presentados en este libro. En el siglo XX, en México, a causa del liberalismo radical —en otros lugares, bajo otros signos ideológicos— la sangre de los cristianos fue derramada sobre el altar del utópico ídolo moderno del «progreso». ¡Mártires de la esperanza!

Book Synopsis The Cristero Rebellion by : Jean A. Meyer
Download or read book The Cristero Rebellion written by Jean A. Meyer and published by . This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cristero movement is an essential part of the Mexican Revolution. When in 1926 relations between Church and state, old enemies and old partners, eventually broke down, when the churches closed and the liturgy was suspended, Rome, Washington and Mexico, without ever losing their heads, embarked upon a long game of chess. These years were crucial, because they saw the setting up of the contemporary political system. The state established its omnipotence, supported by a bureaucratic apparatus and a strong privileged class. Just at the moment when the state thought that it was finally supreme, at the moment at which it decided to take control of the Church, the Cristero movement arose, a spontaneous mass movement, particularly of peasants, unique in its spread, its duration, and its popular character. For obvious reasons, the existing literature has both denied its reality and slandered it.
Book Synopsis Peyote Hunt by : Barbara G. Myerhoff
Download or read book Peyote Hunt written by Barbara G. Myerhoff and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1976 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ramón Medina Silva, a Huichol Indian shaman priest or mara'akame, instructed me in many of his culture's myths, rituals, and symbols, particularly those pertaining to the sacred untiy of deer, maize, and peyote. The significance of this constellation of symbols was revealed to me most vividly when I accompanied Ramón on the Huichol's annual ritual return to hunt the peyote in the sacred land of Wirikuta, in myth and probably in history the place from which the Ancient Ones (ancestors and deities of the present-day Indians) came before settling in their present home in the mountains of the Sierra Madre Occidental in north-central Mexico. My work with Ramón preceded and followed our journey, but it was this peyote hunt that held the key to, and constituted the climax of, his teachings."--from the Preface
