Este libro es una clara muestra de que la historia, para ser verdaderamente humana, no puede consistir en un mero conjunto de datos económicos y políticos. En efecto, por sus páginas desfilan cuarenta y seis sacerdotes que, a menudo con medios muy pobres, cambiaron el mundo a su alrededor como fundadores, teólogos, predicadores, simples curas de parroquia, mártires, misioneros, profesores o santos. Los sacerdotes seleccionados se han dividido en siete grupos: maestros del espíritu, misioneros de pueblos lejanos, perseguidos a causa de la justicia, grandes teólogos, sacerdotes que se anticiparon a su tiempo, apóstoles de la caridad y los dedicados a diversos apostolados. No todos los sacerdotes descritos son santos (aunque muchos estén en camino de ser reconocidos como tales), pero todos dejaron sin duda una profunda huella en el siglo XX.

This volume presents a long-overdue synthesis and update on West Mexican archaeology. Ancient West Mexico has often been portrayed as a ‘marginal’ or ‘underdeveloped’ area of Mesoamerica. This book shows that the opposite is true and that it played a critical role in the cultural and historical development of the Mesoamerican ecumene.

The turn of the twentieth century was a time of explosive growth for American cities, a time of nascent hopes and apparently limitless possibilities. In Children of the City, David Nasaw re-creates this period in our social history from the vantage point of the children who grew up then. Drawing on hundreds of memoirs, autobiographies, oral histories and unpublished—and until now unexamined—primary source materials from cities across the country, he provides us with a warm and eloquent portrait of these children, their families, their daily lives, their fears, and their dreams. Illustrated with 68 photographs from the period, many never before published, Children of the City offers a vibrant portrait of a time when our cities and our grandparents were young.
