LETRAS INTERIORES

Las literaturas regionales se reconocen a sí mismas en un intercambio acotado por su tiempo y espacios propios. En el caso del Estado de Guanajuato, se origina en fechas recientes un movimiento de tertulias literarias que, de modo itinerante, ha recorrido prácticamente todo el mundo. Con ese dinamismo se ha podido integrar una nómina amplia de escritores que no sólo engrosan la propia tertulia, sino que dan testimonio de la vitalidad del orbe de las letras en este sector del mundo. Benjamín Valdivia La Antología de Escritores Guanajuatenses es un proyecto de gran importancia para la Red Estatal de Tertulias Literarias de Guanajuato, ya que no sólo contiene la participación de los integrantes y simpatizantes de la Red, provenientes de treinta municipios de la entidad, sino que su impresión, permitirá que sea una obra que permanezca como una huella en la historia, una evidencia perenne y a la vez tangible del quehacer literario en este momento.

Pancho Villa's Revolution by Headlines

This colorful history of Pancho Villa as a propagandist tells how the legendary guerrilla waged war not only on the battlefield but also in the mass media, where he promoted his foreign policy of friendship with the United States in a bid to gain American backing for the Mexican Revolution between 1913 and 1915. Mark Cronlund Anderson explores issues of race, identity, and the power of the mass media to explain how Villa dueled with his archrivals, Mexican dictator Victoriano Huerta and Villa’s ostensible colleague-in-arms, Venustiano Carranza, using a sophisticated public-relations machine.

Mexico in Verse

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...

Ugly Stories of the Peruvian Agrarian Reform

Ugly Stories of the Peruvian Agrarian Reform reveals the human drama behind the radical agrarian reform that unfolded in Peru during the final three decades of the twentieth century. That process began in 1969, when the left-leaning military government implemented a drastic program of land expropriation. Seized lands were turned into worker-managed cooperatives. After those cooperatives began to falter and the country returned to civilian rule in the 1980s, members distributed the land among themselves. In 1995–96, as the agrarian reform process was winding down and neoliberal policies were undoing leftist reforms, the Peruvian anthropologist Enrique Mayer traveled throughout the country, ...
