Description

This book not only explores the ways in which centuries of Spanish occupation have influenced language, art, religion, politics, and the economy, but also gives coverage to Mexico's pre-Columbian civilizations and contemporary indigenous cultures. By giving voice to those who are not usually represented in the official histories, it attempts to overcome the tendency to abandon the fate of the indigenous people a century after the Spanish conquest.
