Mitos de la Historia Mexicana: de Hidalgo a Zedillo / Myths of Mexican History - Paperback

by Alejandro Rosas (Author)

Mitos de la historia mexicana te invita a redescubrir el pasado mexicano, para no dejarlo de lado en la construcci?n del futuro.

La historia oficial impidio que los mexicanos conoci?ramos nuestro pasado con todos sus matices; nos present? personajes perfectos e infalibles que enfrentaban a terribles y despiadados enemigos; caudillos que hablaban por el pueblo contra villanos que lo enga?aban. En blanco y negro, esa fue la historia que nos contaron. La presente obra derrumba por completo la historia oficial, acabando con los mitos que permearon la conciencia de la sociedad. A trav?s de sus p?ginas encontraremos a un Hidalgo que ordenaba matanzas de espa?oles, a un Ju?rez que nunca se vio como indio; a un Madero que design? ministros a sus familiares, o a todos esos jefes revolucionarios: Villa, Zapata, Carranza, Obreg?n y Calles, que terminaron enfrascados en una terrible lucha por el poder, asesin?ndose unos a otros.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Mitos de la historia mexicana (Myths of Mexican History) invites you to rediscover the Mexican past, so as not to leave it aside in the construction of the future.

Official history prevented Mexicans from knowing our past with all its nuances; he presented us with perfect and infallible characters who faced terrible and merciless enemies; caudillos who spoke for the people against villains who deceived them. In black and white, that was the story we were told. This work completely demolishes the official history, putting an end to the myths that permeated the consciousness of society. Through its pages we will find a Hidalgo who ordered the massacres of Spaniards, a Ju?rez who never saw himself as an Indian; to a Madero who appointed his relatives as ministers, or to all those revolutionary leaders: Villa, Zapata, Carranza, Obreg?n and Calles, who ended up engaged in a terrible struggle for power, murdering each other.
