La historia oficial nos ha acostumbrado a un pasado de bronce, habitado casi siempre por voces masculinas. Sin embargo, en el reverso de ese relato, las mujeres del México Antiguo, entre los años 1519 y 1521, sostuvieron la vida social, polÃtica y cultural de una era que cambió para siempre. Inspirado en las investigaciones de la doctora Clementina Battcock y arropado por el espÃritu de memoria del Paseo de la Mujer Mexicana, este libro nace como un acto de justicia y visibilidad.
Es una invitación a viajar al corazón del periodo prehispánico y a los primeros años del encuentro con el mundo europeo, para resignificar el legado de aquellas mujeres cuyas vidas transcurrieron en nuestra tierra y cuyos ecos, hasta hoy, reclaman ser escuchados con respeto y admiración. Cómo acercarnos a los silencios que el tiempo dejó en los archivos?
A través de la investigación rigurosa, pero también de la creatividad y la imaginación, Blanca López de Mariscal, Denise Carpinteyro, Gabriela Riveros, MarÃa De Alva, Mónica Castellanos y SofÃa Segovia se reúnen en este volumen para devolverle el pulso, la voz y la humanidad a las mujeres de nuestro pasado, acompañadas por las sutiles y hermosas ilustraciones de Gabriela Cantú Westendarp. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Official history has accustomed us to a monumental vision of the past, one shaped almost entirely by male voices. Yet behind that familiar narrative, the women of Ancient Mexico, during the years 1519 to 1521, sustained the social, political, and cultural life of an era that would change history forever. Inspired by the research of Dr. Clementina Battcock and guided by the spirit of remembrance embodied by the Paseo de la Mujer Mexicana (Walk of the Mexican Woman), this book is an act of recognition and historical justice. It invites readers on a journey into the heart of the pre-Hispanic world and the first years of contact with Europe, offering a new appreciation of the legacy of the women whose lives unfolded in the land we now know as Mexico, and whose voices still call to be heard with the respect and admiration they deserve. How can we recover the stories hidden within the silences of history?
Through rigorous research, as well as creativity and imagination, Blanca López de Mariscal, Denise Carpinteyro, Gabriela Riveros, MarÃa De Alva, Mónica Castellanos, and SofÃa Segovia come together in this remarkable collection to restore the heartbeat, the voices, and the humanity of the women of Mexico's past. Their work is beautifully complemented by the delicate and evocative illustrations of Gabriela Cantú Westendarp.
