Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In what follows can be found the doors to a house of words and stories. This house of words and stories is the "Archive of New Mexico" and the doors are each of the documents contained within it. Like any house, New Mexico's archive has a tale of its own origin and a complex history. Although its walls have changed many times, its doors and the encounters with those doors hold stories known and told and others not yet revealed. In the Archives, there are thousands of doors (4,481) that open to a time of kings and popes, of inquisition and revolution. "These archives," writes Ralph Emerson Twitchell, "are by far the most valuable and interesting of any in the Southwest." Many of these documents were given a number by Twitchell, small stickers that were appended to the first page of each document, an act of heresy to archivists and yet these stickers have now become part of the artifact. These are the doors that Ralph Emerson Twitchell opened at the dawn of the 20th century with a key that has served scholars, policy-makers, and activists for generations. In 1914 Twitchell published in two volumes "The Spanish Archives of New Mexico," the first calendar and guide to the documents from the Spanish colonial period. Volume One of the two volumes focuses on the collection known as the "Spanish Archives of New Mexico, Series I," or SANM I, an appellation granted because of Twitchell's original compilation and description of the 1,384 documents identified in the first volume of his series. The Spanish Archives of New Mexico was assembled by the Surveyor General of New Mexico (1854-1891) and the Court of Private Land Claims (1891-1904). The collection consists of civil land records of the Spanish period governments of New Mexico and materials created by the Surveyor General and Court of Private Land Claims during the process of adjudication. It includes the original Spanish colonial petitions for land grants, land conveyances, wills, mine registers, records books, journals, dockets, reports, minutes, letters, and a variety of other legal documents. Each of these documents tell a story, sometimes many stories. The bulk of the records accentuate the amazingly dynamic nature of land grant and settlement policies. While the documents reveal the broad sweep of community settlement and its reverse effect, hundreds of last wills and testaments are included in these records, that are scripted in the most eloquent and spiritual tone at the passing of individuals into death. These testaments also reveal a legacy of what colonists owned and bequeathed to the next generations. Most of the documents are about the geographic, political and cultural mapping of New Mexico, but many reflect the stories of that which is owned both in terms of commodities and human lives. Archives inevitably, and these archives more than most, help to shape current debates about dispossession, the colonial past, and the postcolonial future of New Mexico. For this reason, the task of understanding the role of archives, archival documents, and the kinds of stories that emanate from them has never been more urgent. Let this effort and the key provided by Twitchell in his two volumes open the doors wide for knowledge to be useful today and tomorrow.--From the Foreword by Estevan Rael-Galvez, New Mexico State Historian"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Border Matters locates the study of Chicano culture in a broad social context. José Saldívar examines issues of representation and expression in a diverse, exciting assortment of texts—corridos, novels, poems, short stories, punk and hip-hop music, ethnography, paintings, performance, art, and essays. Saldívar provides a sophisticated model for a new kind of U.S. cultural studies, one that challenges the homogeneity of U.S. nationalism and popular culture by foregrounding the contemporary experiences and historical circumstances facing Chicanos and Chicanas. This intellectually adventurous, politically engaged study applies borderlands and diaspora theory to Chicano cultural practices in a way that permanently changes our understanding of both the Chicano experience and the meaning of cultural theory. Defying national (and nationalistic) paradigms of culture, Saldívar argues that the culture of the borderlands is trans-national, constituting a social space in which new relations, hybrid cultures, and multi-voiced aesthetics are negotiated. Saldívar's critical readings treat culture as a social force and reveal the presence of social contexts within cultural texts. Border Matters maps out a new terrain for the study of culture, reshaping the way we understand migration, national identity, and intellectual inquiry itself.

Book excerpt: Hemos escuchado, a los estadistas mundiales, hablar de como se cuentan los grandes acontecimientos; el desarrollo de un pais, una plaga, una enfermedad, etc. No se alarme, el sufrimiento del pueblo de Cuba se cuenta en numeros de muertos; por mas de 65 anos. Este pequeno pais es una isla, situada en el caribe, su poblacion ha sido sometida, a la mas terrible de las torturas, solo comparable al exterminio de la poblacion camboyana, por el regimen comunista de Pol pot. Este libro, facil de leer, y muy ameno, por la dinamica, en la que resulta su estructura, en capitulos breves, en los cuales, se relatan acciones y acontecimientos, que involucran a este argentino; nombrado Che Guevara. Como cubano; hablare por las victimas de los primeros anos del comunismo radical, en la isla de Cuba, ya que a ellos, no les estuvo permitido expresarse, aun cuando ante la inminente privacion de la vida, suplicaban a sus verdugos, que no los asesinaran, pues eran inocentes. No pretendo abarcar toda la historia, seria creo imposible, pues cada cubano que ha vivido en la isla durante estos mas de 65 anos tiene su propia historia, mas tragica o menos tragica, pero cada uno tiene su historia, les confieso algo: Me ha sido muy dificil escribir a cerca de este asesino, Pero, como secuestrado por estos verdugos, creo que las victimas merecen respeto, por lo tanto. En memoria de las victimas, contare mi version de los hechos; no sin antes, hacer mias las palabras del Maestro de todos los cubanos, Jose Marti; cuando dijo: "Cuando hay muchos hombres sin decoro, hay siempre otros que tienen en si el decoro de muchos hombres. Esos son los que se rebelan con fuerza terrible contra los que les roban a los pueblos su libertad, que es robarles a los hombres su decoro. En esos hombres van miles de hombres, va un pueblo entero, va la dignidad humana." -JOSE MARTI.

This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the imperial spectacles and startling reversals of fortune related in William H. Prescott's History of the Conquest of Mexico (1843) and History of the Conquest of Peru (1847), and investigates how these accounts inspired fictional adaptations by George A. Henty, H. Rider Haggard, and George Griffith. The revision of history in the Amerindian adventure both entertained young transatlantic audiences and was a vehicle to attract tourism and investment in countries such as Mexico and Peru. Henty, Haggard, and Griffith, moreover, used their tales of adventure as a platform to impart British values to their readers. Such values compel the characters and narrators of the novels discussed to act as cultural mediators, to acquire indigenous languages and adopt native ways of being, and, in several of the romance adventures under consideration, to marry Mexican or Incan noblewomen. Part I, Conquest, examines George Henty’s By Right of Conquest: Or, With Cortez in Mexico (1891), H. Rider Haggard’s Montezuma’s Daughter (1893), and George Griffith’s Virgin of the Sun: A Tale of the Conquest of Peru (1898). Part II, Reclamation, argues that English re-writings of history work to eclipse the Spanish in Haggard’s Virgin the Sun (1922), Henty’s Treasure of the Incas (1902) and Griffith’s Romance of Golden Star (1897).

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!
